【2025 Certification Knowledge】Comprehensive Overview of the Latest CCC Certification Catalog for Explosion-Proof Electrical Products in 2025
Thread Content
Starting from May 1, 2025, explosion-proof lighting fixtures and control devices will be officially included under the CCC certification regime. All such devices listed in the CCC certification catalog must undergo CCC certification after May 1; only after obtaining the CCC certification mark can they be released for sale, imported into the country, or used in other business activities. This means that products without CCC certification will not be allowed to circulate in the market.
The following products are not covered by the CCC certification catalog.
China Compulsory Certification, abbreviated as CCC certification, is a product conformity assessment system implemented in China in accordance with laws and regulations to protect consumers’ physical safety and **safety, as well as to enhance product quality management. Products listed in the CCC certification catalog must undergo certification and be marked with the certification logo before they can be manufactured, sold, imported, or used in other business activities.
According to a announcement issued by the State Administration for Market Regulation, as of October 1, 2020, explosion-proof products must have CCC certification; otherwise, they cannot be produced or sold, and such production and sales are illegal.
Both the explosion-proof certification and the explosion-proof CCC certification are requirements for certifying explosion-proof equipment, but there are some key differences between them. It is mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1. Product scope: The explosion-proof certification is applicable to explosion-proof products that are not included in the catalog of products requiring explosion-proof CCC certification, whereas the explosion-proof CCC certification covers explosion-proof electrical equipment listed in the **Catalogue of Products Subject to Mandatory Certification**. 2. Certification method: The explosion-proof certificate is issued through a type test certification approach, meaning that it is sufficient to send samples for testing ； The explosion-proof CCC certification adopts a combination of type testing and factory audit, requiring product testing as well as on-site evaluation of the factory.
