Eurofins Electrical & Electronics provides comprehensive services for ENEC Certification, a crucial European safety mark for electrical products.

We guide manufacturers through the entire process, from initial product evaluation and testing to final certification. Our expertise covers a wide range of product categories, ensuring compliance with relevant European standards (EN standards).

We offer pre-compliance testing, gap analysis, and full type testing in our accredited laboratories. Our streamlined approach helps manufacturers efficiently achieve ENEC certification, demonstrating product safety and gaining market access across Europe, building consumer trust and brand reputation.

Manufacturers and suppliers of electrical products face the challenge of demonstrating the safety and reliability of their goods across multiple European countries, each with its own national certification requirements.

While the CE marking is mandatory for many products entering the European Economic Area, it is often based on self-declaration by the manufacturer and does not involve mandatory independent third-party testing or ongoing production surveillance. This can lead to varying levels of consumer confidence and potential difficulties in navigating diverse national safety requirements, creating market fragmentation and potential safety concerns for end-users.

Without a harmonized, high-quality mark, it can be challenging for manufacturers to clearly communicate their commitment to safety and for consumers and authorities to easily identify products that have been independently verified to meet rigorous standards.

ENEC Certification - A Mark of Verified European Electrical Safety

ENEC (European Norms Electrical Certification) provides a robust solution to this problem by offering a voluntary, high-quality European safety mark for electrical products. The ENEC mark signifies that a product has been independently tested and certified by accredited third-party testing laboratories and certification bodies to comply with relevant European safety standards (EN).

Unlike the CE mark, ENEC certification involves a rigorous process that includes initial type testing, factory inspections, and ongoing market surveillance and product re-testing. This comprehensive approach ensures consistent product quality and safety over time.

By obtaining ENEC certification, manufacturers can:

• Enhance Consumer Confidence: The recognisable ENEC mark provides clear assurance to consumers and authorities that a product has undergone stringent independent safety testing.
• Gain Market Access: ENEC certification is widely recognised and respected across Europe, simplifying market access and reducing the need for multiple national certifications.
• Reduce Liability Risks: Independent verification of safety standards can help mitigate potential product liability issues.
• Differentiate Products: The ENEC mark serves as a clear differentiator in a competitive market, highlighting a manufacturer's commitment to quality and safety that goes beyond minimum regulatory requirements.

In essence, ENEC certification addresses the limitations of self-declared conformity by providing a credible and harmonized system for verifying the safety of electrical products across Europe, benefiting manufacturers, authorities, and consumers alike.

With Eurofins Electrical & Electronics, you can undertake your electrical safety testing and obtain ENEC certification, alongside any other certification you may need such as CB or a MET NRTL and deliver trusted, compliant products to your customers, now and into the future.

Go beyond self-declaration for CE marking with an independent ENEC certification of your products.

If you are placing products onto the EU market that fall under the scope of the Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU), Eurofins Electrical & Electronics can test your product, allowing you to self-declare to this Directive.

By undertaking an independent ENEC certification of your products alongside your electrical safety testing, you can demonstrate on-going consistent product quality and safety over time.

Eurofins Electrical & Electronics can provide ENEC Certification through its laboratories in Switzerland, Shanghai and in the UK.
