moderate degree of protection against attack by common mechanical and electrical
hand tools and any combination of these means.
Successfully resisted entry for a net working time of 30 minutes when
attacked, by a skilled team of technicians, with common hand tools, picking
tools, mechanical or portable electric tools, grinding points, carbide drills
and pressure applying devices or mechanisms.
U.L.® Also provides a
"TR" rating, example: TRTL-15 or TRTL-30. The "TR" rating
shows that in addition to the safe or vault being tool resistant (TL) the unit
rated is also torch resistant, example: oxyacetylene cutting torches or burning
bars or sticks. When an "X6" appears after the rating, example:
TRTL-30X6. This designates the safe or vault meets the rated specification on
all six sides.
