NOM-003-SCFI-2014 Electrical Safety Testing
Each electrical item requires lab testing and NOM certification for export to Mexico. Two complete samples needs to be sent to Mexico for testing. All testing items need to comply with NOM024 which is labeling compliance for all electrical/electronic items, please see labeling compliance section or click here. Your item may need to have the energy consumption (LASE) tested. If so, our rate does include the mandatory registration with Profeco and CONUEE which is service TechLink will address and be included in our quote. Other items may contain remote controls or Bluetooth functions, this would require a registration or be compliant with NOM-208-SCFI-2016 which would be an additional required test. NOM003 takes approximately four weeks. Items that require part two testing will take longer, but will be confirmed based on the type of item. NOM-003-SCFI-2014 certificates are valid for one year.
NOM-003-SCFI-2014 was recently updated in 2014 and had several important updates.
