TÜV Rheinland® now offers the manufacturers a convenient way to show product compliance to both the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and the GS Mark. Regarded as a passport to the European market and a symbol of free trade, the CE Marking demonstrates that a product meets the minimum consumer safety, health, and environmental requirements as outlined by the European Directive. The GS (geprüfte Sicherheit) Mark indicates the product’s full compliance with German Equipment Safety Law including all the law’s electrical, chemical, and ergonomic requirements. The newly offered GS SI demonstrates full compliance with both sets of requirements and includes a statement that the product has complied with Annex I of the LVD (2006/95/EEC). The certificate can also be used in connection with the manufacturer’s EC declaration of conformity according to Annex III of the LVD.Find more information on the TÜV Rheinland website.
