Electrical safety classification, responsible suppliers and equipment certification or registration in participating jurisdictions.

Identify the market and product category first. Each dossier separates legal duties, referenced standards, evidence and the comparison needed for an award.
Jurisdiction & Product Scope
Check the destination state or territory and EESS participation before choosing the electrical route. NATA accreditation establishes a defined testing scope; it does not replace programme-specific laboratory acceptance, certification, supplier registration or product registration.
Market-specific Review
- Determine electrical scope and risk level, local responsible supplier and applicable state requirements before applying the RCM.
- Assess ACMA radio, EMC and exposure duties separately; a safety certificate alone does not establish ACMA compliance.
- For covered products, match GEMS or WELS test results to the applicable determination or standard, registration and label.
- For plumbing products, verify WaterMark scope and any relevant lead-free transition; retain installation limitations alongside water-efficiency evidence.

Applicability depends on the product classification, intended use, configuration and actual sales territory. Manufacturing, placing-on-the-market and testing dates, together with transition provisions, are checked as required by each applicable rule. The directory identifies sources; it does not replace assessment of the specific model. Standards are identified by reference, and their authoritative texts remain with the issuing bodies. Official source documents retain their original language.
