Under the provisions of Rule 97 (1) of the Electricity Regulations 1994, it is the responsibility of the manufacturers and importers of electrical equipment to obtain the Certificate of Approval (COA) from the Energy Commission (EC) for electrical equipment to be manufactured or imported before they can be sold in the market. EC has until now, mandated a total of 31 categories of electrical equipment which require the Certificate of Approval. In order to enhance the safety of electrical equipment which are increasingly in demand in the market, the EC has revised and added another three (3) new categories and a few equipment under existing categories which require the Certificate of Approval. The new list of 34 categories of regulated electrical equipment is given in Appendix A. |
