Curt, The main difference is that a major component in your system such as a power supply or monitor must also be CCC Certified or must have the component evaluated separately by the China test house. This can be done by by submitting an IEC CB Test Report with China deviations on the component or tested in-country. You are correct in that for many product categories, the Chinese GB standards are equivalent to their IEC equivalent standards. Unlike CE which is a self declaration by the manufacturer, getting a CCC certificate also involves an initial inspection at the factory and yearly follow-up inspections. Best Regards, Peter
