Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and the Importance of Electrical Safety Tests
The safety of electrical appliances is of great importance for both manufacturers and consumers. The European Union’s Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU) is a regulation established to ensure this safety. This regulation sets safety standards for equipment operating at AC voltages between 50V and 1000V and DC voltages between 75V and 1500V. The aim is to minimise electric shock and other potential hazards.
Importance of Electrical Safety Tests
Electrical safety tests are carried out to check whether the appliances comply with certain safety standards. These tests are critical to ensure the safe use of devices and prevent possible accidents. In particular, tests such as electrical insulation, earthing, insulation, overcurrent protection, protection against high voltage are carried out to ensure the safety of the devices.
Advantages of CE Certificate
CE certification indicates that a product complies with European Union directives and can be used safely. Products with CE marking can circulate freely and be placed on the market in the European Economic Area. This gives manufacturers a wide market access. For consumers, the CE marking guarantees that the product is safe, high quality and environmentally friendly.
