On April 3, 2023, the Standardization Administration of China (SAC) issued notice on the revision plan of multiple mandatory national standards. Some of the to-be-revised standards are closely related with electrical and electronic products (EEP), especially home and commercial appliances, thus worth overseas EEP manufacturers’ attention.
The basic revising information of these EEP standards include:
Category | Standard/Project No. | TC in charge | Standard Name | National Standard to be Replaced | Relation with International Standard |
EMC | 20230472-Q-469 | TC79/SC8 Limits for the Protection of Radio | Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)– Generic standards – Part 3: Emission standard for equipment in residential Environments | GB 17799.3-2012 | IEC 61000-6-3:2020, IDT |
20230471-Q-469 | Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) –Generic standards – Part 8: Emission standard for professional equipment in commercial and light-industrial locations | GB 17799.3-2012 | IEC61000-6-8:2020, IDT | ||
Energy Efficiency | 20230474-Q-469 | TC 20 Energy Fundamentals and Management | Minimum allowable values of the energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for household and similar kitchen appliances | GB 21456-2014 | N/A |
20230452-Q-469 | Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for air cleaner | GB 36893-2018 | N/A | ||
20230455-Q-469 | Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for gas cooking appliances | GB 30531-2014 | N/A | ||
20230473-Q-469 | Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for commercial refrigerating appliances | GB 26920.1-2011 | N/A |
Foreign manufacturers producing EEP products are advised to track the revision of these standards, to avoid potential compliance risks.
