The first thing to emphasize is that any cables and wires need to obtain national 3C certification. This is because cables and wires belong to the national compulsory safety certification products. All manufacturers of wires and cables need to obtain China's compulsory CCC certification. Only in this way can the quality of the products be regarded as national standard products.
Guangfo Electromechanical Hardware City is the largest hardware market in South China. Some businesses dealing with wires and cables sell cables of the same specification and two prices.
Some merchants explained that non-standard wires and cables are lower than the national standard, and the price is about 10% to 40% cheaper than the national standard. Among the dozens of businesses that operate wires and cables asked by the reporter, at least 30% are operating non-standard cables. These merchants also said that although they are all non-standard products, they have everything that the national standard should have, which can hide people's eyes and ears.
Where do these non-standard wires and cables come from?
There are many small wire and cable manufacturers in Mianhu Town, Jieyang City, Guangdong Province.
The reporter came to a factory called Shihai Cable, and the "discount line" being produced in the workshop. This cable should contain 32 copper wires according to the national standard, but the manufacturer only put 26 wires. In addition to making a fuss about the copper core of the wire and cable, some manufacturers will continue to discount the material of the outer skin.
The reporter visited a number of wire and cable manufacturers in Mianhu Town and found that many manufacturers are producing this kind of discount line. The reporter sent the three specifications of cables purchased from Shihai Cable to a professional experimental institution for testing. It was found that the resistance of the folded line all exceeded the national standard by more than 35%, which means that the power consumption is increased, and it is easy to generate heat. Security risks.
What kind of harm will these non-standard cables cause?
According to the electrical test of PVC insulated cable carried out according to the national standard, the standard requires no breakdown under 2500 volts for 5 minutes. And when the test started, in just a few seconds, the non-standard cable was broken down and sparked.
For products subject to compulsory product certification, the state unifies the mandatory requirements, standards and conformity assessment procedures of technical specifications, and includes them in the "Catalogue of Products Subject to Compulsory Product Certification". If the certification mark is not affixed in accordance with the regulations, it will not be allowed to leave the factory, import, sell or use in business service places.
Enterprises must not take chances. The country is very strict with CCC certification. Even if CCC certification has been obtained, once it is unqualified, the factory must be closed for rectification. In the event of an accident, the company will be held responsible.
