Due to differences in testing standards across the globe it is becoming increasingly important for manufacturers to ensure that their products are safe for consumer and industrial use. What was once a general and loosely regulated industry is now being flooded with stringent national and international safety standards. The recent harmonization of safety standards in the European Union has led to an increased concern by manufacturers to make sure that their products comply with EU specifications. Meanwhile, regulatory bodies like UL have led to stricter rules on electrical products sold domestically. Although manufacturers of electrical products are becoming more familiar with electrical safety testing and compliance, many are still unfamiliar with this crucial part of the production process.
