Views :
Update time : 2024-07-19

To enter the global market and gain acceptance from public institutions, retailers, and consumers, lighting products must undergo testing and certification. For the European Union, CE and ERP certifications are requiRED, while the United States requires UL and FCC certifications. Depending on the type of lighting equipment and market scope, the tests include electrical and photobiological safety, energy efficiency, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and cheMICal testing.
