It's necessary to know what UL is. UL is the firm that conducts OSHA-approved safety testing on consumer products. If the product is approved by UL, then it can make sure circuit cables don't explode. At the same time, it's trying to smooth out all the hoverboard-related hiccups by introducing guidelines for hoverboards.

The UL will evaluate the construction of the devices and, if they pass the company's tests, certify them as safe under a new certificate called UL2722 which is also known as “Electrical Systems for self-balancing Scooters,” including the rechargeable battery and charger system combination for use in self-balancing scooters.
