Electrical safety tests, also known as Low Voltage Directive (LVD) tests, confirm whether electrical/electronic devices meet the minimum requirements and performance specifications mandated by regulations. With thousands of tests conducted each year and extensive experience in this field, the INTEK laboratory is a reliable partner for companies needing to verify electrical safety.
Electrical Safety LVD Tests
Electrical safety LVD (Low Voltage Directive) tests are conducted to minimize the risk of accidents and damages. These assessments ensure that devices comply with international safety standards, safeguarding users and fulfilling legal obligations. Common tests include insulation tests, heating tests, and endurance tests.
The INTEK laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation to conduct tests on electrical devices that need to be evaluated for thermal and insulation properties.
Standards for Low Voltage Testing
Low voltage tests are governed by various international standards and directives, including EN 61010 for electrical measuring devices, EN 60669 for non-automatic control devices, EN 61800-5-x for variable speed electrical drives, and EN 60947 for industrial control devices. These standards establish test parameters, procedures, and evaluation criteria to ensure device compliance and safety.
