CCC: New Chinese Regulations for Audio and Video Products
22. October 2014The Chinese authority CNCA (Certification and Accreditation Administration) published 31 new regulations (“Implementation Rules”) affecting the CCC Certification of various products in July of 2014. Included in these new regulations are audio and video products, which will be subject to new certification requirements of the Implementation Rule for audio and video equipment (CNCA-C08-01-2014).
The changes of the certification requirements apply mainly to the following aspects:
- Changes of the applicable GB Standards
- Changes in the requirements for unit classification
- Changes in the application documents
- Changes in the certification time
Audio and video products, such as amplifiers, powered speakers, MP3 players, CD/DVD players, vision systems and display monitors must be certified in compliance with the new Implementation Rules. This will affect both applicant manufacturers and holders of valid certificates of certified products, which may need to be tested again.
The new Implementation Rules for audio and video products became effective on September 1, 2014. Manufacturers of these products will need to comply with the new regulatory changes, adjust their ongoing certification process and get their products re-tested if required.
