General appraisal certificate (Allgemeines bauaufsichtliches Prüfzeugnis abP)

The German abP is classified as verification of applicability of non-regulated construction products that have no impact on the safety of a building. (Non-regulated: There are no standards as e.g. the German DIN standard.) In Germany, institutes in charge are e.g. the MPA authorised by the DIBt.
