1、 Introduction to PSE Certification

PSE certification is a mandatory safety certification in Japan, used to prove that motor and electronic products have passed safety standard tests under the Japanese Electrical and Material Safety Law (DENAN Law) or international IEC standards. According to Japan's DENTORL Law (Electrical Appliance and Material Control Law), 498 products entering the Japanese market must pass safety certification. Among them, 165 A-class products should obtain the diamond shaped PSE logo, and 333 B-class products should obtain the circular PSE logo. Since April 1, 2001, the Electrical Product Control Law (DENTORL) has been officially renamed as the Electrical Product Safety Law (DENAN). Unlike the control of contractual provisions in previous regulatory systems, the new system will be ensured by unofficial organizations to ensure product safety.

2、 Scope of PSE certified products

165 types of A-class products are as follows:

Wires and cables, fuses, wiring fixtures (electrical accessories, lighting appliances, etc.), current limiters, transformers, ballasts, etc

Electric heating appliances, electric powered mechanical appliances (household appliances), electronic mechanical appliances (high-frequency hair removal devices)

Other electrical and mechanical appliances for communication (electric shock insecticides, DC power supply devices), carrying engines

333 types of B-class products are divided into 7 parts:

1. Simple wiring conduit and junction box;

Simple single-phase motor between 2.100V-300V;

3. Household electric heating products;

4. Household electric or gaming products;

5. Civil or household products that use light sources;

6. Household and commercial electronic products;

7. Other electrical products between 100V-300V.

3、 PSE certification requires preparation of materials

1. Application submission materials: business license, application form;

2. Test preparation materials:

1) CB report (including differential testing in Japan);

2) Circuit diagram (Layout);

3) PCB design drawings related to safety regulations;

4) Specification sheet for transformer and coil components;

5) List of key components and their certificates;

6) Japanese user manual or assembly manual;

7) Japanese nameplates and warning signs (including PSE logo and supplier name notification);

8) Structural data table;

9) List and calibration certificates used in factory production.

3. Provide samples for testing: at least two main inspection models and one derivative model each.

4、 Validity period of PSE certification certificate

A-class diamond shaped models are available in 3, 5, and 7 years (depending on the product)

B-class circular ones are available for 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years (depending on the product)
