◉ Certification Introduction
SAA is the abbreviation of Standards Association of Australia, which is Australia's standards-setting body. In 1999, the association was changed to a limited company, called Standards Australia International Limited, or SAI for short. SAI is an independent joint-stock company and has no direct relationship with the government. We often refer to Australian certification as SAA certification. In fact, SAA is only a standard-setting body and does not issue product certification.
Electronic appliances and other products entering Australia (including Australia and New Zealand) must pass this certification, and the certification number will be marked on the product before they can legally enter Australia for sale. SAA does not have a fixed mark, which is represented by a certificate number. After a nationally recognized laboratory institution issues a certificate, the abbreviation code of the certification company and the registration certificate number are marked as "safety mark", and the certification number needs to be printed on the label.
◉ Product Range
Products controlled by SAA certification can be divided into mandatory electronic products and non-mandatory electronic products:
(1) Declared Electrical Products cover 56 categories of products, such as external power supplies or chargers, wires, plugs, some home appliances, lamps, etc. Regulated electrical appliances must obtain a certificate of approval issued by the monitoring department, that is, SAA certification, and require identification (must be marked with a certificate number).
(2) Non-Declared Electrical Products refers to products other than compulsory certification, such as commercial kitchen appliances. Although non-regulated products are not required to obtain certification, their safety is the responsibility of the seller/manufacturer and can voluntarily apply for certification. The monitoring department will issue a certificate of conformity (Certificate of Suitability) for products that meet the requirements of the standard. Electrical products that have obtained a certificate of conformity can be marked with a certificate number, and the last letter of the certificate shows which state or region issued the certificate.
◉ How to Apply
There are two ways to apply for SAA certification:
(1) direct application;
(2) Transfer through CB report. At present, customers often use CB reports to transfer to SAA. The SAA test standards are basically the same as IEC and EN standards, but there are slight differences; therefore, the Australian differences need to be written in the report during the test, and special attention is paid to the special requirements of the pins; Australian voltage single-phase 240V, three-phase 415V, frequency 50Hz.
◉ Application Process
(1) Fill in the application form (provide the required information for certification)
