Certification Body for Products was founded as an independent part of the faculty in 2007. Due to the expansion to include inspection services, it is now one of the two parts of the Certification and Inspection Body for Products at the Faculty of Transport since February 25, 2026.
It cooperates with the Testing Laboratory of the Faculty of Transportation Sciences.

The Certification Body is accredited by the Czech Accreditation Institute and the services performed comply with European Standard ČSN EN/ISO IEC 17065:2013

Services

1. Assessing the Conformity of Railway Interlocking Plants with Standard Specification or with Another Normative Document

The Certification Body issues a Certificate of Product Conformity with the Standard Specifications/Normative Documents on the grounds of evaluation of documentation, eventually on the ground of tests performed by accredited testing laboratoriesunder conditions defined by applicants. The Certification Body can require to perform additional tests. The Certification Body performs the conformity assessment of products specified in the Attachment of the Certificate of Accreditation. The applicant selects the relevant standard, specifications/normative documents from the list of standards specified in Attachment of the Certificate of Accreditationor in the List of Normative Documents Included within the Flexible Scope of the Accreditation. The applicant specifies his selected standards in the Application for Certification.

The Certification schemes are defined in internal documents POSTUP IN 2021/01 and POSTUP IN 2021/02. The Certification Body performs QMS audits with respect to EN 50126-1, EN 50126-2, EN 50128, EN 50129.

The Certification Body can issue two versions of certificates which differ in their validity periods:

  1. If the applicant asks for an assessment of a prototype, the Certification Body issues a certificate without a validity period (infinity validity) and the certificate is valid only for the uniquely identified product.

  2. In other cases (mass production), the Certification Body issues a certificate with a 5-year validity period. The Certification Body performs subsequent annual inspections. If the product is not altered, the validity period can be prolonged. The applicant must submit a written application to the Certification Body and it must include a written proof that the product has not been altered. The Certification Body conducts an extra inspection to ensure the product’s conformity with the documentation and it issues a validity period extension based on the inspection results. The procedure can be repeated.
