A global supplier of power, data and control cables, Eland Cables, has become the first UK cable supplier to achieve UKAS ISO 17025 accreditation for its Cable Lab, an in-house, specialist cable testing laboratory. ISO 17025 is an important standard for calibration and testing laboratories around the world and accreditation to this international standard has demonstrated that the Cable Lab is technically competent and able to produce precise and accurate test results.

Third parties can now access accredited testing services that provide independent, objective and comprehensive quality assessment of cables and the provision of a test report, including RoHS testing and the requirements for SONCAP approval.

Philip Brown, CEO of Eland Cables explained: “We have always provided unrivalled expert technical support to our customers, recognising the vital importance of cable testing to assess product integrity and the advantages of expert advice to assure appropriate performance, safety and cost-efficiency for a multitude of applications across all industry sectors."

"The company is able to establish a full audit trail for the testing of cables and reporting of results and, by using Eland, customers are able to demonstrate that they have exercised due diligence in the selection and appointment of their cable supplier."
