New CCC Certification Standards for Wire Feeding Devices and Welding Torches

26. September 2024

The recently released GB standards, GB/T 15579.5-2023 “Arc Welding Equipment – Part 5: Wire Feeding Devices” and GB/T 15579.7-2023 “Arc Welding Equipment – Part 7: Welding Torch (Gun),” have replaced their 2013 counterparts as the basis for certifying wire feeding devices and welding torches (guns) in China. These new standards, effective immediately,  are crucial for products seeking CCC certification in order to be approved for import and distribution in China.Key changes include revisions to the certification rule number, updated reference standards, narrowed certification scope, and adjustments in product descriptions. Products previously categorized under 006014 must now adhere to Type II certification rules.

Enterprises holding certificates under the old standards must apply for conversion to meet the new requirements. Applications for certificate conversion should be completed by November 1, 2025, and any certificates not converted by December 31, 2025, will be revoked. Conversion applications must align with the GB/T 15579.1-2024 revision. Testing bodies are required to confirm their ability to test under the new standards promptly.
