Technical tests
tec.nicum engineering
The IEC 60204-1 standard requires the performance of tests as a prerequisite for placing electrical and electronic equipment on the market.
In Europe, the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC is authoritative; outside Europe, other directives and laws refer to this globally valid standard. The prescribed tests include, among others:
- Test for consistent safety potential
- Test of the insulation resistance
- Stress test and measurement of residual voltage
- Test of dielectric strength
These tests, including the standard-compliant documentation of the results, are part of the engineering services offered by tec.nicum worldwide.
