General information

Testing is carried out rapidly, reliably and at a low cost in compliance with national and international standards, using state-of-the-art test equipment and measuring techniques. Services include material tests; environmental simulation such as climatic, vibration, and EMC tests; and even short-circuit and internal arc tests with currents up to 300,000 amperes. In addition, state-of-the-art analysis tools are available for more detailed investigations, such as high-speed video, laser vibrometer, and X-ray equipment.

	Competence and independence are certified by the accrediation according to DIN EN 45001 by the German Accreditation Body for Technology (DATech) for industrial low-voltage switchgear and controlgear and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).
	Moeller is a member of ALPHA ( Association for the Testing and Cerfification of Low Voltage Equipment in Germany). The Test Laboratory Bonn of Moeller GmbH has been included in the ALPHA- and LOVAG registers of accredited test laboratories, ID no. D 01. (LOVAG = Low Voltage Agreement Group - a european group of agreement bodies for industrial low-voltage equipment.) This certifies that the Test Laboratory meets all requirements for testing in accordance with the LOVAG agreement. Customers can thus obtain a certificate from an independent third party for these tests.
	Resulting from the cooperation with the TÜV Product Safety GmbH (TRPS), it is possible that customers of the Test Laboratory Bonn can receive certificates demanded by certain markets. In addition to the TÜV-certificate or a recognised TÜV-test mark, the TRPS additionally offers the necessary monitoring of production. Access to an additional GS-test mark is also provided.
	As the first manufacturer's laboratory worldwide, the Test Laboratory Bonn of Moeller GmbH is authorized by the North American certification bodies to perform and document tests for all customers according to North American standards for low-voltage switchgear and controlgear. Within the scope of its agreement, the Test Laboratory Bonn offers customers extensive support in enabling fast and low-efficient approvals of products by the North American certification bodies.
	In cooperation with the Ship Classification Societies a large number of tests could be carried out and documented in accordance with the relevant standards.
