Supporting you with electrical safety testing services 

Safety testing of electrical and electronic equipment is undertaken to demonstrate that a product meets specified criteria, in order to help ensure that it is safe and the risk of injury and damage to property has been appropriately mitigated.  

An assessment of a product will consider hazards associated with that equipment, generally including, but not limited to:

  • Mechanical hazards
  • Electrical hazards
  • Thermal & fire hazards
  • Noise hazards
  • Vibration hazards
  • Radiation hazards
  • Material or substance hazards
  • Ergonomic hazards 

A range of tests, visual assessments, evaluations and documentation reviews are undertaken in order to compile evidence that a product meets the safety criteria, which is usually defined in one or more international, or national safety standards.   

 

Meet electrical safety standards for global markets 

Our diverse range of experts, combined with a global network of accredited laboratories helps bring your electrical and electronic products from early development to end use faster and more cost-effectively.

Through ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½’s certification services, you can access major international electrical safety certification schemes, including the IECEE CB Scheme (operating in over 50 countries), CE marking (Europe), and NRTL certification (North America).
