CFTA (Hong Kong Certification) According to the Hong Kong Electrical Products (Safety) Regulations, household appliances products are divided into "designated products" and "non-designated products" categories. Designated products include plugs, adapters, lampholders, flexible cords, extension units and unvented thermal storage type water heaters, these products are "essential safety requirements, must meet the" specific safety requirements. "In addition to these six kinds of product-specific other than home appliances are "non-designated products", just meet the "essential safety requirements" option.'s products comply with safety regulations before the sale has to be "certificate of safety compliance." could be accepted "consistent with certificates of safety, "the documents" issued by the product manufacturer self-declaration from the "recognized manufacturer" issued certificates and test reports, statements / certificates are based on the standard IEC standards, recognized manufacturer refers to its experimental Room has been recognized for the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department. And its ISO9002 quality management has been established and has been recognized manufacturers. The Hong Kong Electrical and Mechanical Services Department received a "recognized certification body" ranked in the Hong Kong Electrical and Mechanical Services Department web page queries (www.emsd.gov.hk).
In addition, in view of environment protection and energy is currently the mainstream of home appliances, Hong Kong has appointed the Hong Kong Energy Efficiency Labeling Scheme (EELS). The plan with other countries / regions EELS similar aims to promote greater consumer awareness of the importance of energy saving and environmental protection, stimulate production and consumption of energy-saving products in order to eventually achieve energy saving and environmental protection objectives. Hong Kong is still the EELS is voluntary participation, but by the relevant government departments and the Hong Kong's two power companies to help buy energy-saving products, customers tend to gain concessions in the household appliance. Distributor of products also tend to be more inclined to sell, therefore energy-saving products. EELS Scheme in Hong Kong since it was launched in 1995, includes household refrigerators, room air conditioners, washing machines, compact fluorescent lamps and electric clothes dryers.
According to the Regulation requires that all household electrical products shall comply with the "basic safety requirements" in order to protect the user from electrical products, or because of any danger caused by electrical products subject to external effects caused by hazards.
Comply with safety regulations before the sale of products in Hong Kong are required to obtain "certificates of safety compliance." On the prescribed products, may be accepted, "certificate of safety compliance" document are:
1, by a "recognized certification body" certificate or test report issued by these test report or certificate can be: - CB test certificates and reports; - By the Hong Kong Laboratory Accreditation Scheme or the Hong Kong Accreditation Service accredited organizations, a certificate issued by an approved or test reports; - By the Hong Kong Laboratory Accreditation Scheme or the Hong Kong Accreditation Office has a mutual recognition agreement by bodies recognized by the test report issued by organizations and sign the certificate.
2, "recognized manufacturer," issued a declaration of conformity: The best reference to the relevant format, ISO / IEC Guide 22:1982 "Manufacturers that meet the standards or other technical specifications of life information." For the prescribed products, in addition to the above documents need to have a kind of product manufacturers can also provide a declaration of conformity issued by a certificate of safety compliance. Statement / certificate is based on IEC standards are the latest standard. Certificate or report if they are considered illustrate the use of certain electrical products related to safety standards, that is to be accepted as a certificate of safety compliance. Recognized manufacturer refers to its laboratory at the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department has been recognized, and its ISO9002 quality management has been established and has been recognized manufacturers. The Hong Kong Electrical and Mechanical Services Department received a "recognized certification body" appears in the Hong Kong Electrical and Mechanical Services Department web page query: www.emsd.gov.hk, China Household Electrical Appliances Research Institute (BTIHEA) in August 2002 in Hong Kong Electrical and Mechanical Services Department one of the recognized certification bodies.
3, the application process of certificate of safety compliance Here is how to apply for certificates of safety compliance method of flow
Based on the process described above, manufacturers can choose to fit their specific circumstances way to get products into the Hong Kong market, "pass."

5, the energy requirements 5.1 Hong Kong Energy Efficiency Labeling Scheme (EELS) In addition, in view of environmental protection energy-saving appliances is currently the mainstream, many countries and regions and extent of energy saving products, makes provision for Hong Kong is no addition, the development of the Hong Kong Energy Efficiency Labeling Scheme (EELS). The plan with other countries / regions EELS like to encourage more consumers aware of the importance of energy saving and environmental protection, stimulate the production and consumption of energy-saving products in order to eventually achieve energy saving and environmental protection objectives. EELS in Hong Kong is still voluntary, but by the relevant government departments and the Hong Kong's two power companies to help buy energy-saving products, customers tend to gain concessions in power. Product distributors also tend to be more inclined to sell energy-saving products. EELS in Hong Kong since its inception in 1995, have included household refrigerators, room air conditioners, washing machines, compact fluorescent lamps, electric clothes dryers, water heaters, rice cookers, and dehumidifier, and three office equipment, including photocopying machines, multifunction devices and laser printers. In addition, the scheme has also been extended to cover petrol cars.
5.2 Energy Label
Registered appliances will be labeled "Grading Type" energy label.
Has applied for the energy labels will be tested in accordance with plans to require the power and energy efficiency indicators for rating. Energy Label is divided into five, the first one the most energy efficient, the first five are more favorably. (Left the label as the first level) Energy Label will provide the following information:
* Annual electricity consumption * Energy Efficiency Level • Other relevant information such as capacity or performance data
Hong Kong energy standard basic adoption of international standards such as ISO-5151: 1994 no wind pipe air conditioners and heat pumps performance testing and targets; ISO 13253:1995 duct air conditioner heat pump and wind the wind performance testing and targets.
Hong Kong telecommunications equipment certification and labeling requirements
1, verify: Telecommunications Administration Bureau is responsible for the prescribed technical specifications, to regulate the use of telecommunications equipment in Hong Kong's basic effectiveness; develop technical specifications for the main purpose is to ensure electrical safety, prevention of interference and the public network connection. Been tested and comply with the relevant technical specifications for telecommunications equipment, the TA will be awarded certificates.
