Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard applies to electrical and electronic products produced, sold, or imported within China, specifically those with a rated DC voltage not exceeding 1500V and AC voltage not exceeding 1000V. It is mandatory for all manufacturers and importers placing EEE products on the Chinese market, excluding equipment for power generation, transmission, and distribution. It categorizes products into those included in the compliance management catalogue and those that are not.

Requisitos técnicos

GB 26572-2025 specifies the limit requirements for hazardous substances in homogeneous materials of EEE products. It regulates a specific list of restricted substances, including heavy metals like Lead (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd), as well as certain flame retardants and phthalates. Products listed in the compliance management catalogue must strictly adhere to these maximum concentration limits. The standard introduces a two-tier classification system. Category I products (those in the catalogue) must comply with both substance limits and labeling requirements, while Category II products must comply with labeling provisions. Manufacturers must ensure proper categorization to determine applicable compliance tiers. It mandates specific labeling requirements using designated marks. Mark I indicates compliance with substance limits, while Mark II is used when limits are exceeded, requiring the disclosure of an environment-friendly use period. Products must also include a detailed hazardous substance information table in the product manual.

Métodos de ensayo

Testing for restricted substances must be conducted according to the GB/T 39560 series standards. The standard defines three categories of test units (EEP-A, EEP-B, EEP-C) based on the degree of disassembly into homogeneous materials. Compliance is determined by testing these disassembled units against the specified limit thresholds.
