What Is Electrical Safety Testing?
Electrical safety testing is essential to ensure safe operating standards for any product that uses electricity. Testing electrical and electronic products for electrical safety is intended to identify the potential risk of electrical shock to users. Even though a product requires an electrical power source and uses electrical or electronic components, it should not present an electrical shock hazard to the user.
Four fundamental hazards must be evaluated as part of any product safety evaluation:
• Electrical shock
• Mechanical/physical injury
• Low voltage/high energy
• Fire
Why is electrical safety testing important?
Testing is the only way to identify manufacturing faults that could compromise the electrical safety of a product out in the field. Thorough electrical safety testing protects against the risk of electrical shock so that products can be used for their intended purpose with minimal chance of injury occurring. Electrical safety is mandatory for legal access to every major country in the world. It can help prevent unsafe products from reaching the market, reducing the number of deaths and injuries, as well as costly product recalls and potential litigation. Manufacturers whose products have been tested and certified to applicable electrical safety standards send a clear signal to buyers and the general public of their commitment to user safety.
