According to the requirements of the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union TR CU 004/2011 “On the Safety of Low Voltage Equipment”, the factory has undergone certification and obtained a certificate of conformity.
The Technical Regulations of the Customs Union (TR CU) are a set of mandatory requirements for products imported and sold in the territory of the Customs Union, which includes Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia, and Kyrgyzstan. These regulations aim to ensure the safety and quality of products, as well as to protect the health and rights of consumers.
The TR CU 004/2011 “On the Safety of Low Voltage Equipment” applies to all low voltage equipment, including household appliances, power tools, and other electrical devices. It sets out the requirements for the design, production, labeling, and testing of low voltage equipment, as well as the procedures for certification and conformity assessment.
In order to comply with the TR CU 004/2011, the factory has undergone a certification process. This process involves testing the product samples in accredited laboratories to ensure that they meet the safety requirements of the Technical Regulations. The certification is carried out by a certification body, which is authorized by the relevant government agency of the Customs Union member state.
After successfully passing the certification process, the factory receives a certificate of conformity, which serves as proof that the product meets the safety requirements of the Technical Regulations. This certificate is valid for up to five years and must be renewed after its expiration.
The certificate of conformity is an important document for both the manufacturer and the consumer. For the manufacturer, it demonstrates their commitment to producing safe and high-quality products, which can enhance their reputation and increase consumer trust. For the consumer, it provides assurance that the product they are purchasing has undergone necessary testing and meets the safety requirements, ensuring their well-being and protection.
In addition to the certification process, the Technical Regulations also require the manufacturer to affix the EAC (Eurasian Conformity) mark on the product. This mark indicates that the product has undergone the necessary conformity assessment procedures and complies with the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union.
In conclusion, the certification and obtaining of a certificate of conformity in accordance with the requirements of the TR CU 004/2011 is a crucial step for manufacturers of low voltage equipment. It not only ensures the safety and quality of products but also demonstrates their compliance with the regulations of the Customs Union. As consumers, we can be confident in the products we purchase knowing that they have undergone necessary testing and meet the necessary safety standards.
