Certificates of Approval are recognised under the EESS as equivalent to a Certificate of Conformity until advised otherwise.Certificate of Conformity (CoC): Issued for Level 3 products as defined in AS/NZS 4417 and in accordance with the EESSCertificate of Suitability (CoS): Issued for Level 1 or Level 2 products as defined in AS/NZS 4417 and in accordance with the EESS Equipment Safety Rules, and also for products that are neither NSW Declared Articles nor in-scope EESS equipment.The EESS was introduced in Queensland, Australia, on 1 March 2013. It is expected that other Australian States (but maybe not all) and possibly New Zealand might adopt the EESS over time.EESS in-scope electrical equipment must have a Responsible Supplier registered on the EESS database. Responsible Suppliers must be based in Australia (and have an ABN) or New Zealand (and have an IRD number). The EESS categorises in-scope equipment into Level 3 (High risk), Level 2 (Medium risk) and Level 1 (Low risk). Level 2 and Level 3 products have to be individually registered on the EESS database. Level 3 products require a Certificate of Conformity. Level 2 products require compliance documentation and Level 2 and Level 1 products may have a Certificate of Suitability. Level 3 product registration requires the Responsible Supplier to link their product to a Certificate of Conformity already uploaded to the database by the issuing certification body. If a password is applied when Certificate data is uploaded, the Responsible Supplier or their agent must enter that password when linking their product to the Certificate of Conformity. That allows the Certificate holder to control who may use their certificate data. If no password is applied to a Certificate data, any Responsible Supplier can link to it.In-scope electrical equipment is defined as:(1) low voltage electrical equipment designed or marketed as suitable for household, personal or similar use.(2) It is immaterial whether the low voltage electrical equipment is also designed or marketed to be used for commercial or industrial purposes.The categorisation of products into Level 2 or Level 3 is set out in AS/NZS 4417.2:2012 or later versions as subsequently amended. Level 1 products are any in-scope equipment not defined as level 2 or level 3.For further information, contact UL Customer Service at customerservice.ANZ@TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CERTIFICATIONAOrdering & Payment Terms.

Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions of Certification and the General Terms and Conditions of Service shall govern these services.

The Certifier reserves the right to request additional information in support of any application made.2. Suitable Test Report(s). Applicant shall provide evidence of compliance with the applicable product standard by submitting an original or an authentic copy of an accredited, type test report, in English. Reports shall have the required accreditation identification as stipulated by the ILAC/APLAC laboratory accreditation body, or as required under the IECEE CB Scheme. The type test report shall cover a representative sample of the product. The submitted test report(s) must state compliance with the applicable product standard(s). Acceptable test reports include: Report from an IANZ, NATA, or MRA partner laboratory where the testing is covered by the scope of laboratory accreditation. Report issued by a recognised IECEE CB Scheme laboratory where the testing is carried out by the CBTL and is covered by the scope of laboratory recognition. Applicant shall include copies of the IECEE CB Scheme Certificate. CTF4 (RMT) test reports are not accepted. 3. Product sample. Where photographs and supporting documentation do not permit a clear identification of the product and any important design features, the Certifier may request that the applicant provide such evidence or a physical sample. Submitted samples shall be retained for a period of not less than 30 days. After 30 days, the Certifier may dispose of the samples in its sole discretion, unless the Applicant has given specific instructions to the contrary with costs being billed to the Applicant’s account. C.Certification Process and Deliverables1. Basis of certification decision. Any certificate issued by the Certifier is based upon conformity to the applicable product standard as demonstrated by the submitted evidence. The applicant takes sole responsibility for all products supplied to the Australian and New Zealand marketplace being the same as the certified sample(s).2. Consideration of new technology. For products to be issued a Certificate of Approval, Certificate of Conformity or for EESS Level 1 or Level 2 products to be issued a Certificate of Suitability, alternative standards due to new technology require the approval of the NSW Office of Fair Trading or shall be determined in accordance with the EESS Equipment Safety Rules as appropriate. For all other products, consideration may be given to issuing a Certificate of Suitability based on an equivalent applicable standard, where the non-conformance, if any, per the equivalent standard does not affect the safety of the product. Such a decision to certify will only be made upon review of any such request submitted in writing by the CO to the appropriate UL Subject Matter Expert. 3. Certification Body obligations. All applications submitted to the Certifier will be treated with impartiality in a confidential and non-discriminatory manner.

The Certificate holder agrees that it will correct any misleading or inaccurate statements or claims it has made in relation to any certification granted under these Terms and Conditions, at the Certifier’s direction. The certificate holder shall notify the Certifier of any changes to the certificate holder's name or contact details, or to the certified product, by formal application for modification.
