PRE-ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF REGULATIONS
This type of constructive analysis is carried out by our specialized technicians with the aim of evaluating all regulatory requirements and identifying an executive definition that takes them into account at an early design stage. In this way, the regulatory impact on the final product is known even before the realization of the prototype.
LABORATORY TESTS TO VERIFY CONFORMITY
Our laboratory is equipped to carry out tests to verify the electrical safety conformity of luminaires and LED modules. This service is particularly suitable for those who want to carry out product development and pre-compliance activities, avoiding potential delays in the market launch of the product.
We test your equipment according to current safety regulations. Each test is accompanied by a test report that reports:
- Standards applied;
- Testing methodology;
- Results and photographic documentation;
In case of non-compliance, we evaluate the causes, possible solutions to both solve them as well as meet the regulatory requirements.
Below you will find a list of the main luminaire tests:
MANDATORY CERTIFICATION AND CE MARKING
The laboratory is able to evaluate your products according to the latest editions of applicable standards in the field of mandatory certification, such as CE marking and issues test reports in accordance with the requirements of the LVD directive, valid for the preparation of a correct EU declaration of conformity.
We evaluate lighting products for luminaire manufacturers and importers by offering:
- Analysis of Directives and applicable rules;
- Performance of the tests of conformity with the regulatory requirements;
- Technical, experimental and design checks
- Verification of the Technical Specifications
VOLUNTARY CERTIFICATION
Our laboratory is able to carry out safety tests and verifications required for compliance with national, European and international regulations to which lighting manufacturers decide to comply voluntarily. The activities of our laboratory are recognized by the main certification bodies and through special procedures you can obtain voluntary certification including CB, ENEC.
UPDATES ON DIRECTIVES, REGULATIONS, STANDARDS
As Risorse Alternative we are associates of ASSIL (Italian Association of Lighting Manufacturers) and we are active members and participants of the technical committee CT34, SC34A and SC34D that allows to know in advance the evolution of the regulations and therefore allows to report the new regulatory requirements to its customers.
We participate in training courses, workshops and conferences to deepen all the regulatory aspects of lighting products and their components.
We provide help for interpretations of directives, regulations and standards in collaboration with ASSIL (Italian Association of Lighting Manufacturers) and the main certification bodies on the following topics:
- Analysis of Directives and applicable rules;
- Safety standards "luminaires" CEI EN IEC 60598;
- Safety standards "LED modules for general lighting" CEI EN IEC 62031;
- American UL standards for luminaires;
- Existing rules and regulations in the various non-European foreign states;
- Directives LVD 2014/35/EU, RoHS 2011/65/EU, EcoDesign 2009/125/EC and EU regulation 2019-2020, EU regulation 2019-2015 and EPREL database.
PREPARATION AND VERIFICATION OF TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Companies may voluntarily use third party certifications to demonstrate compliance of the product and its technical dossiers with the requirements of the Directive. Our technicians are able to prepare the technical documentation required by the directives, which certifies the conformity of the device, or in the case of an existing technical file, can check its correctness and validity.

PRODUCTION OF INSTRUCTION SHEETS
With our technicians and designers, we provide service for the development of instruction sheets, markings and energy labelling.
We evaluate the energy classification of each luminaire and develop energy labelling in accordance with the requirements of the directive and the regulations Ecodesign and energy labelling.
We produce instruction sheets, graphically clear and well developed, also perfect to fully meet regulatory requirements. We set and print labels with thermal transfer printers, in accordance with the requirements of the regulations.
