Low-Voltage Directive (LVD) 2006/95/EEC — Electrical Safety

The LVD is known to be one of the oldest European single-market directives relating to electrical equipment with 50-1,000 VAC or 75-1,500 VDC Input. Products may include computers, information technology equipment, consumer products, household appliances, laboratory equipment, test and measurement equipment, and power supplies.  

TÜV Rheinland GS Mark
The TÜV hRheinland GS Mark is a widely recognized certification mark that shows conformity with the German Equipment Safety Law. The “GS” translated stands for “safetytested.” The TÜV Rheinland GS Mark is a voluntary test mark that is highly regarded by German and European consumers and manufacturers. The mark is attached to a product to highlight that a third party has tested the product’s safety and other requirements and that a continuous production control is maintained.

The TÜVRheinland GS Mark demonstrates that:
• A representative sample of the product has been evaluated, tested and approved for safety and other requirements
• The production line is inspected on an annual basis
• There is a potential marketing advantage, since it is a voluntary mark

CB Scheme —A One-Stop Passport to the International Marketplace

TÜV Rheinland offers a CB test report and certificate recognized by more than 43 countries, saving time and reducing testing costs. Before exporting products, manufacturers need to connect with an established testing house that offers certification services recognized all over the world.
