The BASEC mark
To be clear, only cable marked “BASEC” is BASEC approved and has demonstrated its compliance to the required standards.
A manufacturer may apply for a licence to display the BASEC mark on its products once BASEC verifies that the product fully complies with specification.Whether it is your responsibility to specify, install or stock cable, by choosing a product that is BASEC approved you can rest assured your choice has undergone the necessary certification process that ensures safety and leaves nothing to chance.
BASEC-approved manufacturers recognise quality and safety and this should be seen as a sign of assurance for contractors and wholesalers.
BASEC employs accredited independent laboratories to conducts tests to all specifications and standards and ensure that approved products undergo fully independent test procedures using the latest equipment and technology.
The organisation also examines and tests manufacturers’ production processes and controls and will regularly revisit manufacturers to ensure ongoing quality levels are maintained.
