1. PSE certification
The PSE certification is a mandatory safety and EMC approval for electrical products sold on the Japanese market. The applicable law is the DENAN Act (Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Act) of Japan. The Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) is the responsible authority for the PSE Certification.
457 product categories have been designated pursuant to the DENAN act (as of December 2018). Under the Act, electrical products are divided into two categories: Specified Electrical Products (totally 116 products) and Non-Specified Electrical Products (totally 341 products). Specified Electrical Products must display the diamond PSE mark while Non-Specified Electrical Products must be marked with the circle PSE mark.
