GEMS compliance mainly applies to products regulated for energy efficiency in the Australia and New Zealand markets. Common product groups may include air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, displays, lighting, or power-related products, but applicability should be confirmed by product category and current regulatory requirements.
Document Preparation Focus
| Item | Review Focus |
|---|---|
| Product scope | Confirm product category, function, ratings, and whether it falls within energy regulation scope. |
| Test standard | Confirm energy consumption, performance, standby power, or other applicable test items by product category. |
| Registration documents | Prepare test reports, model information, brand details, importer, or registrant information. |
| Label information | Check consistency among energy label, instructions, packaging display, and platform listing information. |
| Change control | Evaluate the impact of compressor, power supply, control board, light source, software, or key component changes. |
Report and Registration Boundary
GEMS test reports and registration documents should match the specific model, structure, energy parameters, and standard version. Model extension, key component changes, energy label updates, or target-market changes may require further review.
Green Ark Recommendation
Green Ark (Shenzhen) Certification Co., Ltd. recommends confirming whether the product is within GEMS scope before quotation and sample submission, while also checking RCM, electrical safety, wireless, or other parallel requirements. For model series, a difference table should be prepared early to keep registration documents aligned with sales models.
