The IECEE CB scheme acts as a global framework for mutual acceptance of test reports and certificates regarding the safety of electrical and electronic components, equipment, and products. It also promotes the harmonisation of national standards with International Standards and cooperation among accepted NCBs worldwide.

With the expertise in testing and verifying products according to ETSI EN 303 645, TÜV SÜD has expanded its certification portfolio offerings for CIoT products to their customers. TÜV SÜD is now positioned to create even higher value for consumer-connected product manufacturers and consumers. Through the ETSI EN 303 645 services, products fulfilling the requirements will acquire the CB certificate, providing assurance that the products have met the security criteria to safeguard consumers' data and privacy.
