In the global market of plant growth lamps, countries have formulated a series of special technical requirements and test standards to ensure product safety, performance and environmental protection:

1. European Union

• CE certification: It is a mandatory requirement for plant growth lamps to enter the EU market, covering multiple directives and standards, including the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2014/35/EU and the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC) 2014/30/EU. Products must comply with the EN 60598 series of standards, such as EN 60598-1. It is also necessary to meet the electromagnetic compatibility standards EN 55015 and EN 61000 series. Products that have passed the CE certification are affixed with the CE mark, indicating that they meet the relevant EU requirements and can be freely circulated in the EU market.

• RoHS Directive: Restricts the use of hazardous substances in plant growth lamps, such as lead, mercury, cadmium, etc. Enterprises must ensure that the content of these hazardous substances in the product is below the specified limit to reduce the impact on the environment and human health.

• ERP directive: stipulates the energy efficiency requirements for plant growth lamps. Enterprises need to provide technical documents such as product energy efficiency labels and eco-design documents to prove that the products meet energy-saving and environmental protection requirements.

2. United States

• UL8800 certification: It is the safety certification standard for plant growth lamps in the United States. The test items include input test, temperature rise test, voltage resistance test, etc. Enterprises need to ensure that the product passes these tests to prove its reliability in electrical, mechanical and environmental aspects. When selling plant growth lamps on e-commerce platforms such as Amazon US, it is usually necessary to provide a UL8800 test report.

• DLC certification: It is the energy efficiency certification for plant growth lamps in the United States. The plant growth lamp V2.0 standard issued by DLC has clear requirements for the product's performance indicators such as light efficiency and spectrum. Products that pass the DLC certification can enjoy government subsidy policies in some states and regions of the United States, such as California and New York, which will help reduce the cost of using products and improve market competitiveness.

• FCC certification: It is the certification requirement formulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States for electromagnetic interference of electronic equipment. As an electronic device, plant growth lamps must comply with the relevant standards of the FCC to ensure that they will not cause harmful electromagnetic interference to surrounding electronic devices during use.

3. Other countries

Japan: Plant growth lamps must comply with Japan's Electrical Appliances and Materials Safety Law (PSE). Products must pass relevant tests and be affixed with the PSE mark to prove that they comply with Japan's safety standards. In addition, they must also meet Japan's electromagnetic compatibility standards and other relevant requirements.

Australia and New Zealand: Plant growth lamps are required to comply with their common standards and regulations, such as AS/NZS 60598.1. Products must pass corresponding tests to ensure safety and reliability in the Australian and New Zealand markets.

Countries have formulated strict special technical requirements and testing standards for plant growth lamps. Companies need to ensure that their products meet relevant standards according to the requirements of the target market in order to successfully enter the market and gain consumer recognition.
