New CCAP Implementation Rules for the voluntary certification of motor vehicle horns, brake hoses and fuel tanks

18. September 2018

Since the announcement no. 11 of CNCA the CCC certification for motor vehicle horns, brake hoses and fuel tanks are no longer mandatory. Instead manufacturers can undergo a voluntary CCAP certification or CQC certification. The CCAP adjusted therefore the Implementation Rules of those three product groups accordingly. The Implementation Rules are now marked with an addition of an “A” after the year (motor vehicle horns: CCAP-SB-3721:2018A; brake hoses: CCAP-SB-3561:2018A; fuel tanks: CCAP-SB-1101:2018A). The essential adjustments of the three Implementation Rules consist of a modification of CCAP internal specifications for the process of certification, the part marking, and the control procedures for the documentation of marked products. Please note that the latest version of Implementation Rules must be available during your next factory inspection.

According to the requirements of GB Standards (national standards) during a voluntary certification different tests are made. For the above-mentioned product groups those requirements can be found in the following GB standards: GB 15742-2001, GB 16897-2010 and GB 18296-2001. The Implementation Rules present the corresponding guidelines and have now been adjusted.
