Faraday EMT Labs

Electrical Safety Testing

Faraday Electromagnetics Test Laboratory LLP (Faraday EMT Laboratory) provides comprehensive electrical safety testing services to ensure your products meet rigorous domestic and international safety standards.

As electronic devices become more complex, ensuring user safety from electrical shock, fire, and mechanical hazards is critical. Our accredited laboratory tests a wide range of consumer, industrial, and medical products to help you achieve compliance for global market access, including CE Marking, BIS Registration, and other regulatory approvals.

Why Electrical Safety Testing is Critical

Electrical safety testing is not just about compliance—it is about liability and brand protection. It evaluates potential risks such as:

  • Electric Shock: Preventing user contact with live parts.

  • Energy Hazards: Protecting against short circuits and high-current faults.

  • Fire: Ensuring materials and components do not propagate flame.

  • Heat: preventing skin burns and insulation degradation.

  • Mechanical Hazards: Assessing sharp edges, stability, and enclosure strength.

Our Safety Testing Capabilities

Faraday EMT Laboratory offers a “One-Stop Solution” for safety testing across multiple product categories. We are fully equipped to test against major IEC, EN, and IS standards.

IT & Audio/Video Equipment (Hazard-Based Safety)

We specialize in the modern hazard-based safety standard that has replaced the older IEC 60950-1 and IEC 60065.

  • IEC/EN 62368-1: Audio/video, information and communication technology equipment.

  • IS 13252 (Part 1): Information Technology Equipment – Safety (BIS CRS).

  • IEC/EN 60950-1: Information technology equipment (Legacy support).

  • IEC/EN 60065: Audio, video, and similar electronic apparatus (Legacy support).

Medical Electrical Equipment

We conduct specialized testing for medical devices where patient safety is paramount, including analysis of leakage currents and patient-applied parts.

  • IEC/EN 60601-1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance of medical electrical equipment.

  • Risk Assessment: Evaluation of single-fault conditions (SFC) and essential performance.

Household & Laboratory Equipment

  • IEC/EN 61010-1: Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use.

  • IEC/EN 60335-1: Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.

Common Safety Tests Performed

Our facility performs the full suite of routine and type tests required by safety standards:

  • Dielectric Strength (Hi-Pot) Test: Verifies insulation integrity under high voltage.

  • Ground Bond (Earth Continuity) Test: Ensures the protective earth path can safely carry fault currents.

  • Insulation Resistance Test: Measures the resistance of insulation materials.

  • Leakage Current Test: Measures current flowing through a person touching the device (Touch Current).

  • Temperature Rise Test: Monitors component heating during operation to prevent overheating.

  • Creepage & Clearance Measurement: Verifies physical spacing between conductive parts.

  • Ingress Protection (IP) Testing: Validates protection against dust and water (e.g., IP67, IP54).
