ISED Certification Services

ISED certification (formerly Industry Canada certification) is required for electronic and RF devices marketed in Canada to demonstrate compliance with ISED regulatory standards. Devices are evaluated under standards such as ICES (Interference-Causing Equipment Standards) for unintentional radiators and RSS (Radio Standards Specifications) for intentional radiators. These standards define limits for electromagnetic emissions, radio performance, and spectrum usage.

The certification process includes EMI/EMC testing and RF testing to evaluate parameters such as radiated and conducted emissions, output power, occupied bandwidth, spurious emissions, and frequency stability. Testing is conducted in accordance with ISED standards and recognized procedures, often aligned with international standards such as CISPR and ANSI.

Products requiring certification must be tested at an ISED-recognized testing laboratory and approved by a Certification Body (CB). The process includes submission of technical documentation, test reports, labeling requirements (including the ISED certification number), and compliance with applicable RF exposure requirements (SAR or MPE limits) where applicable.

ISED certification services provided by accredited EMC labs help manufacturers ensure compliance with Canadian regulations, minimize interference risks, and enable market access for electronic and wireless devices in Canada.
