JAS-ANZ is currently developing a set of harmonized requirements for electrical equipment certification.  The Electrical Equipment Safety Certification (EESC) Scheme is currently being developed by a Technical Committee representing Australian and New Zealand stakeholders in this sector. The new scheme is a type test scheme aimed at being a harmonized set of requirements to replace the existing 9 schemes owned by certification bodies operating in this space.

Due to the advanced stage of this initiative, JAS-ANZ will no longer be accepting scheme endorsement applications from scheme owners for existing schemes in this sector. This is effective from 8 September 2021.
