IS 302 Part 1: 2024 is an Indian standard describing the safety requirements of water-bed heaters, which have applications in all types of households and commercially managed setups under BIS Certification. A water-bed heater is a device that provides comfort and relaxation by heating water in special beds. As interest increases on bedding innovation, demand for water-bed heaters is increasing. In India, these products carry the ISI mark and are certified for safety as well as quality standards by the Bureau of Indian Standards, or BIS. To sell or import a water-bed heater, the companies cannot ignore the order of QCO but obtain BIS certification with the appropriate fees.
For proper import and export of water-bed heaters, knowledge of BIS custom clearance procedures is required. The essence of getting a license from BIS is an important criterion that does legitimate business in India. They offer online services through which the application process has been streamlined for the acquisition of BIS certification along with the ISI mark.
OVERVIEW
IS 302: Part 1:2024 covers household electrical appliances, including water-bed heaters, of 250 V single-phase and other types at 415 V. The standard also covers equipment used in shops and light industries that could cause potential hazards. Even though it deals with most ordinary safety hazards, it does not include the dangers of their use when left unattended by a young child. Industrial tools, medical equipment, and other equivalent electronic gadgets are not covered under the purview. Additional special requirements may be required for those appliances to be used in a vehicle or ship.
