Inspector Perspective – April 2023
AHJ – Question: With the recent approval of some floating-type wire connectors, are jurisdictions excepting wire connectors that comply with 2020 NEC Section 230.46 even though they may not have the marking requirements on the physical connector itself?
Consensus: This will ultimately be up to AHJ discretion, but compliance with 2020 NEC Section 230.46
can be confirmed by methods other than a physical marking on the connector. Please reference UL
Product iQ, and guide information ZMVV for further information.

Question: Do low-voltage lighting systems need to be listed?
Consensus: Low voltage lighting systems shall comply with the listing requirements of the 2020 NEC Section 411.4. These have no exemptions for “safe voltages.”
