About Electrical and EMC Testing Services

Electrical and EMC testing services evaluate parts and products for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), dielectric properties, conductivity, electrostatic discharge (ESD), insulation resistance, and other electrical characteristics. Companies offer services such as research and development, simulation, in-line and in-process testing, product comparison, and certification. Electrical and EMC testing services that inspect in-service or newly fabricated products perform environmental exposure testing, dynamics testing, non-destructive testing (NDT), visual inspection, chemical analysis or structural material testing. Some companies design, install and/or operate data acquisition systems or test instrumentation in on-site facilities or off-site labs. Others provide test fixtures, equipment, and facilities for specific applications. Test panel and sample preparation services simulate the effects of products such as paints, coatings, and lubricants upon test samples.


Products & Services Related to Electrical and EMC Testing Services
Certification Services
Certification services include companies that test, inspect, register and/or certify products, components, equipment, instruments, processes, management systems or facilities. This area also includes organizations that evaluate, audit, assist, train and/or register companies on facility or system wide assessments such as ISO registration, process quality audits, health and safety assessment, and management systems evaluation.    
Environmental Exposure (Climatics) Testing Services
Environmental exposure (climatics) testing services use humidity, pressure, temperature, vibration, exposure to ultraviolet light (UV) and other climatic variables to test samples, parts and components, and finished products.
Flow and Pressure (Fluid Dynamics) Testing Services
Flow and pressure (fluid dynamics) testing services evaluate the flow, pressure and fluid dynamics of components and products such as radiators, heater cores, lines and bottles.
Product and Component Testing Services
Product and component testing services is the evaluation of a finished product or component through performance in electrical, life, environmental exposure, dynamic, ergonomic or other specialized tests.  Also testing to standards such as UL 489, CE or MIL-STD 810.
Quality Registrars and Registration Services
Quality registrars and registration services certify that a company’s quality management system meets specific industrial standards. Management system registrars perform pre-assessments and gap assessments, define corrective action plans, and perform final assessments and registration.
Shock and Vibration (Dynamics) Testing Services
Shock and vibration (dynamics) testing services or dynamics testing of a finished product or component using shock, sine and random vibration or other dynamic test conditions.
