I have recently discovered that the INCA brand projector & TV lift products are not UL approved. This company seems to be a major player in this type of product, and the product seems to be built to incredibly high mechanical specifications.
Anyone know the ramifications of installing unlisted equipment in residential applications?
I have also discovered that the drive motors for these products have no "safety reverse" mechanism for automatically stopping or reversing if something (like the client's fingers) are in the way of the closure panel of the lift.
An LCD lift I recently installed from them included an external connector box which had a male AC plug & 3 multipin connectors for controllers. One of the multipin connectors has MALE pins (touchable with fingers) that are live with 120VAC when the unit is plugged in! There are no warnings about this on the box or in the instruction manual for the lift.
I'm notably concerned. Is my concern justified?
Anyone?
