Some additions. When you purchase a large CNC machine or anyother
you could specify additional criteria. When you install a large
machine you tend to put in additional electrical circuits in the
factory which require a permit which would fall under local code or
NEC (National Electrical code). This would end up meeting in
particular NFPA NEC section 70 (for builduings) & 79 (for machines).
This is what gets built most of the time in machines, which
translates to good electrical practice.

CE mark equipment has additional provisions requirements such as for
electrical interference, labeling for EU etc.

UL is good addition for equipment for it has been specifically tested
by a third party (UL) to meet certain criteria (electrical rating,
flammability etc)

Hope this answers some of your interests,
