The Argentine government adopted two new resolutions: 197/2004 and 198/2004. Resolution 197/2004 allows manufacturers and importers to choose different certification systems. Resolution 197/2004 applies to the following products: electronic and electrical products, toys, and personal protection equipment (PPE).

• S-Mark Certification: applies mainly to household and lighting equipment/components (including LED’s), connectors, fuses, circuit breakers and similar devices.
• S-Type Certification: scheme most commonly utilized for certification of ITE and similar electrical/electronic devices.
• Lot Approval: most suited to one-time /low volume shipments of electrical/electronic devices.

Resolution 198/2004 has mandatory certification requirements for some electrical and electronic products, while resolution 198/2004 stipulates that the following products are no longer included in the scope of mandatory certification:

• Products with rated current greater than 63A;
• Products with rated voltage less than 50V, powered by battery;
• Products with rated voltage less than 50V, powered by external power supply (including battery).
