The CB certificate is the summary certificate for several test reports and certificates regarding the safety of EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) and various safety tests. The basis available for a CE-marked product is usually not sufficient for access to markets outside the EU/EFTA. As a rule, additional tests and certification are required. National Certification Bodies (NCBs) and test laboratories in 39 countries, 20 of which are located outside the EU, participate in the CB system.
