TESTED FOR SAFETY
UL and ETL standards include a test for the safety of all electrical elements, appliances and components that are made available to the public. The windows pictured, like every Point Five radiant window, are being subjected to a "HiPot" (high potential) test wherein the unit is subjected to over 1200 volts. This charge is more than ten times normal line voltage. In addition, our standards dictate a leakage of less than 5 mA under this test when industry standards are 50 to 100 mA. Safety in your space is more important to us than anything.
