Hi Carl, According to my search last month, China has not started the Catalogue. It will take sometime. The Catalogue is not only to us, foreign manufacturers, but also to themselves, domestic manufactuers. They have to make sure their product manuacturers can meet the limit requirements before including those products in the Catalogue. This takes time. I will post any news regarding the Catalogue when available on government web sites. Regards, Grace On 4/18/07, Richards, Carl <carl.richa...@aspect.com> wrote:
Grace, A slight deviation to the subject, do you know what the current status of the Key Catalogue is for the RoHS regs please Many thanks Carl Carl Richards, Regulatory Compliance Manager, Aspect Software 2, The Square Stockley Park, Uxbridge, UB11 1AD, United Kingdom +44 (0)208 589 1461 Office +44 (0)870 460 1950 Fax +44 (0)7875 27 1461 Mobile carl.richa...@aspect.com <http://www.aspect.com/> www.aspect.com _____ From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto: <mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org> emc-p...@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Grace Lin Sent: 18 April 2007 13:03 To: emc-p...@ieee.org Subject: China CNCA 2007 Notice No 9 To Those Who are Interested In: On April 17, 2007, CNCA published its revised description and clarification of compulaory certification product catalogue. The notice can be found at <http://www.cnca.gov.cn/cnca/zwxx/ggxx/15170.shtml> http://www.cnca.gov.cn/cnca/zwxx/ggxx/15170.shtml. The file associated with this notice can be found at <http://ww .cnca.gov.cn/cnca/zwxx/ggxx/images/20070418/1654.doc> http://www.cnca.gov.cn/cnca/zwxx/ggxx/images/20070418/1654.doc. Instead of 19 categories and 132 items, it is 22 categories and 159 items. For those who cannot read in English, it may be difficult to understand the content. The table does not include HS codes. One way to read part of content is to read the standard number(s) from the last column. Many GB standards are identical to international standards. To find out the corresponding international standards (if any), follow the following instruction: Open www.sac.gov.cn <http://www.sac.gov.cn/> Click " 强制性国家标准免费阅读 (mandatory national standard free read) " located at the lower left corner Click " 进入强制性国家标准阅读 (enter mandatory national standard read)" located at the bottom of the text Type standard number in the first field, such as "GB 9254" Click " 检索 (search)" Click the little rectangular icon on the left A page of this standard information shows up. It includes the standard's title in English, degree of adoption of reference standard (IDT CISPR 22: 1997 means identical to the CISPR 22: 1997), etc. The above instruction only applies to GB standards, not GB/T standards. It is my understanding that any product not within the scope of the standard does not under the scope of CCC certification.
