It effects safe installation and operation of new and renovated electrical equipment minimizes risk of fire and electrical damage, delay, repair – and insurance claims.


WHO
Field Evaluation should be considered for unapproved electrical product, with need to manage risk. It is also an option for custom products (with a small run - 300 units per year per model), prototypes, innovations, and tests where set-up costs for certification are not in the budget. Customers in remote areas will be relieved to find FE is accessible for them.
