The NCB’s participating in the IECEE who are signatories (the “Signatories”) to this Multilateral Agreement (“The Agreement”), commit themselves to follow and to abide the latest version of the aforementioned Rules and Operational Documents in full unless restricted by declared law requirements in the country of the signatory. The IECEE CB Scheme is based on the principle of mutual recognition (reciprocal acceptance) by its Members of CB Test Certificates and Test Reports for the purpose of obtaining certification or approval at a national level. 2.

INDEMNIFICATION, LIABILITY AND INSURANCE 3.1 Legal protection The granting of certification of conformity shall not transfer to the CMC or to the IEC any of the legal responsibilities incumbent, under the national or international law, on the manufacturer or on the distributor of the product so certified. (Excerpt from sub-clause 11.3 of IECEE 01) 3.2 Exclusion of liability The national organizations acting on behalf of the CMC shall do so on their own responsibility and shall take all possible steps to exclude any liability from falling on the CMC or on the IEC. (Excerpt from sub-clause 11.4 of IECEE 01) 3.3 Exoneration In the case that the CMC or the IEC is held legally responsible, under national or international law, for any action taken by a national organization acting on behalf of the CMC, then the national organization involved shall undertake to exonerate fully the CMC and the IEC from such liabilities.
