The Japanese laws about product safety will change from T-mark to PSE-mark, effective from April 1st, 2001.
As for AC Adapters that already have T-Mark approval, there is a 5 year period for which they can continue to be sold OR to the point when their T-Mark license expires. Power Cords and AC Adapters are Class A products under the new scheme and as such the T-Mark will be replaced with the following PSE logo. <<Japan PSE SpecificA.gif>> Anderson Cheng > -----原始郵件----- > 寄件者: [email protected] [SMTP:[email protected]] > 傳送時間: 2001年3月14日 PM 09:37 > 收件者: [email protected] > 主旨: RE: ITE/Telecom Equipment for Japan > > Under the current regulations, EMC approval (VCCI) is voluntary and the > only > ITE that requires safety approval is AC adapters (the "T" mark).
