Safety regulations, or safety standards, provide clear statements and guidelines for manufactured devices and electrical components to ensure safe, high-quality products for end-users. Their main purpose is to prevent harm to humans from electric shock, energy hazards, fire, mechanical and heat hazards, radiation hazards, and chemical hazards.
Generally, each country can establish its own national electrical safety standards. However, most power supply manufacturers use IEC, VDE, UL, and CSA safety standards to address safety requirements. UL and VDE safety standards differ significantly; UL standards focus more on preventing fire hazards, while VDE standards focus more on operator safety. For power supplies, VDE is a stricter electrical safety standard.
Safety Policy: Zero defects in high-voltage and grounding tests.
Safety testers are used for high-voltage components, home appliances, and electrical equipment for withstand voltage measurement tests (using AC/DC withstand voltage testers). They are mainly used to detect whether a product is leaking electricity, whether it is properly grounded, and whether it poses a safety risk to personnel. Main test items include withstand voltage strength, leakage current, insulation resistance, and grounding resistance.
