Featuring a staff of more than 15 NARTE-certified (National Association of Radio and Telecommunications Engineers) and EMC engineers, the Novi facility will offer test services to a variety of customers. However, it includes specialized test chambers for Ford, DaimlerChrysler, and General Motors. The lab is equipped with a CISPR 25 radiated emissions chamber, a humidity- and temperature-controlled electrostatic discharge room, and RF anechoic chambers. These setups will let UL engineers test a range of products, from components to entire cars.
