近年來中國出口至美國及歐盟的產品常有被通報不符合法規的情事發生, 並有很大比例的不合規是因為含有過量的限制物質所造成。

中國為了避免這類不合規的情況一再發生，於2013年時由中國標準化研究院聯合十多家科研院校及企業, 向國家標準化管理委員會申請了國家標準立項: 消費品中化學危害限制要求, 並已獲得批準。並於2020年11月19日，國家標準化管理委員會發佈了2020年第26號公告，正式發佈 GB/T 39498-2020 – 消費品重點化學物質使用控制指南，即中國版的REACH 限制物質清單。

 

此標準是參照REACH Annex XVII (附錄第17章)，選取與消費品 (依據GB/T 35246-2017, 3.1的要求)相關的限制化學物質，並訂定”使用控制建議”, 即限制物質的含量限制要求。並如同REACH 附錄第17章，每項限制物質皆有對應受限制的產品，而非所有產品皆一體適用。而標準內所提到的限制物質清單，則是參考歐盟EN71-9, -10, -11, -12, RoHS, EU POPs等一百多項化學物質。目前指南中並未強制特定測試方法，但附錄A也列舉一些供參考

 

GB/T 39498-2020於2021年6月1日起實施。德國萊因(TUV Rheinland)能提供此指南的相關檢測服務, 若您有相關需求, 請隨時與我們聯繫

2021年4月， 澳洲的新南威爾士州公平交易署（NSW Fair Trading）發佈公告，闡明有關新南威爾士州對於電氣產品的標識要求。 (NSW即新南威爾士州。)

新南威爾士州為確保電氣產品安全自2009年引入REAS體系（Recognized External Approval Scheme），而後澳洲的昆士蘭州和維多利亞州等其他各州相繼採用RECS體系（Recognized External Certification Scheme）。兩個認證體系下的認證要求也略有不同，此次新南威爾士州的公告就特別說明其對於電氣產品的標識要求， 匯總如下：

-型號批准標識是商品的唯一標識號，對於NSW Fair Trading的證書，標識號格式為NSWxxxxx；對於REAS體系下發證單位頒發的證書，標識號格式為ABC-xxxxxx-EA。標識中包含唯一的批准標識編號使客戶或監管機構可以輕鬆地識別商品已獲批准及其認證機構。

-2020年11月13日起，REAS體系的條款作了修改，新南威爾士州不再接受認證產品只標識RCM標誌（不包括RCM在電氣產品上用於其他目的，比如EMC / EMI或其他管轄區域的電氣安全要求的目的。）

-如果您的產品在2020年11月13日之前已經獲得安全認證證書並已標識了RCM標誌在澳洲銷售，新南威爾士州將繼續認可。但針對新型號的申請包括原型號的變更申請，都需要按照REAS（以ABC-xxxxxx-EA形式的授權號）進行標識。建議同時標記兩者以確保產品在澳洲獲得廣泛認可。

官方公告請點選連結查看：pdf file

隨著新南威爾士州於2020年11月更新REAS條例及其2021年4月底的發佈的補充說明，對申報產品需列印授權標識號（Authorised Marking No.）已成為強制性要求。德國萊因公司頒證的授權標識號其格式為TUV-123456-EA。為了確保您的產品順利銷往澳洲各州，請在產品標籤上標示RCM標識及授權標識號（TUV-123456-EA），以符合澳洲各州份區域的認可及標識要求。

 

FAQ :

1. 是否應以2020.11.13日期簽發的證書，來區分在標籤上列印RCM標識或是授權號？

答：在2020.11.13後獲得REAS體系簽發證書的申報產品（Declare Article），需在產品標籤上列印授權標識以符合法規要求。

而RECS發證體系定義level 3產品需上傳EESS，並在標籤上列印RCM標識。

綜合以上，產品標籤上建議列印RCM標識和授權標識號（TUV-123456-EA）。

 

2. 如2020.11.13之前獲得簽發證書的產品，其產品標籤只有RCM標識沒有授權號，但已經出貨或者上架，是否可以繼續銷售？

答：可以繼續銷售。客戶在新一批的產品出貨時，建議在標籤上除了印RCM標識外增加授權標識號。

 

3. 授權標識號是否需要在RCM標識的下方？

答：兩者屬於不同的的發證體系下的標識，只要按要求列印在產品標籤上即可，並不要求印在一起。

Mexico 墨西哥

墨西哥於 2021 年 4 月 21 日發佈標準 NMX-J-521-2-14-ANCE-2020，涉及家用電器和類似產品 – 安全 – 第 2-14 部分：廚房機器的特殊要求。 NMX-J-521-2-14-ANCE-2020 取消之前的版本 NMX-J-521/2-14-ANCE-2013，建立家用和類似用途的炊具的安全特性，其額定電壓不超過大於 250 V。

This Declaration approves Mexican Standard NMX-J-521-2-14-ANCE-2020. It was published on 21st April 2021 and deals with Household appliances and similar – Safety – Part 2-14: Particular requirements for kitchen machines.

