The complete process and key requirements for EN62115 CE certification of electric toys, compiled in conjunction with the latest EU regulations:
I. Core Certification Process
1. Application and Document Submission
- Complete the application form (including product model and technical specifications)
- Provide product documentation: manual, circuit schematic, model difference list (required for multiple models), parts list (BOM)
- Ship 2-3 complete and functional test samples
2. Quotation and Agreement Signing
- After evaluating the documentation, the certification body will determine the test standards, fees, and turnaround time (typically 3-5 business days, longer for complex products).
- After confirming the quote, sign the service agreement and pay the fee.
3. Laboratory Testing Phase
- Electrical Safety Testing: Input Power, Temperature Rise, Electrical Strength (Operating Temperature/Room Temperature), Moisture Resistance
- Mechanical Safety Testing: Structural Strength (3 impacts with a 0.5J spring hammer), Accessible Parts Protection (Pinch/Sharp Edge Protection)
- Chemical Safety Testing: REACH Regulation (Phthalates ≤ 0.1%), EN71-3 Heavy Metal Migration (Lead ≤ 13.5 mg/kg)
- Special Items: Battery Abuse Testing (Crush/Punch/Overcharge), USB Interface Safety, LED Photobiological Safety Assessment (New in the 2020 Edition)
4. Report Review and Certificate Issuance
- A test report will be generated upon passing the test, and a CE certificate will be issued upon review.
- Failures will require corrections and retesting.
II. Key Test Items (EN62115 Core Requirements)
| Test Category | Specific Items
| Electrical Safety | Input Power, Heat Generation and Abnormal Operation, Electrical Strength (Hipot Test), Leakage Current (≤ 0.5 mA)
| Mechanical Safety | Drop Test (85 cm Height × 3 Times), Moving Parts Protection, Casing Mechanical Strength
| Chemical Safety | Phthalates (6P), Heavy Metal Migration (EN71-3), Flame Retardant Material Test (Glow Wire 550°C)
| Labels and Instructions | Battery Warning (Button/Coin Cell), Voltage Marking (≤24V), Age Warning Symbol
Note: Updated requirements for the 2020 version of EN62115 include:
Battery warning labels must be clear (e.g., "Hazard of Swallowing").
Adjustments to mechanical impact test parameters (impact force reduced from 0.7J to 0.5J).
Additional stability testing for electric ride-on toys.
III. Required Materials List
- Technical Documents: Circuit Schematic, Product Manual (including safety warnings), Bill of Materials (BOM).
- Sample Requirements: Completely functional, unopened samples, including packaging and accessories.
- Company Information: Business license, manufacturer and importer details.
IV. Common Problems and Pitfalls
1. Labeling Failures: Incorrect/Mislabeled voltage, age warning, or battery risk warning (highest incidence).
2. Structural Defects: Short circuits caused by battery compartment design (accounting for 30% of failures); insulation protection needs to be strengthened.
3. Chemical Exceedances: Phthalates in plastic components exceed standards. Pre-inspection of raw materials is recommended.
