Certification Introduction:
In order to improve the energy efficiency of electrical equipment and products in various industries and enhance significant economic and environmental benefits, Australia and New Zealand issued the Greenhouse and Energy Low Standard Technical Regulations (GEMS) and came into effect on October 1, 2012. The new The GEMS regulations replace the previous MEPS certification (Minimum Performance Standards).
In terms of MEPS registration according to GEMS regulations, compared with the past, applicants are no longer able to choose any state to register on the Australian official website. Instead, they are required to register with the Australian Regulator. At the same time, within all Australian states and jurisdictions, For all product types, GEMS regulations no longer set a single registration fee. Product types will be divided into four categories. Registration fees range from AUD 440 to AUD 780, and the registration period is 5 years.
Products currently controlled by GEMS certification include:
Compact fluorescent lamps, extra low voltage converters, double-ended fluorescent lamps, fluorescent lamp ballasts, incandescent lamps, washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, external power supplies, televisions, digital set-top boxes, electric water heaters, air conditioners and heat pumps, three-phase motors , household refrigeration appliances, refrigeration towers/precision air conditioners, commercial refrigerators, display cabinets, distribution transformers, etc.
Application process
1. Select products for testing. The standards for testing are consistent with the original MEPS certification. Generally speaking, any test report provided by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory can be recognized;
2. Submit test reports and other materials for GEMS registration. After passing the review of the materials, you will receive a GEMS certification certificate. The new GEMS regulations mainly have new requirements in terms of registration. Applicants cannot select a single state for registration, but must go to the Australian Regulator for registration, and the registration period is 5 years depending on the product category.
