Produktzertifizierung für den Zutritt zum Weltmarkt
Erweitern Sie Ihren Absatz mit den zum Teil zwingenden länderspezifischen Zulassungen basierend auf
einer Geräteprüfung.
Electrosuisse führt elektrische Sicherheitsprüfungen durch und hilft Ihnen, die für einen Zutritt zum
Weltmarkt erforderlichen Zertifikate zu erlangen.
• Kommen verbindlich vorgeschriebene oder freiwillige Qualitätsstandards zur Anwendung?
• Welche Unterlagen sind für eine Sicherheitsbescheinigung erforderlich?
• Benötige ich für die Zertifizierung meiner Waren einen Importeur?
• Wie kann ich Haushaltsgeräte oder Verbraucherprodukte zertifizieren lassen?
• Welche elektrischen Sicherheitsvorschriften und technischen Normen müssen berücksichtigt werden?
• Warum weiten Sie Ihren Absatzmarkt nicht auch auf Länder ausserhalb der Europäischen Union aus?
• Ist eine Energieeffizienz-Kennzeichnung oder sogar ein Hygienezertifikat notwendig?
Heutzutage müssen Elektroprodukte alle technischen Anforderungen erfüllen, um weltweit erfolgreich
exportiert werden zu können. Die Anforderungen für die Zulassung eines Produktes sind in jedem Land
verschieden. Wir kennen die Zertifizierungsverfahren mit den benötigten Unterlagen und bearbeiten die
Aufträge mit den Zertifizierungsbehörden. Wir führen die gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen Prüfungen für
elektrotechnische und elektronische Waren und Produkte durch. Lassen Sie uns mit den
Geräteunterlagen feststellen, welche Landesvorschriften einzuhalten sind, damit Ihr Produkt zertifiziert
werden kann. Für vorgeschriebene Konformitätszeichen ist eine Typenprüfung erforderlich. Für einige
Länder ist ein Certificate of Conformity (CoC), ein Declaration of Conformity (DoC), eine Lieferabnahme
(PSI) oder nur eine Registrierung erforderlich.
Nutzen Sie unser PDF-Länder-Informationsblatt, um sich einen genaueren Überblick über die länder- und
regionsspezifischen Erfordernisse zu verschaffen und um sich über internationale Vorschriften zu
informieren. Wir empfehlen Ihnen, die Konformitätsanforderungen bereits in der
Produktentwicklungsphase zu berücksichtigen um z.B. Zollprobleme zu vermeiden.
Lokale Zertifizierungsinstitute gewähren die Zulassung schneller, wenn Electrosuisse als nationale
Zertifizierungsstelle die Anmeldung ordnungsgemäss mit den erforderlichen Informationen und
Unterlagen einreicht, wobei die Sicherheits- sowie die EMV-Prüfung unter dem Gesichtspunkt weltweiter
Exporttauglichkeit durchgeführt werden.
Steigern Sie Ihren Absatz und verkaufen Sie Ihre Waren in neuen Märkten wie China, Korea, Malaysia,
Russland, Südamerika, den Golfstaaten usw. Stellen Sie uns die Zolltarifnnummern (HS-Codes) und
genauere Informationen zum Produkt zur Verfügung, damit wir prüfen können, ob es zwingende
Vorschriften (Normen) zu erfüllen gibt.
Electrosuisse - internationale Zulassungen für den weltweiten Verkauf von Elektroprodukten
• Sicherheitsprüfung gemäss den internationalen IEC-Normen und den europäischen EN-Normen
• EMV-Prüfung (Elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit)
• Fertigungsstätten überwachen
• ENEC-Zeichen (in der Europäischen Gemeinschaft anerkanntes Sicherheitszeichen)
• IEC-CB-Zertifikate
Einhaltung elektrischer Sicherheitsvorschriften - Wir führen die Prüfungen durch und stellen erforderliche
Zertifikate aus.
IECEE ist ein System zur Konformitätsprüfung und -zertifizierung elektrischer Geräte.
Das IECEE-CB-Verfahren existiert schon seit mehr als 27 Jahren (Electrosuisse ist Gründungsmitglied)
und ist das einzige Verfahren für die internationale Anerkennung der Sicherheit von Elektrogeräten zur
Vereinfachung der Zertifikatsverleihung auf nationaler Ebene. Die Zertifikate werden von akkreditierten
Zertifizierungsstellen wie Electrosuisse ausgestellt. Führt ein Land die Prüfung durch, soll es keine
weitere Prüfung in einem anderen Mitgliedsstaat mehr geben.

• 52 IECEE-Mitgliedsländer, 74 in der IEC-Kommission vertretene Länder
• Schafft mehrfache, nationale Zertifizierungen ab
• Berücksichtigt nationale Unterschiede
• Reduzierte Prüf- und Zertifizierungskosten
• Beschleunigte Prüfung und Zertifizierung
Wie funktioniert das Zertifizierungsverfahren?
