Radio Communication Equipment

Radio Communication Equipment and Electrical Safety Tests

The use of radio equipment in the modern world brings with it complex safety regulations. The Radio Equipment Directive (RED) contains strict requirements aimed at protecting the health and safety of the user, as well as the performance of the device. As GTL (Global Technology Laboratory), we ensure that your wireless and radio communication devices are verified to the highest safety standards, regardless of their voltage level.

Uncompromising Safety Assessment
One of the most critical features of the Radio Equipment Directive is its comprehensiveness regarding electrical safety. While equipment operating below certain voltage levels may be exempt from certain requirements under the traditional Low Voltage Directive (LVD), the Radio Equipment Directive completely eliminates these exemptions.

This means that all radio equipment must undergo a comprehensive electrical safety assessment, regardless of the amount of energy used or the voltage level. At GTL, we guide our manufacturers through this transition process, ensuring that their devices remain safe under all conditions.

Technical Standards We Are Accredited For
We provide services in accordance with internationally recognized harmonized standards to certify the safety of wireless devices in both civilian and professional applications. Our laboratory is accredited for all of the following critical standards:

  • EN 62368-1: Modern audio/video safety standard for information and communication technology equipment.
  • EN 60950-1: Electrical safety requirements for information technology equipment.
  • EN 60215: Specific safety standards for radio transmitting equipment.

Why GTL Radio and Wireless Testing?
GTL analyzes not only the communication performance of your radio devices but also the electrical risks that could threaten user health in its fully equipped laboratories. With our processes fully compliant with TSE and European Union standards, we provide all the necessary technical evaluations to ensure your radio communication equipment is globally marketable with “CE” marking and safely preferred by users.
