What's the application of mandatory certification requirements of the LED light on the Japanese and Mexican market

1, the Japanese market

Japan is the world's major LED industry base, the technological level and production value are ahead of other countries, holding the majority of the LED end market. LED standards are also ahead of other countries in Japan, the first white LED testing standards was develop in Japan. LED lighting products are to enter the Japanese market, we must firstly meet the "Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law" and its related implementation regulations. The power control module of the LED products currently mainly subject to the "Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law" , if the power supply is external, which need to be detected based J61347-2-13 (ie JISC61347-2-13), having been passed, the Diamond PSE signs is affixed. The electromagnetic compatibility needs to meet mandatory J55015 standards.

From July 1, 2012, the LED bulbs and LED light fixtures sold on the Japanese market has become the control object of the "Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law", which need to be affixed Circle PSE Mark. the scope of rated voltage of the LED products controlled is limited at 100 ~ 300V. 50Hz and 60Hz AC circuit is used for the LED lamps and bulbs whose rated power is greater than 1W. Although LED is adopted as the light source of some table lamp, rechargeable flashlight, advertising lights, decorative lights, portable lights and gardens light etc., , but not classified as "LED lamps." For the certified safety and EMC standards of Japanese LED products, only one province, two province of the harmonized standard has currently not yet been introduced. Therefore, IEC standard relevant to the LED is not among the acceptable range of "Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law". From July 1, 2012, the most feasible and most cost-saving method is based on the Japanese province1 technical benchmark to manufacture LED bulbs and LED light fixtures.

2, the Mexican market

In recent years, Mexico began to attach importance to the green energy industry, actively developing green energy in order to creat the important emerging industries. Since September 1, 2011, the Mexican government announced the formal implementation of energy-saving lighting plan in the national. Mexico has planed to gradually replace the incandescent lamps with energy saving before 2014. Mexico is the largest energy consuming country, its LED lighting market is huge.

For LED lighting products, its NOM certification of the safety and energy efficiency is a mandatory requirement to enter the Mexican market, NOM does not currently propose mandatory requirements on the electromagnetic compatibility. Whether locally manufactured or imported products in Mexico shall comply with the relevant NOM standards and product labeling requirements.

Mexico LED lighting safety requirements is mainly regulated by NOM-003-SCFI-2000 standard requirements. This standard relates to the safety requirements of the electrical product, which is a normative framework and does not require specific technical requirements, must pass NMX-J-521/1-ANCE-2005 standard test, which is mainly based on the standard IEC60335-1: - Safety of the Household and similar electrical appliances + Mexican bias. While LED lighting products must comply with the consuming information of the NOM-024-SCFI-1998 requirements.

In order to meet the energy efficiency requirements of the lighting products in the country ,LED lighting products must pass the mandatory energy efficiency certification to enter the Mexican market The certification is Specifically implemented by the certification organization accredited by the Mexican authorized organization, which is part of compulsory certification of the product in Mexico .Can’t be sold in domestic Mexico until the products belonging to the mandatory energy efficiency certification is certified and affixed the energy efficiency label reflecting the energy use of product.

In 2012, the Mexican Ministry of Energy have released two energy efficiency requirements about LED lighting products, , mainly the energy efficiency specifications and test methods for the general lighting of the LED bulbs , and outdoor lighting such as the LED flood light.

For LED lighting products, Don’t be awarded NOM certification until the LED lighting products comply with both the safety and mandatory energy efficiency requirements to enter the Mexican market.

Meanwhile,there are a large number of manufacturers specializing in developing and producing LED light, lead lighting is one of them，Lead lighting has been continuing to strengthen the use of certified raw materials such as  LED chips, LED drivers, heat sinks, shell, etc., and improve R & D and production team, striving to adopt the best materials and technology to produce best quality LED flood light, LED tunnel light, LED tube light and other indoor and outdoor lighting, using highly integrated high-brightness COB as the light source of the  LED Flood light and LED tunnel light and other outdoor lighting，adopting high brightness SMD LED as the light source of the LED tube light, the low-voltage constant current driver ensure the alternating current can be convert into direct current so that improve the energy use and reduces the stroboscopic effect stimulating the human eye, fully guarantee octahedron illuminated area of LED flood lights and bright light to adapt to outdoor open environment ，the soft and bright light of the LED tunnel light and LED tube light makes us safe driving in tunnels and enjoy work and study.As an ISO 9001:2000-certified factory,the lead lighting can meet the strict standards of CE, RoHS, FCC certificate, these strict producing standards guarantee our products distribute smoothly both in domestic and international markets. visit www.ledclan.com to Learn more vivid and specific characteristics of the LED tube light or click www.lead-lighting.com for more detailed and professional features and uses of the LED lighting.
