Introduction to CB Certification for Lighting

The IECEE-CB scheme is a global mutual recognition system for the safety testing results of electrical products. Through a single test, manufacturers can obtain a CB test certificate and report, which can then be used to apply for certifications in multiple countries within the CB scheme without the need for repeated testing. When applying, it is essential to specify the countries to be included in the report so that their specific requirements can be covered during the testing.

Required Documentation for Lighting CB Certification

1. Application form, trademark declaration letter, declaration of conformity

2. Product manual

3. Product specification

4. Circuit diagram

5. PCB layout

6. Specifications of key components

7. CDF key components list

8. BOM list

9. CB label, etc.

Important Considerations for Applying for a CB Certificate for Lighting

1. When applying for CB certification, it is necessary to inform which countries are to be included in the report so that the corresponding national differences can be taken into account during testing.

2. When applying for CB certification, if subsequent IECEE registration is required, be sure to confirm the information of the applicant and the manufacturer (the IECEE registration certificate will only reflect the information of the manufacturer/importer).

3. For each signed document in the CB to IECEE registration process, be sure to use company letterhead.
