ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Product certification

Product certification is when a government or an independent organization (like a testing lab) tests a product to make sure it is safe and reliable. They might test how long it will last, how it works, and if it is made of safe materials. When a product passes the tests, it gets a 'certificate' that tells people it is safe. When you buy something with a certification on it, you can trust that it has been checked and is safe to use.
