SYMBOLS & CERTIFICATIONS
CE Mark: The CE mark is a mandatory
conformity marking for certain products -
including light fixtures - sold within the European
Economic Area (EEA) and indicates the compliance
with EU legislation of a product. It is also found
on products that are manufactured in the EEA
but sold outside the EEA and is therefore an
internationally recognisable symbol of compliance
to EU legislation regarding product safety, health,
quality and environmental protection. It is similar to
the FCC Declaration of Conformity used on certain
electronic goods sold in the United States.
Class II: A Class II (Class 2) or double
insulated electrical appliance (light fixture) is one
which has been designed in such a way that it
does NOT require a safety connection to electrical
earth (ground). An added layer of safety against
electrical shock is acheived by using double layers
of insulating material or reinforced insulation
protecting any live parts of the fitting.
Class I: A Class I (Class 1) appliance is one
that must have its body connected to electrical
earth by a separate earth conductor. The earth
connection is achieved using a 3-core cable.
Waterproof Symbol: This water droplets
symbol indicates that the product is moisture-
resistant and suitable for use in bathrooms and
outdoors. The product has a minimum IP rating
of IP44 (most are IP54 or greater), meaning it is
protected from water spray from any direction.
UL Certified: The UL symbol means the
product, after a series of testing, meets the UL
nationally recognised Standards of Safety. UL is
an American non-profit organisation dedicated to
public safety and Mullan Lighting is proud to have
the majority of its products UL certified.
SASO: The Saudi Standards, Metrology and
Quality Organisation (SASO) is a standards and
conformity authority in Saudi Arabia. Goods being
imported into Saudi Arabia must be accompanied by
a Certificate of Conformity (CoC). This certification
is available on request.
UKCA: The UK Comformity Assessment
(UKCA) mark is a UK product marking required
for products being sold in Great Britain (England,
Wales and Scotland). It covers most products that
previously required the CE mark.
