Certification Body (CB) Scheme
By opting for a CB Certificate issued by TÜV SÜD, you avoid the long and costly process of obtaining individual national approvals for almost every export country. After the testing of your product has been completed successfully, we provide you with a CB Test Report and CB Certificate. This product “passport” enables you to apply to any CB Scheme member worldwide to receive their national certification marks.
The CB scheme is based around the use of International standards such as:
IEC 60950-1 Safety of Information Technology Equipment
IEC 60065 Safety of Audio, Video, and Similar Equipment
IEC 60335-1; -2-x Safety of Household and Similar Equipment
IEC 61010-1 Safety of Laboratory, Control and Measurement
IEC 60601 Medical Electical Equipment
CISPR 22; CISPR 24 EMC requirements of Information Technology Equipment
Nationally Recognised Testing Laboratories (NRTL)
NRTLs are third-party organisations recognised by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) under Federal Code 29 CFR 1910.7 to provide product safety testing and certification services for products used in the US workplace. In Canada, the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) mandates that an SCC-accredited Certification Body perform such services. TÜV SÜD is appointed to certify products for both the US and Canada.
There are four steps that lead to the issue of an NRTL:
Report & sample reviewed by Technical Certifier
Ongoing factory surveillance visits
A TÜV SÜD NRTL Certification makes it easier to sell products and convince customers and enforcement authorities that you satisfy their minimum safety requirements.
