  • "CE stands for Conformité Européenne, which is French for "European Conformity."" If it's on a product, it means that it can be sold legally in the European Union. http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/question135.htm Also see http://www.conformance.co.uk/logos/ce_logo/ce_logo.php and http://www.ce-marking.org/what-is-ce-marking.html
  • Officially, it doesn't stand for anything: those two letters in that particular shape are a certifying mark by which the manufacturer or importer certified that it has been designed to meet EU standards. It is just a symbol, like the stylized UL of the US Underwriters Labs certification. Unofficially, of course it stands for Conformité Européenne.
