Certification Introduction
PSE certification (Product Safety of Electrical Appliance & Materials) is a market access system implemented by the Japanese government for electrical and electronic products, and is an important element of Japan's Electrical Product Safety Law (DENAN). On April 1, 2001, Japan revised the Electrical Safety Law, which is administered by METI (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan), which does not issue certificates directly, but authorizes third-party certification bodies to conduct conformity assessment tests and issue certificates.
METI has authorized Japan Electrical Safety and Environmental Technology Research Laboratory (JET) and Japan Quality Assessment Agency (JQA) as Certification Authorities (CABs), which are responsible for testing and certification of electrical and electronic products in accordance with regulations and for market surveillance. In addition, TUV, UL, CQC and other organizations are also qualified certification bodies.
According to regulatory requirements, all controlled electrical and electronic products in the manufacture or export to Japan before, need to submit a business declaration to the Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry, and in accordance with regulations to affix the PSE mark on the product. The Electrical Safety Law stipulates that Class A and B products are required to affix the PSE diamond logo and PSE round logo respectively. There are two applicable standards.
Provincial Order 1: Japanese domestic standards (EMI standards included)
Save Order 2: J standard (excluding EMI standard) = IEC standard + Japanese differences
Product Range
To date, there are 457 products under the control of the Electrical Products Safety Law. Among them, there are 116 products that can easily cause electric shock, fire and other accidents and are more dangerous, which are classified as "specific electrical products - known as Class A electrical products", such as chargers and adapters; the remaining 341 products that are less hazardous are classified as "non-specific electrical products - known as Class B electrical products". The remaining 341 less hazardous products are classified as "non-specific electrical products - known as Class B electrical products", the majority of small and large home appliances, lighting products, lithium batteries belong to Class B.

Application Process
1.Customer prepare sample and information to submit to GIG
2. GIG laboratory test, if it is PSE round, the letter of declaration will be issued by Hua Biao
3. For PSE diamond shape, factory inspection is also required
4. After the test and factory inspection, the issuing agency will issue PSE diamond certificate
