Are UL 2849 and UL 2771 available to the casual viewer on the internet. I would expect that you have to buy the test standards.
They're not free unless you have an active file with them. You'd have to buy a copy or subscribe to their services. Then, if the standard is based on an international one, rather than a legacy UL standard, it's not even included in the subscription. (which is kind of a racket, IMO)

You might be able to find older versions of those standards, which will be mostly the same, in a web search

Snap-on subscribes to their services and those aren't based on international standards, so I can view the standards and answer your questions, probably.

Oh, I see you're pretty local to me, we can get together for a beer some time and talk about it. I'm just over The Cheddar Curtain in Kenosha. Drop me a line if interested.
