Chile issued Draft Protocol PE No. 8/11:2023, “Protocolo de Análisis y/o Ensayos de Seguridad de Producto Eléctrico,” on June 19, 2023. This protocol defines the certification procedure for Audio and Video electronic products primarily designed to display television transmissions with a built-in tuner, having a diagonal length of 165.1 cm (65”) or less. Products sharing common material properties, manufacturing methods, similar components, and production plant locations will be eligible for Family certification.
The number of products or models required for type certification testing is as follows:
- Certification of up to 5 models = 1 most representative model
- Up to 10 models = 2 most representative models
- Up to 20 models = 3 most representative models
- Up to 30 models = 4 most representative models
- And so on.
IT products that connect to televisions are excluded from this protocol and are assessed according to the IEC 60950 standard.
