IEC standard, namely International Electric Commission, is a worldwide standardization organization composed of electric committees of various countries, and its purpose is to promote the standardization in the field of electrical and electronic in the world.
CE certification is limited to the basic safety requirements of products that do not endanger the safety of human beings, animals and goods, rather than the general quality requirements. The coordination instruction only specifies the main requirements, and the general instruction requirements are standard tasks. Therefore, the accurate meaning is that the CE mark is a safety qualified mark rather than a quality qualified mark. The "main requirements" constitute the core of the European directive.
2. Different requirements
In the EU market, the "CE" mark is a compulsory certification mark. Whether products produced by enterprises within the EU or products produced by other countries want to circulate freely in the EU market, they need to be labeled with "CE" to show that the products meet the basic requirements of the EU's "New Method of Technical Coordination and Standardization" directive. This is a mandatory requirement for products under EU law.
IEC is just an organization name, not certification. What we usually call IEC certification is generally CB certification.
3. Different meanings
It means that the products with CE mark have passed the corresponding conformity assessment procedures and/or the manufacturer's conformity declaration, which conforms to the relevant EU directives, and are used as the sales pass for products to enter the European market.
IEC promotes the standardization of electrification and electronic engineering and international cooperation in related fields through its members, such as conformity assessment according to standards and cooperation in electrical, electronic and related technologies.
