Skip the trenching, not the certification—that’s the difference between a solar system that installs easy and one that qualifies for the project.
SOLTECH’s HYPER Series and SUNLIKE Series are UL Listed as complete systems under UL 8801, so whether you’re an end-user, a contractor, or a municipal project engineer, you can spec, install, and inspect with confidence.
The Problem: “UL Listed” Isn’t Always What It Sounds Like
Not every solar fixture on the market is UL Listed as a whole. Many only have UL Recognized components—a battery here, a controller there, with no certification covering how they work together as a system.
Why That Matters:
- A UL Recognized part is tested on its own, for use inside another product. It’s not approved for standalone use and doesn’t guarantee the finished fixture is safe.
- A UL Listed system—like HYPER and SUNLIKE is tested and certified as a whole: battery, controls, and luminaire evaluated together under UL 8801.
- Inspectors look for the system-level mark. A pile of individually recognized parts can mean a failed inspection, a change order, or a liability gap nobody wants to own.
What This Solves for You
- Meet Code & Regulations UL 8801 is the system-level standard inspectors and AHJs increasingly expect. A fully Listed system removes the guesswork and the risk of a red tag on residential, commercial, and municipal projects.
- Qualify for Energy Efficiency Programs Many utility rebates and municipal energy programs require third-party certification. UL Listing is often the baseline documentation needed to qualify—one less hurdle in your paperwork.
- Convenience & Reliability No trenching. No electrical infrastructure. No utility connection to coordinate. Solar eliminates the trenching and conduit work that drives up both cost and timeline on grid-tied lighting, while a system-level UL Listing means the reliability is engineered in, not assumed.
