Having n NRTL label/listing is a very helpful tool. Having to 'evaluate' items at the time of inspection would be a real nightmare, IMHO.
Off topic but related.....
Recently, an assortment of LED luminaires (mostly surface mounted decorative) are causing a 'stir'. One that was uninstalled for inspection purposes lacks any label/listing; assembly and components. HO/GC are attempting to 'find' some documentation. Transformers/drivers are 'mounted' with either silicone or some adhesive, no facility for EGC, missing nipples/bushings for wiring passing thru the sheetmetal shell, etc. There's about 1-11/2 hours of inspection time & counter time already in this.
