Why SNI Certification is Important for Electric Fans
Although they appear simple, fans that do not meet safety standards can pose a significant risk. Fans are a very commonly used household electronic product in Indonesia. However, not all products are allowed to be freely distributed in the market. To ensure consumer safety, quality, and security, every electric fan must meet Indonesian National Standards (SNI). These regulations are set by the government and are a prerequisite before a product can be marketed, to ensure its safety and quality, and are a legal requirement for its distribution in the market.
SNI 7609:2011 regulates the safety, electrical performance, and noise levels of household electric fans, while SNI 7859:2013, namely SNI IEC 7859:2013, is a general safety requirement for household electrical appliances and similar devices, including fans in general, and serves as a broader reference standard.
SNI certification ensures that fans have passed safety tests, preventing risks such as electric shock or fire and guaranteeing reliable performance for consumers. The main function of SNI (Indonesian National Standards) is to ensure the quality, safety, and security of products or services circulating in the Indonesian market. SNI also plays a role in protecting consumers, increasing product competitiveness, and supporting economic growth.
