Dear Experts, I'm preparing an battery charger appliance product for eventual approvals in Korea, for the first time after the Jan 2012 Korean regulatory changes. We are obtaining a CB Test Report, and will utilize that document to apply for Korean approvals. I have heard information from a supplier that is contradictory to my understanding, but I'm having a difficult time confirming it. Our product has a mains input cable assembly that is approved by one of the ENEC group, to EN60320-2-2-1998. This is the correct version of the standard according to the OJ standards list, which also notes IEC EN60320-2-2-1998 as equivalent. In my experience, Korea has required approval to the IEC standard, by an accredited European test lab.
Our supplier is stating that Korean authorities will not accept approval to an IEC standard for this component, and will only accept specific Korean approval. Can anybody who has been involved with the 2012 Korean approvals process provide any feedback on this? Additionally, are approvals in Korea still performed one model at a time, regardless of how many models are included in a CB report? Are there any other new details that can delay or prevent an approval? Any help is much appreciated.
