0 Introduction
This Rule is established based on the safety risk and certification risk of electric bikes.
It stipulates the basic principles and requirements for the implementation of China
Compulsory Certification for electric bikes.
This Rule can be used with other general rules, which are issued by Certification and
Accreditation Administration (CNCA), such as “China Compulsory Certification
Implementation Rules - Manufacturer Classification Management, Certification Mode
Selection and Determination”, “China Compulsory Certification Implementation Rules
- Utilization of Manufacturer Test Resource and Other Certification Results”, “China
Compulsory Certification Implementation Rules - Factory Inspection General
Requirements”.
Certification agency shall compile the implementation detailed-rules for certification of
electric bikes, according to the requirements of the general implementation rules and
this Rules; shall implement them with the general implementation rules and this Rules.
1 Scope of application
This Rule applies to two-wheeled bikes, that use on-board batteries as auxiliary energy,
have pedal riding capabilities, can realize electric assist and/or electric drive functions.
Due to the changes in the laws, regulations or related product standards, technology,
industry policies and other causes which may change the applicable scope, the
announcement released by the State Administration for Market Regulation (CNCA)
shall be final and conclusive.
2 Standards for certification
The standards for the certification of this Rule are as shown in Appendix 1 “Standards
for certification and type test items".
In principle, the standards used for certification shall be the latest versions, which are
issued by the National Standardization Administration. When it is necessary to use other
versions of the standards, it shall be executed, according to the applicable relevant
standards issued by the CNCA.
3 Certification modes
The basic certification model for implementing compulsory product certification for
electric bikes is:
Type test + Enterprise quality assurance capability and product consistency inspection
(initial factory inspection) + Post-certification supervision.
Post-certification supervision refers to one or various combinations of three methods:
follow-up inspection after certification, sample testing or inspection at the production
site, market sampling testing or inspection.
Certification agency shall, in accordance with requirements of “China Compulsory
Certification Implementation Rules - Manufacturer Classification Management,
Certification Mode Selection and Determination”, implement classification
management of manufacturers. In combination with classification management results,
it shall combine the various modes of post-certification supervision, so as to determine
the certification mode suitable for certification client.
4 Division of certification units
In principle, electric bikes with similar frames, front forks, structural types, same drive
methods, battery types are one certification unit.
The same product, which is produced by the same producer and different manufacturers,
OR the same product, which is produced by different producers and the same
manufacturer, can be divided into the same certification unit.
The certification agency may appropriately relax the classification of certification units
for manufacturers with classified management level A. The certification agency shall
clarify the specific requirements for the division of certification units, in the
certification implementation detailed rules.
5 Certification entrustment
5.1 Proposal and acceptance of certification entrustment
The certification client needs to submit the certification entrustment to the certification
agency in an appropriate manner. The certification agency shall handle the certification
entrustment; provide feedback on acceptance or rejection, in accordance with the time
limit requirements in the certification implementation detailed rules.
If the requirements of national laws, regulations, relevant industrial policies are not met,
the certification agency shall not accept relevant certification entrustments.
5.2 Entrusted information
Certification agencies shall specify an entrustment data list in the certification
The certification agency shall clarify the relevant requirements for sample
delivery/sampling of certified products, in the certification implementation detailed
rules. Usually, the certification client prepares samples according to the requirements
of the type test plan and sends them to the designated laboratory. When necessary, the
certification agency may also obtain samples, through on-site sampling/sealing.
The certification client shall ensure that the samples provided are consistent with the
actual products produced. The certification agency and/or laboratory shall check the
authenticity of the samples, which are provided by the certification client. If the
laboratory has doubts about the authenticity of the sample, it shall explain the situation
to the certification agency and handle it accordingly.
6.1.3 Type test items
The type test items shall be the test items, which are specified in GB 17761 "Safety
technical specification for electric bicycle", GB 42295 "Safety requirements for electric
bicycles electrical", GB 42296 "Safety technical requirements of charger for electric
bicycles". The certification agency shall work with the laboratory, to confirm the test
items in accordance with the provisions of this Rule and the structure and technical
par...
