SGS CEBEC Electrical Product Conformity

How can you confirm that your electrical products are safe and compliant with the required standards?

Consumers expect electrical and electronic devices to be of good quality, reliable and safe. To provide consumer confidence, EU regulations exist with specific rules for different types of electrical and electronic products. As a result, certification and safety testing by a recognized organization enables you to demonstrate the conformity of your product.

Introducing a new product in a different country

As well as helping to ensure compliance, having the right certification increases your speed to market when you want to introduce products in other countries. As legislation is harmonized across the EU and sometimes even beyond, marketing a product in multiple countries becomes easier with broadly recognized certifications.

Products for which certification services are available include:

  • Electrical household equipment
  • Luminaires and lighting accessories
  • Electrical installation equipment
  • Electro-medical equipment
  • Information technology, audio/video and measuring equipment

To help you meet local, European and international requirements, an expert certification body can help you obtain a broad range of Certifications. That is where our SGS CEBEC services can help.
