List of steps that are taken under product Testing Laboratory

All organizations need to guarantee their products work accurately and fulfill their guidelines for quality. It refers to new products that are in work in progress stage. The existing products should go through quality testing. Product Testing is a vital part of the product development cycle. 

The steps followed at URS Product Testing Laboratory are tailored to provide comprehensive, reliable, and accurate testing services across various industries. The steps typically taken under the URS Product and Testing Laboratory.

1. Requirement Understanding and Consultation

  • Client Consultation: Understand the client's needs, objectives, and product-specific requirements.
  • Standard Identification: Identify relevant standards and regulations (e.g., ISO, IEC, UL, BIS) applicable to the product.
  • Scope Definition: Define the scope of testing—performance, safety, compliance, environmental, or durability.

2. Test Planning

  • Develop a detailed test plan based on the identified standards.
  • Schedule tests based on resource availability and client timelines.
  • Prepare necessary documents, including work orders, checklists, and test procedures.

3. Sample Management

  • Sample Receipt: Receive and log product samples, ensuring all are intact and match the provided specifications.
  • Inspection: Perform a visual and dimensional inspection to ensure the samples are test-ready.
  • Pre-Test Preparation: Assemble, configure, or simulate operating conditions if required.

4. Laboratory Setup

  • Test Environment Preparation: Set up testing spaces like:
    • EMI/EMC Chambers: For radiated emissions and immunity tests.
    • Climatic Chambers: For temperature, humidity, and environmental stress testing.
    • Durability Rigs: For mechanical endurance testing.
    • Battery and Power Labs: For evaluating energy storage solutions.
  • Calibration: Ensure all testing equipment is calibrated and meets traceability requirements.

5. Conducting Tests

  • Perform tests according to the test plan and standard operating procedures. Tests include:
    • Electrical Safety: Evaluate the risk of electric shock, fire, or mechanical hazards.
    • EMC Testing: Measure electromagnetic interference and susceptibility.
    • Performance Testing: Verify functionality under normal and extreme conditions.
    • Environmental Testing: Assess resilience to temperature, humidity, vibration, and shock.
    • Durability Testing: Test mechanical and structural integrity.
    • Audio/Visual Testing: Analyze sound and video quality using advanced equipment.
    • Battery and Energy Testing: Capacity test, charge cycles, and thermal behavior.

6. Data Collection and Analysis

  • Use automated systems and advanced tools for accurate data recording.
  • Perform real-time monitoring of test parameters for critical components.
  • Analyze results using statistical methods to determine compliance or deviation from standards.

7. Reporting and Feedback

  • Generate a detailed test report:
    • Test methods and conditions.
    • Results and observed behavior.
    • Compliance status with standards.
  • Highlight any failures or areas of concern.
  • Provide actionable feedback to the client for product improvement.

8. Certification

  • If the product meets all requirements, issue a certificate of compliance.
  • Provide the necessary documentation for regulatory or market access submissions.

Enhancing Safety Standards through Electrical Household Products Testing

 The electrical household product's safety, quality, and overall value are as important as other essential things. It helps to distinguish between the products and the retailers.

All home appliance manufacturers face tough challenges. They have to comply with variations, complex requirements, and market differences. Even electrical household product manufacturers face aggressive and global competition.

Types of electrical household products 

Various types of electrical household products require a testing lab. Those are Electric iron, water immersion and MFS heating element, geyser, juicer mixer and grinder, washing machine safety test, heat radiator, electric toaster safety test, baking oven or microwave, automatic line voltage corrector, switches, three pin plug and sockets, ceiling roses, electric ballast, fluorescent lamp starter, ceiling fan, propeller type AC ventilating fan, hot air fan, single phase small electric motor, pump set for desert cooler, domestic and power cable, rubber insulated, mining cable, conductors and many more.   

So, it is necessary to test every electrical household product. 

Types of test services

You get various types of test services for electrical household product testing. These tests will be conducted in labs. Lab tests are;

  • Electromagnetic compatibility (E.M.C.)
  • Radio waves
  • Environmental and energy efficiency
  • Safety from the devices