• Der Hersteller wünscht eine weltweite Zertifizierung
• Der Hersteller sendet das Elektroprodukt zur Prüfung an Electrosuisse
• Das Labor von Electrosuisse prüft das Produkt auf Konformität mit den IEC-Normen
• Electrosuisse (nationale Zertifizierungsstelle) stellt den CB-Prüfbericht und das CB-Prüfzertifikat aus.
• Der Hersteller möchte nun das Produkt in einem anderen Land verkaufen.
• Electrosuisse sendet das Zertifikat an ein Prüflabor im Zielland.
• Die Zertifizierungsbehörde dieses Landes stellt ihr das Zertifikat aus, ohne das Gerät erneut prüfen zu
müssen.
• Die Behörde erkennt die von Electrosuisse bereits durchgeführte Prüfung und Beurteilung an.
• Der Hersteller kann nun das nationale Konformitätszeichen dieses Landes auf dem Produkt anbringen
und das Produkt in dieses Land exportieren.
Ihr Vorteil bei einer Zertifizierung durch Electrosuisse
Die Anforderungen des Weltmarktes sind sehr komplex, da sie normalerweise auf produktspezifischen
Regelungen der einzelnen Länder basieren.
• Sie haben nur eine einzige Anlaufstelle, da wir uns um die Anträge für Ihre Exportmärkte kümmern.
• Lassen Sie sich frühzeitig einen Kostenvoranschlag geben, damit Sie Ihre Budgetplanungen danach
ausrichten können.
• Sie erhalten einen effizienteren Zugang zu mehreren Ländern, wenn wir nationale Abweichungen
bereits im Rahmen der Basisprüfung berücksichtigen.
• Soweit dies möglich ist, verwenden wir bereits vorhandene Produktprüfdaten.
• Ersparen Sie Ihren Mitarbeitern den Stress, den eine Öffnung für neue Märkte mit sich bringt und
profitieren Sie von unseren Kenntnissen aus früheren Zertifizierungsprojekten.
• Profitieren Sie eventuell von einer gebündelten Werksinspektion. Sie vermeiden dadurch zeitraubende
Inspektionen.
Nutzen Sie unser Angebot, Ihnen einen erleichterten Zugang zum Weltmarkt zu verschaffen!
Beginnen Sie jetzt mit der Planung für eine weltmarktbezogene Zertifizierung
Folgende Checkliste kann Sie unterstützen.
1. Bestimmen Sie die Zielmärkte für den Ausbau Ihrer Exporttätigkeiten
Legen Sie sich eine nach Prioritäten gegliederte Liste über künftige Absatzmärkte an, die festlegt, in
welches Land Sie zuerst exportieren möchten.
Definieren Sie, welche Produkte sich pro Land am besten verkaufen lassen.
2. Bestimmungen der zwingenden Anforderungen
Obligatorische Sicherheitszeichen, EMV, Energiesparkennzeichnung, weitere
Kennzeichnungsanforderungen, Warenzeichenanmeldung, Importeur …
Für die Zuteilung sind eine klare Produktbeschreibung, die Zolltarifnummer (Harmonisierte SystemCodes) sowie der entsprechende IEC-Norm hilfreich. Bezüglich der Zertifizierungsanforderungen können
wir Sie unterstützen.

3. Gap-Analyse
Was müssen Sie ausserdem noch tun, um die Exportverkäufe in einem neuen Land zu steigern?
Kontrollieren Sie, welche Prüfungen oder sogar Zertifizierungen bereits durchgeführt wurden.
Verfügbarkeit von Prüfberichte, (CB-)Prüfzertifikate, Zertifikate der kritischen Bauteile,
Werküberwachungsberichte, Gebrauchsanweisungen in anderen Sprachen?
Wurden die nationalen Abweichungen schon geprüft?
4. Kostenanalyse
Die Kosten können von Land zu Land stark variieren. Sie sind daher für jedes Land und Produkt
gesondert festzulegen.
Bestimmen Sie den Preis für die Prüfung und Zertifizierung, eventuelle Konstruktionsanpassungen zur
Erreichung der Konformität, sonstige (versteckte) Kosten wie z. B. Kosten für Gebrauchsanweisungen in
zusätzlichen Sprachversionen, Logistik, Vertriebsnetz (Reisekosten), Handelsmarkenregistrierung, Prüfen
der Kommunikationsform (Zeitunterschied).
Folgekosten wie z. B. Lizenzen
5. Sonstige Überlegungen
• Sprache und kulturelle Barrieren
• Imitationsgefahr
• Gibt es Konstruktionsänderungen?
Einzelne risikobehaftete Bauteilerhältlichkeit kann sich auswirken. Eine neue Produktversion kann
zusätzliche Prüfungen und Zertifizierungen erforderlich machen.
• Realistische Marketing-Zeitplanung
• Herstellungskapazität
• Versionshandling (Logistik)
6. Entscheidung
