CE Certification of products provides a substantial basis of demonstration that a product meets minimum standards of safety and performance ensuring protection of the end user and expected performance and reliability in normal use.
In European Countries we use CE Marking Certificate as the basis for demonstrating that mandatory requirements have been met.
European legislation for product certification specifies conformance assessment based upon the CE Marking Certification system.
CE Marking is attached to a product when there is a relevant European directive which mandates the expected minimum requirements for some aspect of the product’s construction or specification. Manufacturer Company applying the CE Marking provides a declaration of conformity claiming that the product meet the requirements of the European directives (EU) and regulations & lists the key standards which have been supplied.
For LED Lighting products for use in general lighting applications the route for CE Certification is through self certification as shown in the diagram, which means that the manufacturer should declare conformance when they are confident the product meets the requirements.
LED Lighting products for general illumination purposes will be subject to the following key directives under CE Mark Certification :
1. LVD (Low Voltage Directive)- 2006/95/EC
2. 2014/35/EU from 20th April 2016
3. EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive) – 2004/108/EC
4. 2014/30/EU from 20th Apr 2016
5. ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) – 2011/65/EC
6. ERP (Eco Design Directive) and relevant regulations – 2009/125/EC
What should be the content of technical file for LED Lighting Products:
1. A general description of LED light product
2. Manufacturing drawing , BOM , bought out certificate
3. Basic description of operation of the LED light
4. A list of the Directive & harmonized standard applied on to the LED light
5. Results of design calculation , in-house test report , quality assurance plan
6. Safety test reports from NABL
Technical File and Accreditation of Testing for LED Lighting Products:
It is often asked what accreditation is necessary for testing for CE Certification. The quick answer is that it is not a legal requirement that accredited laboratories provide the test reports.
However, the manufacturer/ Exporter Suppliers shall be required to ensure that their technical file can demonstrate that their product meets the relevant requirements of the EU European directives & regulations,
One way in which the manufacturer/exporter,suppliers is to have confidence it has met the requirements is to use test reports from accredited testing laboratories. Challenges by market authorities to any of the claims made about a products conformance may be more easily dealt with when an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory has been involved in the formulation of the test reports.
