Hardware Compliance Pre-Check Agent

A design checked against certification requirements before it goes to the test house

Hardware Compliance Pre-Check Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Safety and emissions certification is costly, and failing means a redesign and a retest. Before submission this agent reviews the design against the applicable standard's checklist: creepage and clearance distances, protective grounding, fusing, labeling, emissions measures like filtering and shielding, and required documentation. It checks each item against the schematic, layout notes and the standard's requirement. It also checks the certificates of bought-in modules, because the system approval depends on them. Where an item is missing or marginal, it describes the gap and a typical remedy. After design fixes it rereads the affected areas. It builds the checklist and the document pack the test house will ask for. You approve submission for testing. Edge case: a module whose certificate has lapsed is flagged even if the design meets the standard.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It marks the design ready only when every checklist item is met or has an accepted justification, and flags lapsed component certificates.

  • Flag marginal spacing and grounding as risks
  • Require current certificates for relied-upon components
  • Accept a justification only when documented

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Applicable standards
  • Checklist items and margins
  • Document pack contents
  • Markets or regions targeted

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Submitting the product for certification

Hard limits

  • Does not replace formal certification testing
  • Flags, does not approve compliance itself

It stops when

  • Done: checklist met and pack assembled
  • Stop: the applicable standard is not identified

An example run

What happensBefore the June submission of a charger at Halvorsen Power, the agent found creepage near one connector was 4.2 mm, below the 5 mm minimum. The power module's safety certificate had also expired. After the layout fix, the reread showed 5.6 mm, and the supplier sent a renewed certificate. The checklist was complete, and the compliance engineer approved submission.
