As we move ever closer to a global economy, it becomes increasingly important for manufacturers to ensure that their product compliance programs address wordwide requirements in an ever increasingly efficient manner.
One program, implemented by IECEE (IEC System for Conformity testing and Certification of Electrotechnical Equipment and Components), known as the CB Scheme, may be of primary importance to manufacturers. The Scheme is intended to reduce obstacles to international trade which arise from having to meet different national certification or approval criteria.
However, if a manufacturer participates in some form of supervised testing program under the auspices of an NCB, there are some countries which, although they are full participants in the Scheme, have certain levels of acceptance which may be unkown to manufacturers who are fully expectant of un-impeeded entries into participating countries. Follw the link below for a breakdown, by country, of the different levels of acceptance;
