LVD TESTS

The low voltage directive (LVD) (2014/35/EU) provides a high level of protection for electrical equipment within certain voltage limits for European citizens and is applied in European and many world markets.

About the low voltage directive (LVD) The LVD covers health and safety risks in electrical equipment operating with input or output voltage, among them.

While performing the LVD test, it is necessary to choose the standard suitable for the purpose and usage environment of the electrical device. All applicable tests and examinations in the standard related to the product should be examined one by one during the LVD test. During the LVD test or before the LVD test, the environmental conditions in the standard, if there are preconditioning processes, the appropriate environmental conditions must be provided before the test.

Before starting the LVD test, the single line diagram, user manual, label, voltage and frequency declaration values ??of the device should be examined. In addition, if there are critical components in the device, test reports or conformity documents must be checked before the LVD test.

The LVD test determines whether all the standard requirements of the product are met, with the relevant test, inspection and documentation control.

Care should be taken to ensure that the products to be tested for LVD comply with current guidelines. Since CE certification standards are frequently updated, it is extremely important to pay attention to the suitability of newly produced machines.
