Under qualification approval, the qualification will be conducted in accordance with 12.2 of IEC 60966-2-1:2008 taking into account the specified variants. Only the tests whose results might depend on the variants will be repeated

Under capability approval, the qualification will be conducted on the relating CQCs (capability qualifying components) as defined in 12.3 of IEC 60966-2-1:2008 and described in the CM (capability manual). Unless otherwise specified in the CM, only lot-by-lot tests from groups Ba and Eb will be conducted on delivered products, all other tests will be performed on CQCs as defined in 12.3 of IEC 60966-2-1:2008 and described in the CM.