NMX-J-521-2-14-ANCE-2020 cancels the previous version NMX-J-521/2-14-ANCE-2013 and establishes the safety characteristics of electrical cooking appliances for household and similar use, whose rated voltage is not greater than 250 V.

It applies to appliances that are not intended for domestic use and those that may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances used by unskilled users in shops, light industries, and farms. If the appliance is intended to be used professionally to process food for commercial purposes, it is not considered to be for household or similar use only, and is outside the scope of the Standard.

This Standard does not apply to persons (including children) :

• with physical, sensory, or mental capabilities;
• whose lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction.

Similarly, it does not take into consideration use of the appliance as a toy.

NMX-J-521-2-14-ANCE-2020 is partly aligned with IEC 60335-2-14. Differences include (but are not limited to) the following:

– Modification of requirement in 5.2 to clarify the technical requirement for the application of the test, which if not specified, can lead to error during the test and due to this generate a potentially dangerous situation for the consumer.

– Modification of the wording of first paragraph of 7.1 so that the values are not perceived ambiguously, since these values are used to properly perform the tests of this Mexican Standard and, if not specified, can lead to error during the tests and in the future, a risk for the consumer. based on a bad evaluation.

– Replacement of the wording of the second paragraph of 25.7 due to the fact that Mexican Standard NMX-J-193-ANCE-2008 indicates a suitable test method to evaluate low temperature resistance compliance for power cords.

The Standard will enter into force 180 days from its publication in the Official Gazette.

On 12 May 2021, the South Korean Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS) issued a draft amendment to the Operation Bulletin of Electrical Appliances and Consumer Products Safety Control Act.

The draft was issued to establish provisions on modular products as the follow-up measures of the regulatory sandbox.

Specifically, the draft adds definitions of “module” and “modular products” in Article 2 as follows:

• modules are not individually electrical appliances subject to safety management, but they can be combined with modular products and change the detailed items subject to safety management;
• modular products can be combined with one or more modules, and detailed items subject to safety management can be changed through the addition and separation of modules at the place of consumption.

Among modular products, products that are combined at the place of consumption are regarded as the same models as products that are combined at the production place before release and obtained KC certification, and the detailed model classification, standards and detailed ranges that directly affect safety are applied.

Marking for detailed items that change when a module is added or separated must be indicated on each module. Furthermore, in order to avoid misunderstanding between the existing indications and the changed indications after the adding or separating of the modules, the existing indications should not be visible from the outside when the module is combined.

Interested parties are required to submit their comments to dy7824@korea.kr before 1 June 2021.

​[法規草案] 有關韓國KC62368-1:2021的頒佈實施草案。

預計在今年7月開始實施KC 62368-1：2021標準，但目前尚未正式確定時間，處於聽取意見階段，因此仍需繼續關注其實施日期。

草案提出，自2023年1月1日開始，僅能接受KC 62368-1：2021的標準；而在2022年12月31日前，標準KC 60065，K 60950-1以及K 60950-22仍然有效，客戶也可繼續提交這類標準的KC申請。

草案提出，對於已經簽發的KC 60065，K 60950-1以及K 60950-22的KC證書，如不作變動，證書還是可以繼續使用。但是，從2023年1月1日開始，一旦客戶需要對KC證書進行變更或者報備時，就必須同時進行標準升級，將證書標準同步為KC 62368-1：2021。

如有其他詳細資訊提出，後續再作更新。

Korean Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS) has released a draft of the standard of KC62368-1 (harmonized with IEC62368-1:2018) on April 19.2021. It is planned to be published after a period of hearing comments on the draft for 3 months. It is expected to be enforced in July, but it’s not confirmed yet. When KC62368-1:2021 is enforced, CBTC/TR of IEC62368-1:2018 is acceptable for KC approval.

The existing standards KC 60065, K 60950-1, and K 60950-22 are applicable until December 31, 2022 (Grace period). It means that new standard KC62368-1:2021 and the existing standards will all be valid during this grace period, but from Jan.1, 2023, only KC62368-1:2021 is aplicable.

The previous KC certificates don’t need to apply for the update of standard. However, if the certified product needs to be revised technically and apply for revision, it should be updated to the latest KC standard, KC62368-1:2021 after Jan.1, 2023.
