All Countries - IECEE CB Scheme - Acceptance of Test Reports from Manufacturer's Test Facilities

Under some IECEE CB Scheme programs, manufacturers are allowed to have tests done at their facilities and CB test reports are marked with the following designations:

SMT (Supervised Manufacturer's Testing)
TMP (Testing at Manufacturer’s Premises)
WMT (Witnessed Manufacturer’s Testing)
RMT (Recognised Manufacturer’s Testing)

Manufacturers involved in these programs should note that some countries that do accept CB Scheme reports to grant their national Marks will not accept test reports covered under some of these programs done at manufacturer's test dacilities (example: China will not accept a CB Scheme report marked SMT).

See below link from the IECEE that addresses countries and their acceptance of tests at manufacturer's test facilities under the various IECEE programs for SMT, TMP, WMT or RMT>
