US and Canada cTUVus
Introduction
Simple Steps to obtain the cTÜVus mark
The process is very easy. Products must be tested and evaluated to Canadian and U.S. National Standards.
This may be accomplished simultaneously when products are submitted to TÜV for testing for the TÜV-GS mark or CE Marking.
In many cases, the U.S. and Canadian standards are now harmonized to the IEC standards, with bi-national standards existing between Canada and the U.S. This means that with the exception of some national deviations, a single standard is basically used to evaluate the product. In other situations, standards are not as similar. However, similar testing can still be grouped together during the investigation.
U.S. & Canadian Product Approvals
