The 58 categories of products sold in California, the United States need to do CEC product energy efficiency certification, mainly for home appliances, power supplies, lamps (ballasts or energy-saving lamps). The regulation is divided into energy efficiency index requirements, measurement methods and a phased implementation plan. As the largest state in the United States, California has stricter requirements for energy efficiency. The California Energy Efficiency Regulations for Electric Appliances implemented by the California CEC Energy Commission since 1976 are mandatory energy conservation regulations in the United States that can affect non-consumption behaviors. consumption plays an important role.
