  KAN BSN actively participates in Asia-Pacific
  Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC),
  International Laboratory Accreditation Conference
  (ILAC), Asia Pacific Metrology Programme (APMP),
  International Accreditation Forum (IAF), Pacific
  Accreditation Cooperation (PAC), etc

  laboratories are verified based on ISO/IEC 17025
  
• Testing is voluntary, except for product that has
  to comply with mandatory standards, it becomes
  mandatory
  
• How long testing has been required depends on the
  standards.
  
• For example for PVC low-voltage cables about 3
  weeks for lampsabout 1 month up to 7 weeks,
  depends on requirements
  

14
Testing (cont.)

• For electrical product, testing is carried out by
  random sample
  
• For type test samples from manufacturer
• For sample test samples from purchaser or
  manufacturer
  
• Production line testing or routine test is
  carried out by manufacturer

15
Testing (cont.)

• Manufacturer selects sample for type testing
• Who chooses the standard?
• Manufacturer, or
• Purchaser

16
Product certification

• Introduction
• KAN Product Certification Scheme is a national
  system for product certification. Manufacturers
  whose product are certified under this Scheme are
  awarded licenses for the use of Indonesia Quality
  Mark SNI mark. Certificate of product using SNI
  mark is granted by accredited product
  certification body to the company which fulfilled
  the KAN requirements and after systematic
  inspection and surveillance. In case that
  accredited product certification body is not
  available yet, the product certification body
  will be appointed.
• Under the Scheme the license is awarded if
• The product complies with SNI
• The factory has a quality system that complies
  with the KAN product certification requirements

17
Product certification (cont.)

• Who certifies product?
• At present the Industrial Standardization Center,
  Agency for Industrial Research and Development,
  Ministry of Industry and Trade (government) is
  appointed to act as the product certification
  body
• On-going process, the third party accredited
  product certification body which is accredited
  by KAN based on ISO/IEC Guide 65, will certify
  product

18
Product certification (cont.)

• Process used to certify products Provision and
  Procedures for using SNI mark
  
• A company whose product belongs to mandatory SNI
  shall have certificate of using SNI mark and
  produces product in compliance with SNI and use
  certification mark on the products, packages,
  and/or label. A company whose product belongs to
  voluntary SNI may send application to get
  certificate of using SNI mark. Certificate of
  using SNI mark is awarded by accredited product
  certification body to the company after its
  quality system and product have been inspected
  and tested and satisfy the whole SNI
  requirements.

19
Product certification (cont.)

• Inspection of the Company Quality Management
  System
  
• A company send application to accredited quality
  system certification body to be certified

20
Product Certification (cont.)

• Sampling and Product Quality Testing
• Product sampling is carried out by accredited
  testing laboratory or accredited inspection body
  and product quality testing is carried out by
  accredited testing laboratory nearest to the
  company location. Product sampling personnel take
  the sample based on SNI provision and issue
  sampling report. The company sends the sample to
  testing laboratory to be tested. Testing
  laboratory conducts testing on the sample based
  on SNI provision and issues testing certificate

21
Product certification (cont,)

• Issuing Certificate of Using SNI Mark
• Written application to obtain certificate of
  using SNI mark is sent to Head of Agency for
  Industrial and Development (AIRD) through Head of
  Industrial Standardization Center (ISC). It shall
  include quality system certificate and testing
  certificate.
• Head of AIRD instructs Head of ISC to undertake
  inspection to the applicant and makes report on
  the inspection result and submits it to Head of
  AIRD.
• Within not latter than 14 days after complete
  application has been received, Head of AIRD
  issues certificate of using SNI mark
  
• On-going process, issuing certificate of using
  SNI mark is processed by third party which is
  accredited by KAN (accredited product
  certification body)

22
Product certification (cont.)

• Publication
• A company which has been granted certificate of
  using SNI mark has the rights to publish and use
  SNI mark on product, packages, and/or label,
  within the scope of the certificate of using SNI
  mark only

23
Product certification (cont.)

• All events are led to the current process
• Follow-up on production after initial
  certification
  
• Product certification body carries out
  surveillance at least once per year
  
• Samples are taken directly from the market
• By sample test or new type test, depends on how
  many times the company could pass the
  surveillance and could comply with requirements
  of the product

24
Product certification (cont.)

• Who chooses standard used for certification?
• Manufacturer
• Are testing and certification by the same
  organization?
  
• No, testing is carried out by accredited
  laboratory, but product certification is carried
  out by accredited product certification body
  

25
Case study

• Lamps
• Applicable standard
• SNI 04-3560-1994, adopted from IEC standard
  (mandatory standard)
  
• Testing required
• Appearance
• Dimension
• Torsion moment
• Insulation resistance
• Power of rated voltage
• Life of lamp
• Intensity of light

26
Case study (cont.)

• Lamps (cont.)
• Testing were carried out by accredited
  laboratories
  
• Pusat Pengujian Mutu Barang, Deperindag (Center
  for Product Quality Testing, Ministry of Industry
  and Trade)
  
• Laboratorium Penguji Listrik, PLN (Electrical
  Testing Laboratory, State Electric Company)
  

27
Case study (cont.)

• Lamps (cont.)
• Certification
• Product certification by Industrial
  Standardization Center, Agency for Industrial and
  Development, Ministry of Industry and Trade
  
• Impact the process has in the marketplace
• Quality of product is assured controlled
• People get product that have good quality

28
Expectations for the future

• Bi-lateral or multi-lateral agreements
• Both, by Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA)
• International schemes
• Because all of us are members of IEC-APSG (Asia
  Pacific Steering Group) and IEC-APRC (Asia
  Pacific Regional Center, regional office in
  Singapore), so we can discuss more detail about
  all aspect of standardization related to IEC in
  that forum
• Because Indonesia is a member of WTO and IEC, for
  future Indonesia will develop IECEE (IEC System
  for Conformity Testing and Certification of
  Electrical Equipment) CB Scheme (Mutual
  Recognition of test data between certification
  bodies Mutual recognition of test certificates
  for electrical equipment)
