World's No. 2 Testing Facility Infrastructure Supports Global Expansion of Korean Companies
Qualification as a full member of the World Short Circuit Testing Association, with high reliability and universality
As the domestic power equipment industry is achieving remarkable results in the global market and ushering in a ‘K-power equipment renaissance,’ there is an organization that has emerged as a key supporter. This is the testing and certification service of the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI).
KERI is a global testing and certification organization with 50 years of history, responsible for verifying the stability and reliability of power equipment even in high-voltage and high-power environments.
In particular, it has the world's second-largest testing facility infrastructure following Italy's CSEI, which is a strong competitive edge supporting the global expansion of domestic power equipment companies.
Above all, it is noteworthy that KERI holds full membership in the Short Circuit Testing League (STL).
This is an authoritative status that only 12 institutions worldwide have obtained, and test results issued by STL full member institutions are highly trusted and accepted in the international market.
KERI is the only organization in Asia that holds this qualification, and its recognition is so high that it is requested by people in Japan, China, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
With the recent spread of AI technology and the increase in data centers, the demand for electricity has skyrocketed, and with the demand for replacement of aging power equipment, the industry has entered a super cycle. KERI's testing and certification is positioned as a key infrastructure for expanding power equipment exports.
Domestic companies are increasing their export competitiveness through fast and reliable KERI testing instead of expensive overseas testing.
In addition, KERI conveys the voices of domestic manufacturers to international organizations and contributes to raising technological prowess to world-class levels through educational programs that reflect the latest international standards trends.
Participation in various international exhibitions and promotion of the test report brand are also continuing, strengthening the global capabilities of the entire domestic industry.
KERI President Kim Nam-gyun said, “KERI testing and certification played a major role in enabling Korea to become a country with a stable power supply through high-reliability power equipment.”o; and said, “We will continue to lead the K-electric equipment renaissance as a global testing and certification brand recognized solely with the KERI logo.”
