New GB Standards issued for Low-Voltage Switchgear and Controlgear in China

7. November 2024

In an update to product certification standards, the low-voltage switchgear and controlgear industry in China will now adhere to the newly established GB/T14048.09-2024 and GB/T 14048.11-2024 standards. These replace the earlier GB/T14048.09-2008 and GB/T 14048.11-2016 standards respectively, per the recent resolution aimed at enhancing the quality and safety of multifunctional and transfer switching devices. Low-voltage switchgear requires CCC certification in order to be approved for import and sale in China.

The new standards introduce stricter requirements and advanced specifications to ensure heightened performance, reliability, and safety for low-voltage switchgear equipment. Manufacturers and suppliers will be required to ensure their products meet these updated standards to maintain compliance and certification.
