V. Battery Cell CTIA Certification Application Process
1. The applicant signs a contract with the laboratory
2. The applicant applies for an account online through the CTIA database.
3. The applicant submits the certification application to CTIA through the CTIA database.
4. Applicants select laboratories online as CATL to evaluate IEEE1725 compliance.
5. Applicant submits declaration of conformity.
6. The applicant shall receive the Invoice from CTIA and pay to CTIA.
7. The applicant shall submit the required samples and documents to the laboratory.
8. The laboratory conducts the evaluation and finally upload the evaluation report to CTIA.
9. After the evaluation report is uploaded, CTIA will sign an agreement with the applicant.
10. CTIA recognizes subsystems or systems when all steps have been completed.
11. After being approved, you can view the information about the authenticated subsystems or systems online.
