Certification of Conformity Systems for Certification Service Facility Programme Baseefa has become the first certification body in the world to have its IECEx scope extended to include electrical Service Facility Certification. Accreditation to the Approved IECEx Certification Body status enables Baseefa to operate within the IECEx Certified Equipment Programme and as such can issue Certificates of Conformity covering Service Facilities for the repair and overhaul of equipment for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. |  |  | Introduction & Operation Manuals IECEx Certificates of Conformity are issued by approved IEEx CertBodies (ExCBs). An IECEx Certificate of Conformity attests that a Service Facility, described on the Certificate, has been independantly assessed and found to have appropriate equipment, competent staff and opperate procedures that provide confidence that the repair, overhaul or modification work complies with IECEx requirements, including IEC 60079-19. It also attests that the Service Facilitys site has been audited to verify that the Service Facilitys quality system meets IECEx requirements, specified in IECEx Operational Document OD 014. The IECEx Operational Documents listed below provide detailed information concerning the IECEx “On-Line” Certificate of Conformity System for Service Facilities and the processes for achieving IECEx Certification. Enquiries concerning IECEx Certification may be made direct to Baseefa, or alternatively any of the IECEx Certification Bodies, or the IECEx Secretariat.
