Services Offered by JET
JET (Japan Electrical Safety & Environment Technology Laboratories)
was founded in 1963 as an authorized testing body designated by the
government of Japan based on the Electrical Appliance and Material
Control Law, taking over the testing services that the government had
conducted. Since then, JET has supported establishment of and
advancement in the safety of electrical equipment and facilities in Japan in
cooperation with manufacturers, importers, distributors and consumers.
Based on that achievement, JET is actively promoting its business in
product testing and inspection services, certification services, cooperation
with overseas authorit ies , and the quality management system
(ISO9001)registration services, and also contributes to environment
conservat ion through the environmental management system
(ISO14001)registration services. JET will continuously offer excellent
services that support your business, featuring the concept "JET, the
Leader in Safety and Environment in the 21st Century".
Taking a position as a third party, JET assesses the conformity with the standards and technical requirements of
electrical products and other kinds of products as well as their components and materials. JET also offer product
certification services with verification of the quality control systems at manufacturing factories.
JET’s certification mark, which constitutes the proof of conformity, has earned the trust of the marketplace.
Conformity assessment based on the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law (PSE) As a Registered conformity assessment body under the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law,
JET assesses “Specified Electrical Appliances and Materials.”
By any of the two systems of technical requirements, namely so-called “Ministerial Ordinance
Paragraph 1”, Japanese original ones which have been applied in Japan for many years, and so-called
“Ministerial Ordinance Paragraph 2”, ones based on the IEC standards, JET can carry out conformity
assessment of any Electrical Appliances according to individual clients’ request.
S-JET certification services This service consists in carrying out tests, inspections and certification on the basis of the contract
which has been signed with the individual client. JET carries out the safety testing of electrical
appliances and the inspection of management system at the manufacturing factories, and also the
follow-up inspections at the prescribed intervals.
Clients whose products and management system are in compliance with the requirements can affix to
their products JET’s certification mark as evidence of compliance, and this contributes to increasing the
degree of the trust which the distributors, consumers and other parties have in those products. By
acquiring S-JET certification, enhanced safety of the products can be clearly expressed beyond
conformity to the technical requirements, which manufacturers and importers are obliged to secure
under the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law.
Testing and registration of components and materials used in electrical appliances (CMJ registration system) This is a service in which, based on a contract which has been signed with the individual client, JET
tests and registers the components and materials ahead of the production of the electrical appliances
using them, in order to certify electrical appliances economically and efficiently.
Since components and materials are subject to destructive, long-term and other testing, this service
gives the product manufacturers the advantage by using components and materials that have already
been tested and registered.
Furthermore, the registered components and materials are registered with the Council for Electrical
& Electronic Components and Materials of Japan (CMJ). The results yielded by the tests on the
components and materials registered with CMJ can also be utilized by test laboratories in Japan other than JET, so
the extent to which these items can be used is increased. (JET will coordinate its activities with other test
laboratories on an applicant’s request.)
Other testing, inspection and certification services In addition to the services already mentioned, JET also offers other services such as the certification of
circuit-breakers in the home, conformity assessment based on the Consumer Products Safety Law (PSC), certification
based on the Industrial Standardization Law (JIS Mark Certifiation), certification of water supply appliances based on
the Waterworks Law and the certification of medical equipment based on the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law.
In addition to the product testing and certification services such as the S-JET certification services and conformity
assessment services based on the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law, JET also offers various other
services (commissioned tests) which meet the needs of individual clients.
“Commissioned test” is carried out from the neutral and impartial perspective of a third party for the purpose of
contributing to improvements in the safety and quality of the electrical appliances and materials that are handled by
JET’s clients.
・Radio noise (electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)) measurements
・Electromagnetic field (EMF) measurements
・Tests based on the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law
・Tests relating to insulating materials
・Tests on ingress protection against dust and water
・Optical measurements (LEDs, fluorescent lights, bulbs, etc.)
JET is also adopting a proactive approach to providing certification services that support the
utilization of alternative energy sources including photovoltaic power generation and fuel cell power.
