Electrical Safety
Overview
Electrical Safety
All Electrical equipment should acquire respective electrical safety certificates for selling that equipment in respective country so it can show the compliance with what are required from that country regarding safe use and performance. ACTS is providing a service of testing and generating test reports which can be used for every country registration including IECEE and KOLAS.
▶ CB Test: CBTL (IECEE-CB Scheme)
This scheme is allowing test results which were done by other IECEE member country in another IECEE member country for electrical equipment and its components. This scheme is utilizing when certain electrical equipment or components are needed to register in certain IECEE member country by lowering international trading wall. ACTS got accredited as CBTL from IECEE and can provide CB test and issue CB test report for following product categories.
Accredited scope of products
- MEAS Category: Measurement, Control and Laboratory equipment ( i.e. IVD, DMM)
- MED Category: Electrical equipment for medical use (i.e. Ultrasound Diagnostic, X-ray, Blood glucose meter)
▶ NRTL Test (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory)
 |
NRTLs are USA OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) accredited laboratories. This program was established for securing customer’s safety and health and, as of 2018, 18 different accredited laboratories are listed including UL, TUV, CSA, ETL, and MET. Even this is not listed as mandatory requirement for certain states of USA, generally USA buyers are not accepting to purchase non-NRTL marked products and do not give 100% trust to that product. ACTS is proceeding safety test for our customer to sell and distribute their product in USA.
▶ ULcertification (UL:Underwriters Laboratories Inc)
UL is certifying program to secure the safety of product and protect customer. It got established as non-profit organization at 1894 by getting approval from USA Dalloway State and it has been recognized as the top agency for product safety test and maintaining those with multiple years’ experiences and capabilities.
 |
UL mark can be attached in product when it got passed defined test by UL. That mark can be attached in product itself or package if necessary and it can be used commercial material, promotion materials, and homepage as well.
▶ KOLAS Test (Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme)
 |
The Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS) is the governmental accreditation body established on December 8, 1992 and administered by the Korean Agency of Technology and Standards (KATS). The KOLAS Secretariat, which is responsible for the day-to-day running of KOLAS is currently operated by the Conformity Assessment Division for accreditation of testing, calibration laboratories and inspection bodies. The division belongs to the Bureau of Conformity Policy of KATS and the Administrator of KATS represents KOLAS externally.
KOLAS has been actively participating in the international activities relating to testing and calibration in corporation with the Asia-Pacific Laboratory Cooperation (APLAC) and the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC). KOLAS signed Asia-Pacific Laboratory Cooperation Mutual Recognition Arrangement (APLAC MRA) in Sydney on October 23, 1998 for testing and May 22, 2001 for calibration. Since then, members of the APLAC MRA have expanded to 27 ones from 17 economies. KOLAS is also a signatory to the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation Mutual Recognition Arrangement (ILAC MRA) which was signed in Washington DC on November 2, 2000. It now involves 73 member bodies from 61 economies. The ILAC arrangement will provide technical underpinning to international trade by promoting cross-border stakeholder's confidence and acceptance of accredited testing and calibration results
