Description : Is there a new standard temperature for heating pads?
Last Answer : Hard to say, really. The NRTL reference is a little odd, as NRTL's don't actually specify codes. Anyway, the two UL standards to look at are: UL130 (Electric Heating Pads) and UL ... journal about Heat Stroke from electric blankets, so this may have been the impetus for the temperature reductions.