・Certification services for solar cell modules (JETPVm certification)
・Certification services for protection facilities with grid connected operation for small
distributed power generation systems
・Calibration of secondary reference solar cell modules
・Measurement of performance of solar cell modules used for comparison measurements
Based on cooperation with overseas certification bodies, JET offers a range of services to assist Japanese and
overseas businesses in getting certification overseas and in Japan respectively. Furthermore, taking part in the
IECEE-CB system, JET issues Test Reports with CB Test Certificates. Using its deep reserves of experience and an
information network founded on cooperation with the certification bodies in various countries around the world, JET
is available for consultation on such matters as the specific details of foreign regulation, certification procedures and
applicable standards.
Third-party evaluation of a business’s system for management of quality control, environment
protection and occupational health and safety leads to enhance its image and gives one of bases of
judgment in consumers’ selection of products and services. Besides offering high-quality
certification services based on the ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, ISO27001, ISO50001 and
other standards, JET also carries out audits and certification according to the needs of individual
businesses.

Overview of S-JET Certification
A report entitled “What the appropriate system to secure the safety of electrical
appliances should be in future” was worked out under the Electrical Appliances Safety
Review Committee (advisory committee of the Public Utilities Department Director of the
Ministry of International Trade and Industry) in October 1994.
It set forth the action program relating to third-party certification systems and to a review
of the laws and regulations involved.
Based on this action program, Steering Council of Safety Certification for Electrical and
Electronic Appliances and Parts of Japan (SCEA)*, then the only one for deliberations on a
third-party certification system in Japan, was inaugurated in December 1994.
Detailed explanations to businesses made progress, thus operations for accepting applications for S-JET
certification services were officially commenced in February 1995.
※ The Steering Council of Safety Certification for Electrical and Electronic Appliances and Parts of Japan (SCEA)
which is consisted (as of February 2011) of 47 groups including manufacturers’ organizations, distributers’
organizations, consumer groups and certification bodies as well as academics and experts, was inaugurated with a
view to contributing to improvements in the safety of electrical appliances and the diffusion of the mark.
The mark signifies that the conformity of the product to the prescribed requirements has been verified by JET
objectively and impartially in addition to self-confirmation of conformity carried out by its manufacturer.
・The safety and quality of the products can be ensured on the higher level with JET’s presence with the
manufacturers.
・S-JET certification mark gives consumers a feeling of trust in the safety of the products by evidencing the fact
that their conformity to the requirements have been verified by JET (a third-party certification body).
S-JET certification is granted on a product model-by-model basis. The products are certified when their conformity
to the requirements is verified and the quality management system, the testing on conformity to the requirements,
and other factors at the factory (or factories) where they are manufactured are confirmed to be appropriate.
Several models can be listed together as ones of the same series (model group) in one Certificate.

What is the S-JET certification mark?
What are the advantages of acquiring S-JET certification?
On what basis is S-JET certification granted?
Flow of S-JET certification steps① Application for certification1）Certification applicant (who qualifies as an applicant)
According to the Electrical Appliance and Material
Safety Law, it is the domestic manufacturers and
importers that are obliged to provide notification, that
is, be the notifying suppliers. However, according to
t h e S - JET c e r t i f i c a t i o n , b e s i d e s d omes t i c
manufacturers and importers, it is also possible for
overseas enterprises and marketing enterprises to
acquire certification.
2）What items are subject to certification?
In addition to the items covered by the Electrical
Appliance and Material Safety Law, equipment using
low-voltage power supplies (under 100V) and batteries
as the power supplies as well as the parts used in
electrical products are subject to certification.
Certification is granted on a model-by-model basis.
3）Contract
When applicants first file an application for S-JET
certification, they are asked to sign a contract
covering the usage of the mark.
② Product testing (what are the applicable test standards?) The technical standards of the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law (by Cabinet Order paragraph 1 or
Cabinet Order paragraph 2) are applicable as the test standards for products subject to the Electrical Appliance and
Material Safety Law. However, for the sake of proactively ensuring the safety of electrical products, additional
standards have been adopted specifically for the certification procedure.
Furthermore, the JIS, IEC and other safety standards in the public domain are applied to products which are not
subject to the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law.
