Project Description

TÜV

What is TUV?

A TUV certification means a sampling of the product has been tested for safety and found to meet the minimum requirements of the German Equipment and Product Safety Act. … GS is an acronym for Geprüfte Sicherheit (meaning “tested for safety” or “certified for safety”).

TUV stands for (Technischer Überwachungsverein, English translation: Technical Inspection Association). But the actual name of the organization has become obscure through the ages especially since the organization has developed an international reputation. The acronym of TUV only relates well to the German name.
