The IECEE CB scheme is very much alive and well and more countries are joining every year. The scheme recently has been expanded to include not only a CB scheme, but as well, an EX and a FC scheme.
Not all that familiar with the EX scheme as that is intended for equipment used in explosive atmospheres (which I try to avoid), but the IECEE FCS (Full Certification Scheme) will start up very soon. To the best of my knowledge, the "biggies" such as UL and CSA have all qualified for that scheme. There is a meeting this week in Geneva of the IECEE management committee where some new accomodations are being debated. If you want to know the latest and the best, sign up for one of the Seminars (Toronto or San Jose) in the first week of July, where Joe Gryn will have session on that very topic.
