Switchgear and Controlgear CE
Summary：Switchgear and Controlgear CE test and certification requirements
A short circuit caused by damage to parts can cause product failure，harm human life，this will impact the company's reputation. CE test and certification for switch and electrical line fittings ensures product safety and meets international regulatory/standard requirements.
Common Switchgear and Controlgear products：
l Low voltage cabinet/junction box
l Bus mainline system
l Distribution box/user box
l Disconnecting switch
l Low-tension fuse
l Breaker——Miniature circuit breaker/leakage protector (without overload trip)/ leakage circuit breaker (with overload trip)
l Steel surface cable trough
l Fire alarm panel
l Relay
