In view of the growing prevalence of rechargeable hand-held tools and their increasing use by consumers, concerns have arisen regarding product safety due to the potential risks posed by substandard lithium batteries. Furthermore, updated safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards for hand-held electric tools have been officially promulgated. To ensure the electrical and lithium battery safety of these products and to safeguard consumer use, it is proposed that rechargeable hand-held electric tools be included within the scope of mandatory inspection, along with an update to the applicable inspection standards. The Conformity Assessment Procedures will remain unchanged.
