Certification introduction
The cTUVus verification mark provides customers with a clear and direct method in product safety, so that their products can successfully enter the US and Canadian markets. North America, Germany, and Rhine have been registered and can perform US ANSI / UL standards and Canadian national standard verification and product testing services.
Technical Information
Frequency: 60Hz Voltage: Single-phase 120V (used in the United States and Canada, measuring between fire and ground wires, providing 15 or 20A protection lines); 240V (measured between water and fire wires, generally available)
Voltage: three-phase 208 / 240V
Plug structure: The United States and Canada use NEMA 5-15P and 6-15P plug standards. These straight blade plugs from the United States are clearly described in the NEMA (National Electronic Manufacturers Association) WD6 edition and incorporated into UL498. Canadian plug and socket standards are mentioned in CSA publication C22.2, No. 42.

Factory inspection
TUVus' factory inspection is four times a year, and cTUV is twice a year. If both are applied, the factory inspection is four times per year. This factory inspection can be combined with other certificates, such as TUV / GS, Japan S-Mark or Argentina S-Mark.

KC certification is a mandatory certification system implemented in South Korea for electronic and electrical products, aimed at ensuring that products comply with South Korea\'s safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards. The Korean market has strict quality control over imported goods, and smart rings, as electronic products, must pass KC certification in order to be legally sold in the Korean market.
CE-RED certification is a mandatory compliance requirement of the European Union for wireless devices. For smartwatches with wireless functions such as Bluetooth and Wi Fi, its importance is mainly reflected in the following three aspects.
The Brazilian market has enormous potential, but in order to successfully enter, ANATEL certification is an essential first step. As an authoritative standard certified by the Brazilian Communications Authority, ANATEL certification is not only a guarantee of product quality, but also a legal entry threshold into the Brazilian market.
