▍What is CB Certification？

IECEE CB is the first genuine international system for mutual recognition of electrical equipment safety test reports. NCB (National Certification Body) reaches a multilateral agreement, which enables manufacturers to obtain national certification from other member countries under CB scheme on the basis of transferring one of the NCB certificates.

CB certificate is a formal CB scheme document issued by authorized NCB, which is to inform other NCB that the tested product samples conform to present standard requirement.

As a kind of standardized report, CB report lists relevant requirements from IEC standard item by item. CB report not only provides results of all required testing, measurement, verification, inspection and assessment with clearness and non-ambiguity, but also including photos, circuit diagram, pictures and product description. According to the rule of CB scheme, CB report will not take effect until it presents with CB certificate together.

▍Why we need CB Certification?

1. Directly recognized or approved by member countries

With CB certificate and CB test report, your products can be exported to some countries directly.

1. Convert to other countries certificates

The CB certificate can be directly converted to the certificate of its member countries, by providing the CB certificate, test report and difference test report (when applicable) without repeating the test, which can shorten the lead time of certification.

1. Ensure the Safety of Product

The CB certification test considers the product’s reasonable use and foreseeable safety when misused. The certified product proves the satisfactory of the safety requirements.

Since May 1, 2022, CQC will adopt the latest revision of CQC11-464112-2015 Safety Certification Rules for Secondary Batteries and Battery Packs Used in Portable/Stationary Electronic Devices，which increases the certification requirements for lithium-ion batteries and battery packs for stationary electronic devices, as well as changes to the certification mode 2 and 3 certificate validity to 5 years.
Scope of application to increase the secondary batteries and batteries used in stationary electronic, including stationary information technology equipment (IT equipment), audio and video equipment (AV equipment), communication technology equipment (CT equipment), measurement control and laboratory electronic equipment and similar equipment. In addition, the uninterruptible power supply (UPS), emergency power supply (EPS) and other lithium-ion batteries and battery packs are also applicable to this implementation rule.
Change paragraph 4.2.1 Based on standards: The standard IEC 62133:2012, GB/T28164-2011 was deleted, and GB 40165-2021 Safety Certification Criteria for Lithium-ion Batteries and Battery Packs Used in Portable/Stationary Electronic Devices was added.
