Microwave oven

The safety standards for household appliances have extremely high global universality, and are mostly based on the IEC 60335 series.

Detecting dimensions	Chinese mandatory standards	International/EU standards	North American standards	Example of core testing content
General safety requirements	GB 4706.1	IEC 60335-1 EN 60335-1	UL 60335-1	Anti electric shock (Class I/II structure), heating (winding temperature rise), abnormal operation (motor stalling, transformer overload).
Special product standards	GB 4706. X series	IEC 60335-2-X	UL 60335-2-X	For specific products, such as GB 4706.19 (liquid heaters) and GB 4706.27 (fans).
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)	GB 4343.1 (Harassment) GB 17625.1 (Harmonics)	EN 55014-1/-2 EN 61000-3-2/-3	FCC Part 15B	Conducted disturbance (affecting the power grid), radiated disturbance (affecting the radio/TV), and electrostatic discharge immunity (touch screen crash).
Standby/shutdown power consumption	GB 24849	(EU) 2023/826 ErP instruction	DOE Energy Efficiency	Shutdown power consumption ≤ 0.50W, standby with information display ≤ 1.00W (stricter EU regulations).

Not all household appliances require CCC certification, only those listed in the mandatory product certification catalog must affix the CCC mark.

product category	Do we need CCC certification	according to the standard	special focus
Air conditioning, electric water heater, electric stove	Yes (safety and energy efficiency)	GB 4706.1 Special Requirements	Flammable refrigerants (such as R32/R290) require additional explosion-proof risk assessment.
Electric fan, range hood, rice cooker	is	GB 4706.1 Special Requirements	The mechanical protective net cover of the fan should not touch the fan blades.
Humidifiers, air purifiers	is	GB 4706.45 / GB 4706.1	24-hour monitoring limit for ozone concentration (purifier).
Massage equipment, beauty device	is	GB 4706.10 / GB 4706.15	IPX4 waterproof rating (foot bath, facial cleanser).
Refrigerator, washing machine, TV	It is a (safety) energy efficiency label	GB 4706.13 / GB 4706.24	The refrigerator needs to undergo material odor and RoHS environmental assessment.
Small kitchen appliances (juicer, coffee maker)	is	GB 4706.30	Reliability of interlock switch (lid opening and shutdown).
Lighting fixtures, power adapters	is	GB 7000.1 / GB 4943.1	Although not a "household appliance", it is often used in conjunction and must be independently certified by CCC.

Exemption: Export pure export, scientific research exhibits, and ATA temporary import and export products can apply for exemption from CCC.

The three major mountains that must be crossed when exporting to the EU:

CE certification (Safety EMC RoHS):
- Safety: According to EN 60335 series.
- Hazardous substances: RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) restricts 10 items including lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, PBDE, DEHP, etc.
- Wireless: If equipped with WiFi/Bluetooth, the RED directive (2014/53/EU) needs to be tested.
ErP Energy Efficiency Directive (mandatory labeling):
- Energy efficiency labels: from A to G levels (returning to A-G simple grading from 2021).
- Ecological design: If the power limit of the vacuum cleaner is ≤ 900W and the suction force needs to meet the standard.
WEEE Recycling Directive:
- It is necessary to register with the German EAR Foundation or the French Ecologic recycling system and bear the electronic waste disposal fees.

UL Safety Certification:
- Although not legally mandatory, Amazon, Wal Mart and Costco are mandatory.
- Core standard: UL 60335 series (recently transferred from old standards such as UL 1026/1082 to UL 60335).
- Special requirement: The power cord plug must be UL 817 certified polarized or grounded plug.
FCC certification (electromagnetic compatibility):
- FCC Part 15 Subpart B: Verify that the product does not interfere with other devices such as radios and televisions.
DOE energy efficiency:
- The US Department of Energy mandates that external power adapters must achieve Level VI efficiency.
- California CEC: stricter requirements, in addition to energy efficiency, RoHS testing is also required.

Regulatory hotspots	specific product	core requirements
Food Contact Materials (FCM)	Electric kettle, coffee machine, juicer	Plastic/silicone in contact with water/food must pass the GB 4806/EU 10/2011 total migration test (bisphenol A content ≤ 0.05 mg/kg).
Chemical substance restriction	All household appliances with plastic and wire	EU REACH Appendix XVII restricts PFAS (perfluorinated compounds commonly used in non stick coatings) and SCCP (short chain chlorinated paraffins).
Software Security and Privacy	Smart refrigerator, smart air conditioner (networked)	Must comply with ETSI EN 303 645 (Consumer Internet of Things Security Baseline) and prohibit default weak passwords.
New regulations on standby power consumption ErP	All household appliances with electronic displays	Starting from May 2025, the EU will implement EU 2023/826 and tighten the standby power consumption limit to 0.3W.

nonconforming item	Typical product	reason
Power connection and external flexible cord	Electric fan, electric heater	The power cord diameter is too thin (such as 0.5mm ² pretending to be 0.75mm ²), which causes heating and fire.
Grounding measures	Electric water heater, air conditioner	The grounding terminal has no anti loose washer, or a yellow green dual color wire is used for current carrying.
Protection against contact with live parts	Electric oven, baking tray	The test probe (B-type probe) can reach the heating tube lead.
Abnormal Work (Chapter 19)	Electrical appliances	The temperature rise of the winding after motor stalling exceeds the insulation level limit, resulting in insulation melting and short circuit.
