China CCC Power Cord Introduction

The GB 2099 standard, equivalent to IEC 60884-1, governs plugs and socket-outlets for household and similar purposes in China. All power cords sold in the Chinese market must carry the CCC (China Compulsory Certification) mark, commonly known as the 3C certification. Zhejiang Jinting Nuclear Cable Co., Ltd. holds CCC certification for a comprehensive range of power cord products, ensuring full compliance with Chinese regulatory requirements.

Chinese Plug Types and Specifications

China uses several plug configurations under the GB 2099 standard. The most common is the 3-pin plug with two flat angled pins and one vertical flat earth pin (similar to the Australian configuration but with reversed polarity). The standard 2-pin plug features two flat parallel pins without grounding (used for Class II appliances). There is also a 2-pin plug with two flat angled pins for specific applications. All configurations are rated for 250V AC with current ratings of 10A or 16A.

Plug Type	Pins	Rating	Applications
3-pin (10A)	2 angled flat + 1 vertical flat earth	10A 250V	Computers, household appliances
3-pin (16A)	Larger pins	16A 250V	Air conditioners, high-power equipment
2-pin flat	2 parallel flat pins	10A 250V	Class II small appliances

CCC Certification Process

The CCC certification process involves several stages. First, the application is submitted to a designated certification body such as CQC (China Quality Certification Centre). Then factory audit and sample testing are conducted in CNAS-accredited laboratories. After the technical review is approved, the CCC certificate is issued. Finally, there is an annual follow-up factory inspection to maintain certification validity. Zhejiang Jinting Nuclear Cable Co., Ltd. maintains active CCC certification with successful annual surveillance audits, demonstrating our sustained commitment to quality and compliance.

Cable Specifications for CCC Power Cords

CCC-certified power cords use cables that comply with relevant Chinese national standards. Common cable types include 60227 IEC 53 (RVV) for PVC-insulated flexible cords rated 300/500V, 60227 IEC 52 (RVV) for light-duty PVC flexible cords rated 300/300V, 60245 IEC 53 (YZ) for ordinary duty rubber-insulated flexible cords, and 60245 IEC 57 (YZW) for heavy-duty rubber-insulated cords rated 450/750V. The conductor cross-sections include 0.5mm², 0.75mm², 1.0mm², 1.5mm², and 2.5mm², with corresponding current ratings.

IEC Connector Combinations

Chinese CCC power cords are available with various IEC 60320 connectors. The CCC plug to IEC C13 is rated 10A 250V for computers, monitors, and office equipment. The CCC plug to IEC C5 is rated 2.5A 250V for laptop adapters. The CCC plug to IEC C7 is rated 2.5A 250V for small consumer electronics. The CCC plug to IEC C15 is rated 10A 250V for high-temperature appliances. The CCC plug to IEC C19 is rated 16A 250V for server and data center equipment. All configurations are fully CCC-certified as complete cord sets.
