Why Compliance Matters in the Electrical & Electronics Industry?

The electrical and electronics industry plays a crucial role in global markets, and compliance is essential to ensure safety, quality, and environmental responsibility. Compliance not only helps manufacturers meet legal and technical regulations but also protects consumers and enhances market access
  • Global Market Access – Ensures smooth exports to Saudi Arabia, UAE, USA, Europe, and other key markets.
  • Consumer Safety – Prevents hazards like electrical shocks, short circuits, and fire risks.
  • Product Quality & Performance – Guarantees energy efficiency, durability, and compliance with industry standards.
  • Environmental Responsibility – Meets RoHS, WEEE, and EPR regulations for eco-friendly production and waste management.

Testing – Ensuring Product Safety & Performance

Why Testing is Important?

Electrical and electronic devices must pass strict safety, performance, and environmental tests to ensure they are safe, durable, and energy-efficient

Electrical Safety Testing

  • Protection Against Electric Shock – Ensures that users do not come into contact with live parts.
  • Leakage Current Testing – Measures excess current that could cause electric shocks or fires.
  • Earthing & Insulation Resistance – Verifies proper grounding to prevent electrical failures.
  • Dielectric Strength (High Voltage Test) – Ensures insulation can withstand high-voltage conditions.

Mechanical Safety Testing

  • Housing Strength & Impact Resistance – Ensures product enclosures are strong enough to withstand accidental impacts.
  • Mechanical Stability – Verifies that products remain stable and do not collapse under normal use.

Performance & Functional Testing

  • Temperature Rise & Overheating Protection – Ensures electrical devices do not overheat during normal use.
  • Energy Efficiency Testing – Ensures compliance with BEE (India), Energy Star (USA), and ErP (EU) standards.

Environmental & Sustainability Testing

  • RoHS Testing – Restricts hazardous substances like lead, mercury, and cadmium.
  • Ingress Protection (IP Rating) – Verifies water and dust resistance for outdoor and industrial applications.
  • WEEE Compliance Testing – Ensures proper e-waste recycling and disposal.

Applicable Standards & Regulations:

  • IEC & ISO Standards – International electrical safety standards.
  • CE (European Union) – Mandatory for electrical products in the EU.
  • FCC (USA) – Ensures compliance with electromagnetic interference (EMI) standards.
  • BIS CRS (India) – Compulsory certification for electronic goods.
  • RoHS & WEEE – Environmental compliance for hazardous substances & e-waste management.
Markek’s Role: We help businesses connect with accredited labs, ensuring seamless testing services for compliance
