A CB Test Report is a standardized
report in a clause-by-clause format referencing
the requirements of the relevant IEC Standard. The
report provides clear and unambiguous results of
all the required tests, measurements, verifications,
inspections and evaluations. It also contains photographs,
circuit schematics, artwork drawings as well as
description of the product. Additional tests for
the national differences of the target country are
documented in the supplements to the CB Test Report.
The National Certification Body (NCB) or a CB Testing
Laboratory (CBTL) will test your product to all
harmonized standards and to any National Differences
required for the countries in which you want to
market your product. If the product is found to
be in compliance with the standard, the CBTL or
NCB will issue a CB Test Report, based on which
the NCB will issue a CB Test Certificate that you
can use to obtain national certifications in all
other member countries of the CB Scheme.
Initiating the process is simple. You'll need to
provide Beide Services with four basic pieces of
information, including:
1、A description of your product, including illustrations,
schematics, wiring diagrams, a copy of the marking
plate and any appropriate product information.
2、A list of countries where you want to market your
product.
3、The name and address of the company responsible
for the product.
4、A list of manufacturing locations.
Beide Global Approval -GS
The TUV GS Mark has its roots
in the German equipment safety law but the literal
translation of "GS" does not stand for
German safety, but rather "safety tested".
The TUV GS Mark is a voluntary certification and
is a popular recognized symbol in Germany for safety-tested
products.
The GS Mark can only be applied to finished products
whose end use is known. Independent product testing
is carried out by accredited labs which have been
accredited by the Zentralstelle de L?nder für Sicherheit-ZLS
(Central Office of Safety of the German L?nder).
The GS Mark may only be awarded by ZLS notified
certified bodies. Likewise, the product production
process must be audited by the certification body.
To obtain the TUV GS Mark?
1、 Obtain an application form.
2、 Provide complete product technical information
describing components and materials plus schematics.
3、 Include a user manual.
4、 Provide a Declaration of Conformity and EMC test
results which may not be applicable for all products.
5、 Provide a test sample.
6、 Witness Safety testing can be provided by Beide
Services.
Beide Global Approval-UL/CUL
The UL Marks are registered certification
marks of Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). UL
is an independent, not-for-profit, product safety
testing and certification organization. The UL Marks
may only be used on or in connection with products
certified by UL and under the terms of written agreement
with UL.
The UL Mark on a product means that UL has tested
and evaluated representative samples of that product
and determined that it meets UL's requirements.
The requirements are primarily based on UL's own
published Standards for Safety.
C-UL Mark is the UL Mark for Canada. With the c-UL
Mark you can sell your product in Canada with no
problem, just like CSA approval. The products with
this type of mark have been evaluated to Canadian
safety requirements, which are somewhat different
from US safety requirements.
What is the process?
1、 Contact Beide Services for witness testing or
a UL Customer Service Representative.
2、 Provide a complete description of the product
to Beide Services or UL, list all components, include
circuit diagrams, explore diagram, bill of materials,

Beide Global Approval -FCC
What is FCC? (Federal
Communications Commission)
To fulfill the responsibility based on Communications
Act, treaties and international regulations, to
promote the utilization of the spectrum recourse
effectively, FCC sets out the technical standard
for radio equipment.
For almost all electronic and electric products,
FCC Part 15 and FCC part 18 are required.
How to obtain FCC?
The FCC rules specify three different equipment
authorization procedures: Verification, Declaration
of Conformity and Certification. There are different
procedures for different requirement.
Verification is a procedure where the manufacturer
makes measurements or takes the necessary steps
to insure that the equipment complies with the appropriate
technical standards.
Declaration of Conformity is a procedure where the
responsible party makes measurement or takes other
necessary steps to ensure that the equipment complies
with the appropriate technical standards.
Certification is an equipment authorization issued
by the Commission, based on representations and
test data submitted by the applicant.
FCC Part 15
FCC Part 15 sets out the regulations under which
an intentional, or incidental radiator may be operated
without an individual license. It also contains
the technical specifications, administrative requirements
and other conditions relating to marketing of Part
15 devices.
FCC Part 15 includes four different RF devices:
Unintentional Radiators, Intentional Radiators,
Unlicensed Personal Communications Service Devices
and Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure
Devices.
For almost all electric and electronic devices,
they are included in unintentional radiators. FCC Part 18
The rules in this part regulate industrial, scientific,
and medical equipment (ISM) that emits electromagnetic
energy on frequencies within the radio frequency
spectrum in order to prevent harmful interference
to authorized radio communication services.
Consumer ISM equipment, unless otherwise specified,
must be authorized under either the Declaration
of Conformity or certification procedure prior to
use or marketing

Beide Global Approval-C-TICK
The Australian Communications Authority (ACA)
and the Radio Spectrum Management Group (RSM) of
New Zealand have agreed upon a harmonized scheme
in producing the C-Tick Mark that regulates product
EMC compliance.
All electrical and electronic products to be sold
in the Australian and New Zealand markets must comply
with the required applicable EMC emission standards
which apply to both conducted and radiated emissions.
Immunity requirements are not within the scope of
the harmonized scheme. All products must also comply
with applicable safety requirements.
For a product to be placed on the market, it must
be tested to the appropriate standard for conformity
verification by a registered testing laboratory
which then issues a report of conformity. Once a
product has been tested and verified as compliant,
an application must be made to either the Spectrum
Management Agency in Australia or the Ministry of
Commerce in New Zealand for approval to label the
product with the C-Tick Mark. With approval, a suppliers'
code will also be issued. The product label must
also include identification of the manufacturer.
Basic requirements:
1、 Be sure the product is in compliance with the
appropriate standard.
2、 Maintain complete compliance records.
3、 Prepare a Declaration of Conformity (DOC).
4、 Label with the C-Tick Mark
Beide Global Approval -VCCI
apan's VCCI Mark (Voluntary Control Council for
Interference by Information Technology Equipment)
is administered by VCCI for information technology
equipment (ITE) sold in Japan. VCCI requirements
are EMC only and based entirely on CISPR 22. The
VCCI Mark is voluntary, although most ITE equipment
sold in Japan show the VCCI Mark. Product quality
is a perception gained by displaying the VCCI Mark.
Manufacturers must become a member of VCCI to
use the VCCI Mark. Membership is open to all interested
manufacturers worldwide for an initiation fee and
annual membership fee.
Testing must be performed at a VCCI registered
facility. Several such facilities are located in
the United States as well as worldwide. After submission
of compliant test data to the VCCI, a certificate
of compliance will be issued.
Products accepted by the VCCI will have the right
to display a proper VCCI label. The label for Class
A products consists of a statement that the product
has met VCCI requirements for RF emissions, whereas,
Class B products only need to display a simple label…the
VCCI Mark.
