Learn From These Mistakes Before You Complete TEC Certificate- Corpseed
by Khushi Tayal Digital MarketerTEC is the Telecommunication Engineering Center below the
Department of Telecommunications. TEC certification has been a deliberate
process since 1991, and as per TEC announcement, No. 10-1/2017-IT/TEC/ER is
slated to become compulsory in 2019 for products such as servers, LAN switches,
routers, remote access servers, network security systems, etc. being sold into
India market. Products below TEC are needed to meet electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC/EMI), and safety testing is beneath consideration.
The TEC certification method needs testing of samples to be
delivered in India and a report generated from an authorized TEC lab. The
report produced by the accredited lab must be presented to TEC for review and
approval. This responsibility must be managed by the company’s Authorized
Indian Representative (AIR). Upon receiving, TEC will issue a certificate and
an ID number connected with the factory manufacturing the product. The ID
number assigned by TEC must be marked on the product.
An important distinction to be formed between the TEC
approval process and other international approval processes, including BIS and
WPC, is that TEC only supports up to 10 models per certificate. Candidates
should be careful of this control when preparing for TEC certification.
The TEC certificate and ID numbers are assigned to the
company that produces the product instead of the candidate or brand owner
appealing for approval. An Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) must be
authorized in India for TEC registration. If the candidate or industry has a
representative office in India, this office needs to take the responsibility of
AIR. If there is no present representation in India, the different legal
entities within India can be nominated as the AIR.
Occupying TEC certification can be difficult, and delays can
transpire without proper knowledge of certification demands. Some following
areas that can add cost or time to projects:
- Deciding
whether products need mandatory TEC certification
- Test
samples are limited in shipping or get stuck in routines
- Family
model programs are defined by the test lab to expect various certification
reports
- Various
models want additional certificates, which adds unnecessary cost.
- Produce
defect or fail during testing
- Test
units are not sent with the individual test setup
- Certificate
or rules expire
