Telec (Telecom Engineering Center) is the abbreviation of Japan Telecommunications Engineering Center, which is the certification management body in charge of telecommunications terminal equipment in Japan, and is responsible for formulating and standardizing the technical requirements and certification procedures of telecommunication terminal equipment. Telec Certification is the main registered certification body for radio equipment conformity certification in Japan.
1. What is the certification of Telec?
Telec certification is a mandatory certification for wireless products in Japan, which is somewhat similar to the type approval certificate for radio transmission equipment in China. Its certification rigor is also very high, and the main certification frequency bands: certification of high-power radio transmission equipment with strong electromagnetic radiation, such as public mobile communication base stations, TV transmitters, cordless **, etc.
Second, the TELEC certification process cycle
1.Submit an application
The first step is to submit an application to Telec with technical specifications and samples. The application needs to provide the following information: company name, product name, model, technical specifications, samples, etc.
2.Review the application
Telec will review the application, including technical specifications and sample compliance. If your application is approved, Telec will let you know what to do next.
3.Test samples
TELEC will send the samples to the designated laboratory for testing, including electromagnetic radiation, electromagnetic immunity, etc. Samples need to comply with Japanese radio regulations and need to pass laboratory tests.
4.Issuance of certificates
If the sample test passes, Telec issues a certificate, which is valid for five years. If the test fails, Telec notifies the applicant of what needs to be improved and retakes the test.
5.Annual inspection and supervision
After obtaining the certificate, Telec also inspects and supervises the product to ensure the conformity and consistency of the product. If any issues are found, Telec may revoke the certificate.
In general, the telec certification process is more complex and the cycle is relatively long, generally taking about 1-3 months. Therefore, if you want to sell wireless products in Japan, you need to understand Japan's radio regulatory requirements and TELEC certification process in advance so that you can better arrange your production and sales plan.
