ETL certification

American ETL certification mark

ETL is American electronic testing laboratories (Electrical Testing Laboratories)abbreviation. ETL laboratory was founded by inventor Edison in 1896 USA hand,enjoy high reputation in the American and worldwide. Like UL, CSA, ETLaccording to the UL standards or national standards testing USA issued ETL certification mark, can also according to the UL standards or USA national standard and CSA standard or Canadian standard test issuing compositecertification mark. Right below the "us" said applies to American, the bottom left of the "C" said applies to Canada, with both "us" and "C" in two countries areapplicable.

Any mechanical or electrical, mechanical and electrical products with the ETL logo shows as long as the products have reached the minimum required bygenerally accepted American and Canada product safety standards, it is testedin accordance with the relevant product safety standards; but also represent theproduction factory agree to receive regular inspection Strict, in order to ensurethe consistency of product quality, can sold to the USA and Canada market.

ETL also requires the production sites have been tested, and the applicantagree then tracking test regularly on the factory, to ensure that productsconsistently meet this requirement.

ETL certification scope

The related content of ETL certification

ETL certification is the export of products USA and Canada required certification.ETL mark products has been approved by the test of NRTL and SCC America orcanada. ETL Mark Approval and UL or CSA mark has the same effect, and in accordance with the relevant safety standards. The product has the ETL listing mark means, it has to meet the minimum requirements of product safety standards. In addition, ETL mark more said to the production site conforms to the requirements of the standard range, factory audit and follow up regularly by learning to ensure consistency. ETL has more than 100 years. ETL the 3 letters is the appliance testing laboratory in 1896 inventor created by Mr. Edison(Electrical Testing Labs) abbreviation. ETL stands for innovation, influential,independent public product testing and experience.

The ETLus logo (only us, not c): products to enter the market of security cETL mark (only C, not us): the product into the Canadian market security cETLus mark: products to enter the market and the Canadian market safety signs factory inspection of American ETL certification examination 4 times, 2 times a year in Canada; in both a year 4 times.

ETL factory inspection

ETL the need for inspection at the factory certification before, after each quarter will from time to time to follow up the factory inspection, in addition to the cost offactory inspection fee is required to pay a licence fee certificate quarterly. If necessary, the inspector may witness test products or re testing in the laboratory after sampling. Licensee must sign a legal contract with ETL (Service Protocol), it clearly requires the use of manufacturers' responsibility and continuous ETLcolumn and the ETL mark conditions.

ETL certification application

At present, ETL certificate obtained in two ways, one is through CB test report,can also apply directly, submitted the required documents as follows:

1 application form

The 2.CB test certificate copy (direct application does not need to)

3.CB test report photocopy (direct application does not need to)

4 sample

5 other related test results and the data products, such as: product manuals,photos, components list etc..

(such as the CB report through the turn, need to carry on difference test)

What is the difference between UL and ETL?

UL and ETL represent the product through national recognized testing laboratory(NRTL) test, comply with the appropriate safety standards, but also represent theproducers agreed to receive regular inspection Strict, in order to ensure the consistency of product quality. So the real difference is that the service. As the ETL client, you can enjoy the tailored testing, inspection and certification services, high-efficient operation cycle and flexible modes of operation. We are creating ways of cooperation with customers to work more closely, so that yourproducts faster and more smoothly and efficiently into the market.

ETL certification and UL certification of North American market access to the same effect, but the ETL certification costs than UL certification is much lower,generally only half, UL certification and ETL certification, product testing by theCB test report can turn, can save the cost of detection many for you.
