The
level of testing must exceed
that of the equipment being tested
An example is the capital testing equipment that EFE
Labs installed at Lutron. Lutron Electronics Co., Inc.,
is the world’s leading designer and manufacturer
of lighting controls, architectural lighting control
systems, and shading solutions for residential, commercial,
and institutional applications.
In dimmer switch manufacturing, calibration of the switches
is most important. All switches set at 25%, should emit
exactly 25% of output. Designing and setting up capital
test equipment and establishing calibration procedures
was accomplished within an agreed upon budget and time
frame.
