Hi group, Previous attempt to identify the Chinese requirement for 2.4 GHz wireless device, identifies GB-15629.1102, which turns out to be for DSSS (Direct Sequencing Spread Spectrum). Does anyone knows what will be the correct standard for FHSS? Thanks, N. Shani - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.

RE: Brazilian INMEtro requirements for power supplies
See below from Bureau Veritas – According to Decree 371, issued December 29, 2009, household and similar electric appliances (eg. kettles, irons, vacuum cleaners) to be sold in Brazil must be on the Compulsory INMETRO Certification List starting from July 1, 2011. Compulsory Certification falls under Brazilian System Conformity Assessment (SBAC) where the regulatory authority determines that the products sold in the country must have demonstrated compliance under Preservation of the Environment, Health, and Safety of Human or Animal Life. Article 3 of the Decree also establishes mandatory certification for household appliances, and requires testing to be performed by a Product Certification Body (OCP) that is accredited by INMETRO. Enforcement Schedule of Decree 371 The Ordinance came into force on the date of publication, and therefore, the household appliances are already subject to regulations for products traded in Brazil. The Decree has divided compliance into three stages to provide time for manufacturers and importers to adapt to the new requirements of IEC 60335-1and IEC 60335-2-x as described below: 1. From 1 July 2011, manufacturers and importers of equipment for use in the domestic market, must comply with the requirements. (applies to all new products) 2. From July 1, 2012, household electric appliances must be in compliance with the approved requirements in order to be sold in the national market. (It will be allowed for manufacturers and importers to sell all older products, without INMETRO certification but already in manufacturers’ and importers’ warehouses, for a period of one year.) 3. From 1 January 2013, in order to sell household electric appliances in the national market as mentioned above, they must be in compliance with the approved requirements. (This deadline is specifically for those old products, without INMETRO certification but already in the Brazilian market, to sell for an additional six months.) Products Mandatory under Decree 371 Products with this Regulation on Conformity Assessment (RAC) are those included within the scope of standards ABNT, NBR, NM, NM or IEC from the series 60335-2-x, except for products that are already included by other coverage under the Conformity Assessment of INMETRO, such as industrial cooking equipment, cleaning appliances for industrial and commercial usage, gardening equipment and beauty parlor appliances. Supplementary Decree 10 Released on January 25, 2010, Decree 10 supplements the regulations for trading appliances in Brazil. It covers changes made to the insulation classification of appliances. The class is determined by the amount of protection and safety against electrical shock to the user. The Ordinance prohibits the trading of electrical appliances Class 0 and Class 01 in Brazil, but allows time for manufacturers and importers to adapt their products.
