Electrical and Electronic Products

Electrical and electronic products range from household appliances, lighting and cables to chargers, switchgear and consumer electronics. Because they operate on mains power or batteries, their safety depends on design, materials and workmanship that are hard to judge by eye. Insulation, earthing, ratings and marking all matter. Under the PVoC program, products in this category subject to mandatory standards are assessed before shipment. CERTECH reviews the request, test reports and quality documents, inspects the consignment at the supplier and, where valid test reports are not available, draws samples for testing by an accredited or recognised laboratory based on ISO/IEC 17025. The results determine whether a Certificate of Conformity or a Non-Conformity Report is issued.
