Accreditation
Compliance Test Services performs EMC, RF, and safety compliance testing and product certification for electrical equipment, electronic devices, and wireless communication products.
CTS does not currently hold an active ISO 17025 accreditation. Reinstatement is in progress following an operator transition. Contact us for the current status and timeline before initiating any testing that requires accredited laboratory results.
ISO 17025
ISO/IEC 17025 is the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories. Accreditation under ISO 17025 demonstrates that a laboratory is technically competent and able to produce precise and accurate test data. The standard covers management requirements, technical requirements, and the demonstration of measurement traceability.
NVLAP
The National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) is administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and provides third-party accreditation to testing and calibration laboratories under ISO/IEC 17025. NVLAP accreditation is recognized by regulatory bodies and accepted for compliance submissions to FCC, ISED, and other agencies. CTS's NVLAP history is summarized on the NVLAP page.
