Low Voltage Directive (Low Voltage Directive, LVD) has been adopted by the European Union in 1973. In the year of 1990, CE marking on low-voltage devices was stipulated for the free entry of these products into the European Union. For manufacturers to place a CE marking on their products, they must be tested for such electrical tools in an appropriate test and inspection facility or laboratory.
According to the Low Voltage Directive, electrical devices which are required to perform electrical safety tests in this way are electrical tools that require alternating current between 50 volts and 1000 volts for operation or require direct current flow between 75 volts and 1500 volts.
Designs made in accordance with these specifications electric vehicles before they are put on the market, they will be subjected to the necessary conformity tests and CE marking and products can only have free movement in the European Union. In product groups included in the New Approach directives, CE labelIt is accepted that the product is suitable for the European Union common market. The CE marking is ensured by the New Approach Directives supported by standards. These standards define the minimum requirements to ensure the safety of products during the use of the products. Therefore, CE label should not be placed on products which do not comply with these conditions.
At this point, the test and inspection institutions or laboratories that will carry out the tests have great responsibility. These organizations carry out the testing procedures based on the authorization received from national or international accreditation bodies. The most important features are that they have to maintain these activities impartially and independently.
It is the responsibility of the manufacturers to place the CE label on the products. Producer firms have to bear the sanctions on it if they do not carry out these tests or if the test results are negative, they put the CE label on the product. Products sent to the European Union in this way can be collected from the market in the future, but also fines for the company can be applied.
In our country, within the framework of harmonization with the European Union, standardization studies have gained importance. Especially the companies that produce machinery and white goods are more aware of LVD tests. These products are not offered to the domestic market nor to the European Union market without going through the necessary conformity and safety tests.
The machine manufacturers are interested in EN 60204-1 standard (safety in machinery, electrical equipment of machines) and white goods manufacturers in EN 60335-1 standard (safety rules, electrical appliances used in household and similar places).
TÜRCERT also carries out inspection and testing, conformity assessment studies as well as certification studies. He has received the necessary powers from the accreditation bodies. Therefore, LVD tests If you want to get more detailed information about LVD tests and LVD tests, even if you want to make LVD tests, you should come to TÜRCERT without hesitation. TÜRCERT is able to meet all kinds of demands related to testing and inspection processes with its expert staff and staff.
