BIS Certification For Safety of Electric Toys - IS 15644

Introduction

Electric toys enable imaginative and engaging play through lighting, sound, and motion features. However, the electrical components can pose safety hazards like electric shocks and burns if quality norms are not adhered to. To regulate the safety of electric toys sold in India, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has introduced IS 15644 certification. This article outlines the key tests and how to leverage EVTL India's expertise for certification.

MANDATORY TESTING

• High voltage and insulation resistance tests

• Circuit stability assessment under varying voltages

• Tension, torque, and drop tests for wires and plug pins

• Evaluation of protection against accessible live parts

• Mechanical strength testing for wheels and rotors

• Cylinder gauge tests for ingestion of small parts

• Laboratory analysis to ensure compliance with chemical requirements

• Assessment of potential hazards such as heat buildup, vibration, and noise
