Proposal for Legal Inspection of Laser Pointers (2 page(s), in English; 1 page(s), in Chinese)
Laser pointers are frequently used as aiming devices in public events. However, high-power laser pointers may pose hazards to consumers when they are misused. With a view to protecting the health and safety of the public, the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection proposes to regulate laser pointers classified under Class 2 as defined in CNS 15016-1 and require warning messages labelled on the product in accordance with CNS 15527. The conformity assessment procedure for such products will be Registration of Product Certification (RPC) or Type-Approved Batch Inspection (TABI).
