UL 508A MTR Qualification Examination v3
The UL 508A MTR Program provides a means for a manufacturer’s staff to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the UL 508A Standard. “Qualification as an MTR provides the manufacturer, UL and code authorities the confidence that qualified, competent staff are engaged in the design and manufacture of industrial control panels bearing the UL Mark,” stated Tony Robertson, program manager, energy and industrial automation, UL.
To qualify as an MTR, an individual must successfully complete an online examination with a passing score of 80% or higher. The examination is administered online through UL and is available on-demand through any computer, laptop or tablet with internet access.
Upon successful completion of the UL 508A MTR examination, the individual is qualified for a three year period. At the end of the three-year period, the individual must requalify by the successful completion of the current UL 508A MTR examination.

The role of
Control Engineers
Control engineers are knowledgeable in overall plant systems and the interactions of processes.
They install and service a variety of systems including safety and security, energy delivery (hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical), communication, and process control systems.
They also install and service measuring and indicating instruments to monitor process control variables, monitor the operation of equipment and measure the characteristics of the material within a process. Control engineers work with final control devices such as valves, actuators and positioners to manipulate the process medium.
Control engineers inspect and test the operation of instruments and systems to diagnose faults and verify repairs. They establish and optimize process control strategies, and configure related systems such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Distributed Control Systems (DCSs), Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems.
