The FCC certifies that the United States will accept the A2LA and NVLAP accreditation report!
A2LA is an abbreviation for the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation, which is known as the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation and sometimes abbreviated to AALA.A2LA is the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation organization (International Laboratory Accreditation currency) referred to as "one of the member of ILAC, and China's conformity assessment CNAS/approval committee of China Laboratory Accreditation council for national CNAL, its approval certificate issued by the test or calibration institutions are MRA multilateral mutual recognition in the International organizations, was admitted to each other.
On December 30, 2014, the FCC issued a new law (fcc14-208), which came into effect on July 13, 2015. After that, the FCC no longer accepted the new 2.948 laboratory application.During the 1-year transition period after the new law takes effect, the existing 2.948 laboratory can still carry out the testing work;After 15 months of transition, the FCC no longer accepts test reports from the 2.948 lab.
On June 15, 2016, the FCC issued the document FCC No. 16-74, and will continue to accept the certification application and report issued by non-mra 2.948-listed laboratory.The transition period is extended to July 13, 2017, while Chinese laboratories and related manufacturing enterprises can continue to carry out testing and certification applications in domestic laboratories.The extension of the transition period also raises the possibility of more opportunities for Chinese laboratories.
The federal communications commission (FCC) on March 23, 2017, in a formal authorization A2LA and NVLAP, can have not signed a mutual recognition agreement (MRA) laboratory accreditation checking the testing laboratory of countries and regions, including China.After an extended period in a year on the implementation of the FCC rules, namely, beginning on July 13, 2017, by A2LA audit of the lab in China, will be able to FCC DoC and FCC Certification test, and apply for the corresponding certificate, without sending samples to laboratory abroad.That is to say: the laboratory without authorization A2LA and NVLAP will not be recognized!With America's regulatory system tightened!Whether FCC-DOC -ID, or FCC-VOC is ultimately regulated by a licensed laboratory (A2LA,NVLAP)!Under the recent us amazon LED lamp, because of no NALAP issued the FTC energy efficiency label, and suffered a large number of shelves, the domestic merchants suffered huge losses!From this we can see that the U.S. regulation of the market gradually tightened!!Recommend the merchant to the authorized company.
The FCC (Federal Communications, appointed the Federal Communications Commission), is the national authorities of the radio resource management, similar to China's radio management committee, which in addition to the national radio resource management, and control access to the U.S. market sales of electronic products, whether the electromagnetic interference within limits.The FCC is mandated by the United States.
FCC rules: electronic appliances with a working frequency above 9k hz must be certified by the FCC.
There are three kinds of FCC certifications:
Certification, Doc, and Verification can be understood as the different degree of control of the FCC for different products:
1, Certification: the product has a radio transmitting device must do the FCC Certifiction (infrared emission devices are out of control), its practice is the FCC approved laboratory (from July 13 2016 must be in the future by the FCC Accredited) will detect report submitted to the FCC or UNI (optimal testing laboratory), after checking by the FCC or UNI by issuing the ID number.
2. DoC: common products include IT products, microwave ovens, energy-saving lamps, ballasts and so on.
DOC is an abbreviation of Conformity Declaration.But with the CE conformity report issued for laboratory without qualification requirements the difference is that the FCC DOC report required by the NVLAP CODE (the national laboratory accreditation system) or A2LA (the American association for laboratory accreditation) nuclear and also by the FCC Accredited laboratory to issue.NVLAP CODE or A2LA must be noted in the DOC report, otherwise the report is deemed invalid.
Please note: the products that do DOC can also apply for ID, that is, Certification can also be made.
3. Verification: common products include audio and video products.The laboratory, which is generally recognized by the FCC, issues the test report. It needs to be explained that the product that does Verification cannot apply for ID, which means the FCC will not be accepted.
The classification of FCC certification is based on its function.
Note: the DOC report of the current FCC shall be issued by the laboratory with NVLAP CODE or A2LA and Accredited by the FCC. NALAP CODE must be indicated in the DOC report.Otherwise the report is deemed invalid."