③ Initial factory inspection, ⑦ Periodic (follow-up) factory inspection (how often it is implemented) There are two kinds of factory inspection: Initial factory inspection performed to verify that a system which is
capable of manufacturing the products to be certified with a uniform quality is in place and is capable of doing so
stably; and periodic factory inspection (implemented once a year) which follows up the findings of the initial factory
inspection.
Factory inspection is undertaken for each product category (product group) as established by JET at all the
factories where the products to be certified are manufactured.
④ Registration of certification (how the registration is disclosed) Products found to be in conformity by the product testing and initial factory inspection are certified and
registered. Details of the registration are disclosed publicly in the form of a certification list on JET’s website.
⑤ Certification mark display, ⑥ Initial Product inspection In cases such as where application has been received for the first time, an initial Product inspection is
performed.
The certification mark, which consists of the mark and logo of the certification body, are affixed to the
certified products, and these products are then shipped.

Services for Measuring LED Lighting and Other Illuminations Commissioned Test Services
10 11
In addition to our existing services for measuring the total luminous flux, color temperature and other
characteristics of incandescent bulbs, fluorescent lamps and compact self-ballasted fluorescent lamps, now we offer a
new service for measuring various light sources including LED light sources (bulb-shaped and straight-tube lamps)
whose use is experiencing rapid growth.
The objective evaluation of the performance and energy-saving performance of LED light sources has won high
praise from our clients because of the significant advantages such evaluation offers for developing new business
possibilities.
We can measure various types of lighting sources, using the testing facilities we have at Research and Business
Development Center, such as a 1-meter integrating sphere for the measurement of small-sized light sources of LED
Devices, a 2-meter integrating sphere applicable to bulb-shaped LED lamps and straight-tube LED lamps the length
of which corresponds to straight-tube 40W fluorescent lamps, and a goniophotometer, with which the distribution of a
LED light source 1.5 meters long can be measured.
① Services of Measuring of Various Lighting Sources such as LED
・Measurement of total luminous flux, color temperature, spectral distribution, light-source color, general color
rendering index, distribution of luminous intensity, illuminance right under the light source with illuminometer,
and ultraviolet rays
・Measurement of the energy consumption efficiency of light sources
② Major standard supported

In addition to LED lighting and other lighting test services, JET prepares special test equipment for use in testing
based on the technical standards of the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law and on JIS and IEC standards,
in order to meet clients’ varied needs. For example, test requests related to LED lighting are introduced.
① Radio noise (electromagnetic compatibility) measurement operation
Our EMC Test Center, which is registered as a CB test laboratory and located inside our Yokohama business
facility that has been certified as an ISO/IEC17025 test laboratory by VLAC, has many facilities, including a 10 m
semi-anechoic chamber with water supply/discharge and air exhaust facilities, a 3 m semi-anechoic chamber, an
anechoic chamber for radiated electromagnetic wave immunity testing, and a shielded room (for FCC, VCCI, CNAS
and other tests and registration). This is where we measure EMC (EMI, EMS) in compliance with domestic and
overseas standards, and where tests witnessed by the clients are also undertaken. Furthermore, facilities to carry out
safety tests are in place on the same premises, so JET can offer the benefits of one-stop testing for both EMC tests
and product safety tests. Both Tokyo and Kansai laboratories have shielded rooms where EMI measurements are
carried out.
② Electromagnetic field (EMF) measurement operation
Measurements of electromagnetic fields (low-frequency electromagnetic fields) based on the IEC62233 standard
(Measurement methods for electromagnetic fields of household appliances and similar apparatus with regard to
human exposure) are carried out by JET, thereby assessment of conformity to the Low Voltage Directive for CE
marking can also be supported.
③ Evaluation of dust-proofing, water-proofing, etc.
Electrical products used outdoors must be water-proofed since water may find its way inside them.
Similarly, a dust-proof performance is required for products used in very dusty environments.
In order to assess the features of such products, we carry out tests to evaluate the dust-proofing and
water-proofing of the enclosures of electrical products in compliance with the JIS C0920 standard (Degrees of
protection provided by enclosures (IP Code)).
