What is 3C certification?

The so-called 3C certification is the compulsory product certification system in China. The English name is China mandatory Certification and the English abbreviation is CCC.

The full name of 3C certification is "compulsory product certification system", which is a product conformity assessment system implemented by governments in various countries to protect consumers' personal safety and national security, strengthen product quality management and abide by laws and regulations.

In order to fulfill its WTO commitments, the China government issued a compulsory product certification system on February 3, 2006. From May 1 day, 2002, CNCA began to accept applications for certification of products in the first batch of compulsory product catalogues 132.

It is a product conformity assessment system implemented by the Chinese government according to the relevant WTO agreements and international rules to protect the personal safety, environment and national security of consumers, animals and plants. The main features are: the state issues a unified catalogue, determines the unified applicable national standards, technical rules and implementation procedures, formulates unified signs and signs, and stipulates unified charging standards. All products listed in the compulsory product certification catalogue must be certified by a certification body designated by the state, and can be shipped, imported, sold and used in business service places only after obtaining relevant certificates and applying certification marks.

On February 3, 2006, the General Administration of Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of China and the State Certification and Accreditation Administration jointly issued the Regulations on the Administration of Compulsory Product Certification, which implemented the compulsory certification management of "unified catalogue, unified standards and evaluation procedures, unified marks and unified fees" for the products listed in the Catalogue. The original CCIB certification and the Great Wall CCEE certification are unified into compulsory certification in China, which is referred to as CCC, so it is also referred to as 3C certification.

"3C" certification was fully implemented from May 1 day, 2003 (later postponed to August 1 day), and the original product safety certification and import safety and quality licensing system were abolished at the same time. At present, the published compulsory product certification systems include Regulations on the Administration of Compulsory Product Certification, Measures for the Administration of Compulsory Product Certification Marks, Catalogue of the First Batch of Compulsory Product Certification and Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning the Implementation of Compulsory Product Certification. The first batch of products listed in the compulsory certification catalogue include wires and cables, switches, low-voltage electrical appliances, power tools, household appliances, audio-visual equipment, information equipment, telecommunications terminals, motor vehicles, medical devices, safety precautions and so on.

It should be noted that the 3C mark is not a quality mark, but the most basic safety certification.

3C certification mainly attempts to solve the long-standing problems in China's product certification system, such as multiple policies, repeated review, repeated charges, separation of certification and law enforcement, and establish technical regulations, standards and conformity assessment procedures consistent with international rules, so as to promote trade facilitation and liberalization.

3C certification is the abbreviation of compulsory product certification in China. The legal basis, product scope, use of compulsory product certification marks and supervision and management of compulsory product certification are unified. The main contents can be summarized as follows:

(1) According to the relevant WTO agreements and international rules, the state implements a unified compulsory product certification system for products involving human health and safety, animal and plant life safety and health, environmental protection and public safety. The National Certification and Accreditation Administration is responsible for the management and implementation of the national compulsory product certification system.

(2) The main feature of the national compulsory product certification system is that the state publishes a unified catalogue, determines the unified applicable national standards, technical rules and implementation procedures, formulates unified signs and labels, and formulates unified charging standards. All products listed in the compulsory product certification catalogue must be certified by a certification body designated by the state, and can be shipped, imported, sold and used in business service places only after obtaining relevant certificates and applying certification marks.

(3) According to China's commitment to WTO and the principle of national treatment, the original two systems cover 138 products. The catalogue published this time deleted 16 products such as medical ultrasonic diagnostic and therapeutic equipment that were originally included in the compulsory certification management, and added 10 products such as safety glass for building. There are actually 60 compulsory certification products listed in the catalogue.

(4) The state uses uniform marks for compulsory product certification. The name of the new national compulsory certification mark is "China Compulsory Certification", the English name is "China Compulsory Certification", and the English abbreviation can be abbreviated as "3C" mark. After the compulsory certification mark is implemented in China, it will replace the original "Great Wall" mark and "CCIB" mark.

(five) the national unified determination of compulsory product certification fees and standards. The formulation of new charging items and charging standards will be based on the principle of not making profits and reflecting national treatment, comprehensively considering the current charging situation, and referring to similar certified charging items and charging standards abroad.

(6) The compulsory product certification system was implemented on August 1 2002, and the relevant certification bodies officially began to accept applications. The original product safety certification system and import safety and quality licensing system have been abolished since August 1 2003.

3C certification is actually the English abbreviation of the English name "China mandatory Certification" (China Compulsory Product Certification System), and it is also a unified symbol of the country's use of compulsory product certification. As the National Safety Certification (CCEE), Import Safety and Quality Licensing System (CCIB) and China Electromagnetic Compatibility Certification (EMC), the "CCC" authoritative certification is an advanced symbol of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of China and the National Certification and Accreditation Administration, with irreplaceable importance. It is a product conformity assessment system implemented by the Chinese government according to the relevant WTO agreements and international rules to protect the personal safety, environment and national security of consumers, animals and plants. Its main features are: the state issues a unified catalogue, determines the unified applicable national standards, technical rules and implementation procedures, formulates unified signs and signs, and stipulates unified charging standards. All products listed in the compulsory product certification catalogue must be certified by a certification body designated by the state, and can be shipped, imported, sold and used in business service places only after obtaining relevant certificates and applying certification marks. At present, the first batch of products that must pass the compulsory certification announced by China are 19 132. It mainly includes wires and cables, low-voltage electrical appliances, information technology equipment, safety glass, fire protection products, motor vehicle tires, latex products, etc.

3C logo is usually pasted on the product surface or molded on the product. If you look closely, you will find many small diamond-shaped "CCC" inscriptions. There is a random code behind each 3C logo, and each random code has a corresponding manufacturer and product. When issuing the compulsory product certification mark, the certification mark issuing management center has entered the product corresponding to the code into the computer database, and consumers can query the code through the CNCA compulsory product certification mark anti-counterfeiting query system.

The first batch of products subject to compulsory product certification

I. Wires and cables

Second, the circuit switch and protection or connection of electrical equipment

Xi。 Telecommunication terminal equipment

Twelve, motor vehicles and safety accessories

Thirteen. Motor vehicle tire

Fourteen safety glass

XV. Agricultural products

Sixteen, latex products

Seventeen, medical device products

Eighteen, fire protection products

Nineteen, security technology to prevent products

It should be noted that the 3C mark is not a quality mark, but the most basic safety certification. Some of its indicators represent the safety and quality of products, but they do not mean that the performance of products is equally excellent. Therefore, in the purchase of goods, in addition to whether there is a 3C logo, other indicators are also very important.

Interpretation 2:

3C also means: competitive and complete collective.

At present, "CCC" certification marks are divided into four categories, namely:

1, CCC+S safety certification mark

2.CCC+EMC EMC certification mark

CCC+S & amp; E safety and electromagnetic compatibility certification mark

4, CCC+F fire certification mark

Each of the above four signs has five sizes.

CCC logo is usually affixed to the product or pressed on the product by molding. The CCC logo designed at present not only has laser anti-counterfeiting, but also has a unique serial number for each model, and the serial number is not repeated. The method for consumers to distinguish between true and false CCC marks is simple.

If you carefully observe the CCC logo, you will find many small prismatic "CCC" inscriptions. In addition, the most difficult place to forge CCC logo is that there is a random code behind each logo, indicating the manufacturer and product corresponding to each random code. According to the random code, we can identify whether the source of the product is true or not.
