TAIWAN: AMENDMENTS TO THE LEGAL INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR PLUGS AND SOCKET-OUTLETS

JNM Global 제이엔엠글로벌 2022. 9. 30. 14:53

 

Plugs and socket outlets for fixed wiring are having more and more diversified functions, e.g., wireless control, timing control, and induction control. Household switches for fixed wiring are gradually being replaced by electronic switches.

 

As a result of risk assessment, BSMI proposes to add 8 products for fixed wiring with wireless control, wired network control, timing control, voice control, motion sensing, light sensing, and electricity calculation functions into the scope of legal inspection.

 

The scope of covered products is as follow:

 

For products newly added to the legal inspection scope, they (both imported and domestically manufactured) will be subject to inspection beginning on 1 January 2025. The conformity assessment procedure is Type-Approved Batch Inspection (TABI) or Registration of Product Certification (RPC). Applications for TABI or RPC can be made upon the date of adoption of this measure.

 

Should you have any comments on the proposal, please send your opinion to JNM until 10 November 2022.
