ILAC MRA Recognition

Our NVLAP accreditation includes ILAC Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) status. The ILAC-MRA logo appears on all Compatible Electronics accredited test reports. Accreditation bodies in over 100 countries are ILAC MRA signatories, meaning our reports are accepted without re-testing in virtually all major export markets. This eliminates the need to send products to overseas labs or repeat testing in-country.

Real-World Testing Examples

Smart Home Hub — US + EU + Canada + Australia + Taiwan

A consumer electronics manufacturer needed FCC, CE marking, ISED, RCM, and BSMI compliance for a WiFi/Bluetooth/Zigbee smart home gateway. Compatible Electronics consolidated all testing into a single session: ANSI C63.4 + C63.10 (FCC), EN 55032 + EN 55035 + ETSI EN 300 328 (CE), ICES-003 Issue 7 (Canada), AS/NZS CISPR 32 + AS/NZS 4268 (Australia RCM), and CNS 15936 (BSMI Taiwan). Five market test reports from one lab visit — no duplicate measurements, no overseas testing required.

Medical Infusion Pump — IEC 60601-1-2 Global EMC

A medical device manufacturer required IEC 60601-1-2 Ed. 4 EMC testing for simultaneous US FDA, EU MDR, and Australian TGA submissions. Compatible Electronics performed the full EMC test plan — emissions, ESD, radiated RF immunity, EFT/Burst, surge, conducted RF immunity, magnetic field, and voltage dips — in a single session. The ILAC MRA accredited IEC 60601-1-2 Ed. 4 test report was accepted for all three market submissions without additional overseas testing.

LED Driver — CE + RCM + ICES-005 + BSMI Combined

A lighting manufacturer needed compliance for an LED driver sold in Europe, Australia, Canada, and Taiwan. Compatible Electronics performed EN 55015 / CISPR 15 for CE marking and RCM, ICES-005 Issue 5 for Canada, and CNS 15936 for BSMI — all from the same emissions measurements. EN 61000-3-2 harmonic current and EN 61000-3-3 flicker completed the CE marking package. Four market test reports from one session.
