  1. TCB Accreditation Review William Hurst Chief, Technical Research Branch Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering and Technology Laboratory Division TCB Workshop May 2005

  2. ISO/IEC Guide 65 Accreditation • TCB Post-market Surveillance • Based on type testing of a few samples of the total number of product types that the TCB has certified. • General: 2 percent for a given year • Handset RF Exposure: 1 percent for a given year • Training of TCB Certification Personnel • Basic EMC Training • General RF Exposure Training • Part 22H/24E Handset RF Exposure TCB Workshop May 2005

  3. Acceptance of Test Data • “A TCB shall accept test data from any source, subject to the requirement in ISO/IEC Guide 65, and shall not unnecessarily repeat tests.” (2.962(f)(2)) • TCB shall review the test data and must be confident that the product complies. • TCB is required to maintain oversight of testing. • Test Lab that is 17025 accredited should not require additional review by TCB. • TCB shall provide a well documented procedure for review during the Guide 65 assessment. • It is not sufficient to say that FCC has accepted test data from a lab.
