The Low Voltage Directive (LVD) is a regulation of the European Union, numbered 2014/35/EU. This directive stipulates the safety requirements that all electrical equipment sold in the EU market must meet in their design and manufacture. LVD applies to all electrical equipment with a rated voltage between 50 and 1000 volts AC and between 75 and 1500 volts DC. The main objective of the Low Voltage Directive is to ensure that electrical equipment sold in the EU market does not threaten human health and safety, while also protecting property and pets from harm. It requires manufacturers to take appropriate measures to prevent electric shock, fire, and other risks associated with the use of electrical equipment. Manufacturers must ensure that their products comply with the requirements of the LVD and undergo appropriate compliance assessment processes, such as internal production control or third-party testing. Products that successfully pass the assessment will be awarded the CE mark, indicating that the product complies with all applicable EU regulations and directives. The Low Voltage Directive is not only a legal requirement for manufacturers to sell electrical equipment in the EU market but also an important measure to protect consumers from unsafe products.
