BQCIS

Ensuring Electrical Safety and Regulatory Confidence

Electrical safety is essential for product certification under the Low Voltage Directive (LVD), IEC 61010, IEC 60335, and EN 60950 standards. BQCIS performs comprehensive safety evaluations covering insulation resistance, dielectric strength, earth continuity, and protection against electric shock.

Our accredited laboratories simulate normal and fault conditions to assess product integrity, temperature rise, leakage current, and enclosure protection. Testing is traceable to ISO/IEC 17025 requirements and accepted by CE and UL certification bodies.

Whether for household appliances, industrial controls, or IT equipment, BQCIS electrical safety testing ensures compliance and builds trust in your product design.

Key Activities in Electrical Safety Testing

Insulation Resistance Measurement

Determines insulation quality between live parts and accessible metal surfaces.

Dielectric Strength (Hipot) Test

Applies high voltage to confirm insulation withstand capacity without breakdown.

Earth Continuity & Ground Bond

Verifies low-resistance connection between exposed conductive parts and ground.

Leakage Current Measurement

Assesses potential current through insulation to ensure compliance with user-safety limits.

Temperature Rise Test

Monitors component heating under rated load to prevent thermal degradation.

Abnormal Operation Simulation

Evaluates safety performance under single-fault conditions per IEC standards.

Protective Enclosure Verification

Tests IP rating and access to live parts to ensure user protection.

Compliance Reporting

Provides traceable reports and test records aligned with ISO/IEC 17025 requirements.

Component & Material Assessment

Verifying that critical safety components like fuses, switches, and insulation materials are certified and correctly used.

Key Benefits of Electrical Safety Testing (LVD)

Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory Compliance

Meets EU LVD 2014/35/EU and IEC safety standards for global product certification.

User Protection

User Protection & Reliability

Ensures safe operation of equipment and prevents electrical shock or fire hazards.

Certification Readiness

Certification Readiness

Provides verified test data for CE marking, CB scheme, and UL listing applications.

Process Assurance

Process Assurance

Strengthens internal QA/QC systems through traceable and repeatable test protocols.

Success Story

LVD Certification for Smart Home Appliance Series

The Challenge:

A smart home manufacturer required LVD testing for a new appliance line before CE marking and EU market entry.

Our Solution:

BQCIS conducted insulation, dielectric, and leakage tests per IEC 60335 and validated design changes to meet temperature rise limits.

The Result:

All models passed LVD requirements and obtained CE certification within four weeks, enabling on-time market launch.
