Lamps new GB implementation of six months and inferior products flooding the market still

Since January 1 this year, the lamps mandatory national standard GB7000.1-2007 lamps general safety requirements and test, "began the formal implementation.

Compared to the old GB, GB on safety requirements for a number of major adjustments, one of the most significant difference is the poor security 0-type lamps

officially deleted. However, despite the new standards have been implemented more than six months, have found that the reporter interviewed a lot of low

level of security lighting is still glamorous in some Dengju.

0 type lamps are still visible traces of

Lamps supermarket in a medium-sized building materials, the reporter saw a large number of floor lamps, bracket lamps, table lamps, such as two-phase plug

without a ground wire household lamps are still selling products, most of which lamps do not have security signs. 'Selection of lamps are generally pick the

style, than the price, have not heard of the level of security to say, the sales staff did not introduce, naturally, we do not know. 'Most consumers are

asked whether they know the lamp safety standards, and did not know. Consumers, since it does not meet the standard, should not be listed, otherwise it

difficult for consumers to clearly understand a variety of products there are numerous standards and regulations.

If the lighting level of security without the knowledge of the industry because consumers are not yet can understand, then, the sales staff is indifferent to

the safety performance of the goods sold is somewhat contrary to human expectations: 'security classification level? Unclear. However, our lamps are

qualified products is absolutely impossible to even use the security can not guarantee. 'Although the sales staff the words Zaozao But when asked what

belongs to several types of lamps, many people know why answer the question, but stressed that the certificate can not have security risks. According to

reporter understanding, this situation in a lot of lighting shopping malls are quite common, most of the sellers and consumers knew almost nothing about the

lamps security classification registration.

Production and sales of manufacturers of illegal operations

In fact, the lamps security classification standard is not complicated, the China Association of Lighting Industry experts told reporters that the lighting

level of security is divided into four levels: 0 type lamps, class Ⅰ lamps class II lamps, Class Ⅲ lamps. Among them, the lowest security level 0 type

lamps, rely on basic insulation as a protection against electric shock, that is, the type lamps did not take ground measures, once the wire breakage or short

circuit, it will cause the lamps of the metal shell of charged, is likely to endanger the personal safety of users. For this reason, in the EU, these lamps

back in 2003 would have been forced to withdraw from the market in China in 2008 to develop the new version of "lighting the general requirements and

experiment", but also the formal requirements from 1 January 2009 the date may not reproduce type lamps.

Why banned products still sold in the market? Manufacturers manufacturers 'difficulties'. A manufacturer told reporters that since the end of last year by

the international financial crisis has not optimistic, lighting sales, and if the production and inventory of products in accordance with the new standard to

replace, will inevitably lead to increased costs, corporate The survival Shangqie difficulties, there is no energy and money in product technological

transformation. Some businesses told reporters, 1.5 m with ordinary switch three-phase plug wire is more expensive than the two-phase plug line 3 yuan to

five yuan, lower total lighting an expenditure clearly have to consider. In addition, the manufacturer said that not many customers to be sufficient

attention to this standard, the use of type lamps examples of security incidents, and not common. It is with this to cope with and psychological luck, many

manufacturers can drag, drag, illegal production of non-compliant lighting.

For dealers, the reason it seems more 'full': in accordance with the provisions of, from January 1, 2009 shall not reproduce type lamps, but before that date

products allow to continue to sell in the market. It is this as an excuse, many dealers have been boldly sales type lamps. Due to price difference, but many

consumers are unaware of many dealers still continue to sell products sold before the qualified date, manufacturers in the limit after the date of the

illegal production of 0-type lamps.

Experts advise: Note the distinction between the lighting level of security

For this phenomenon, the experts said, of the National Electric Light Source Quality Supervision and Inspection Center 0-type lamps delisting is the trend,

after a transitional period of six months to a year after the regulation will be more stringent. 0 lighting manufacturers should take early decision-making,

the fixtures will be changed to Class I, Class II lighting and restart production. Expert Tip: In this process, attention should be given to lighting the

basic insulation of the external components (such as lampholders, terminals Block), verify that the structure of these components to meet the relevant

requirements of additional insulation or reinforced insulation. Also, note that the class changed class I should be re-verified lamp electromagnetic

compatibility compliance, structural improvements completed, the certified products should apply for renewal.

China Association of Lighting and the Beijing Consumers' Association are jointly prompted consumers must pay attention to when buying lamps to view the

lighting logo. According to reports, the 0-class lighting wire is generally only a layer of rubber, peel the rubber can be seen inside the copper wire, wire

plug is the two-headed, grounded port. Lamps, floor lamps home lighting may move location from time to time, if the wire surface of the rubber aging or

damaged, could easily cause an electric shock safety hazard. Although the type lamps are mostly in the form of two-phase plug, however, the two-phase plug

lamp is not necessarily the type lamps, if a consumer to distinguish, it is necessary to focus the lighting category labels Ⅰ type lamps will be ground

signs; II type lamps there will be 'back' symbol; Ⅲ type lamps are marked with a diamond-shaped blocks within the Roman numeral III.

In addition, the experts said, if the consumer has to buy or are using the type lamps, paying particular attention to safety when in use, in a timely manner

to check the security status of the lamps, can also be modified to improve safety factor for the existing type lamps, such as the wall lamps, ceiling lamps

connected to the ground, will put on the wire sheathed cable; lamps of the fluorescent lamp, grid lamps, downlights, metal casing, the metal shell connected

to the grounding line, change the wire to sheath line converted to Class I lighting can significantly reduce the risk of electric shock.
