Product safety

SP Electronics' Product Safety Section is concerned mainly with various kinds of safety-related testing and evaluation of apparatus, embedded systems and components, for such applications as telecommunications equipment, the automotive industry, the engineering industry and process industries.

We perform testing and evaluation in the working areas of electrical safety, enclosure classification (IP classification) and explosion protection.

Specialist knowledge

We specialise in certain product areas, such as taximeters, explosive materials and teleterminal equipment.  We also specialise in matters relating to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and physical protection, which can mean protection against ESD damage to electronic products or against mechanical shock.  Our work in most of our technology and product areas is accredited, and we are also a Notified Body for explosion protection and detonator systems, as well as for taximeters (MID).
