(Copied from UL, link: http://industries.ul.com/blog/led-driver-type-tl-program-from-ul-2 )

The LED Driver Type TL Program is intended to assist you in gaining greater market access for your LED drivers. This service is also intended to assist end-product LED Luminaire manufacturers improve their speed-to-market by making it easy to source a compliant LED Driver.

With the LED Lighting industry evolving so quickly component manufacturers are constantly upgrading their products. Offering a variety of products affords end users the advantage of using components with specific ratings, varying dimming methods, higher efficiencies or efficacies, etc.

Through the flexibility of the UL Recognized Component program, LED Drivers are often designed with varying constructions and are tested in a variety of ways. This flexibility creates a situation where, in most cases, no two LED Drivers are interchangeable without the need for additional safety considerations. UL’s Type TL Program takes aim at this situation and creates a set of evaluation and testing guidelines to allow for more standardized LED Driver constructions and ratings. By requiring certain construction features, such as an enclosure and provisions for field wiring, we can reduce the amount of considerations required in the end product. By additionally standardizing Temperature Test methods and fault testing criteria we can further reduce the amount of considerations required in the end product.

By minimizing the end product considerations and opening a path for direct substitution, the TL program helps ensure that your products gain market access in the most efficient way possible. The Type TL evaluation method allows component manufacturers to more easily engage their end users and give them confidence they are using the component that best fits their needs.
