Electrical equipment designed for everyday use in the EU must adhere to the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2014/35/EU. The directive states that electrical equipment can only be placed on the market if it provides a high level of protection to the health and safety of persons, domestic animals, and property. It is also required to CE Mark products that fall within the scope of this Directive, and the correct documentation must support this.

- A Risk Assessment of the hazards associated with the product and environment
- Product Safety Test/Assessments to harmonized standard(s) to benefit from a presumption of conformity to the essential requirements (safety objectives) of the LVD
- 汇编技术文件
