In addition to our laboratory testing capabilities, TÜV SÜD engineers can also perform electrical safety testing at your facility. Doing so enables us to schedule testing at short notice, and to complete most testing in just a few days. This provides manufacturers with an opportunity to obtain certification in the shortest possible time.
Our electrical safety testing is covered by our internationally accepted IECEE CB Scheme accreditation, based on our compliance with ISO 17025.
