Hi all,
So, I find myself having designed an electrical device that I want to market
on a limited basis. Let's say I just want to start with the Canadian market
but if I can get approval in the US it would be all the better.
I got a quote for UL[c-us] approval and, as you would expect, nearly fell
off my chair. ($9000).
The product has a relatively low value/price (~$200) and a very low initial
production run (25 units).
On further research, I've found CSA SPE-1000 bridges the gap between
breaking the law (no CSA approval) and breaking the bank (full CSA or UL
approval).
Has anyone on the list undertaken this? Or if you have any other
constructive advice considering the above parameters, I'm all ears :)
I understand you can do something similar for the US market, but that it's
somewhat more convoluted?
TIA,
-marc
