As a benchmark enterprise in China's electrical manufacturing field, Wenzhou Heyi Electrical Co., Ltd. has always been deeply involved in the international market with a global vision.
Against the background of the adjustment of market access rules after Brexit, the company accurately grasped the opportunity, and its core products such as circuit breakers, power distribution systems and smart switches successfully passed the UKCA (UK Conformity Assessment) certification, indicating that its products fully comply with UK market regulations and safety standards, laying a solid foundation for expanding the Commonwealth market.
UKCA certification: a "hard-core pass" for UK market access
UKCA certification is a mandatory compliance mark launched by the British government to replace the EU CE certification.
It is applicable to England, Scotland and Wales, covering key indicators such as electrical safety, energy efficiency and environmental protection.
Heyi Electric passed the UKCA certification, indicating that its products strictly comply with the British BS EN standards and the Electrical Equipment Safety Regulations (EPSR), especially in terms of short-circuit protection, mechanical durability and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and other performances to meet the stringent requirements of the British market.
This certification not only reflects the company's deep understanding of British regulations, but also highlights its agile ability to quickly respond to changes in global market rules.
Technical breakthroughs and system upgrades to create a compliance benchmark
To meet the UKCA certification requirements, Wenzhou Heyi Electric implemented a "dual-track drive" strategy:
on the one hand, it cooperated with the British certification agency to localize the product adaptation and transformation, optimize the circuit design and material selection, and ensure compliance with the British voltage environment and usage habits;
on the other hand, it reconstructed the internal quality control system, introduced British standard testing equipment, and established a full-link compliance management mechanism covering design, production, and testing.
During the certification process, the company has completed more than 500 British standard tests, and the key product life test has exceeded 50,000 times, with a failure rate of less than 0.01%, far exceeding the industry average.
Empowering customers to seize the UK market and build a trust barrier
UKCA certification brings triple value to Heyi Electric's partners: first, eliminating trade barriers and helping customers' products seamlessly enter the UK and Commonwealth markets;
second, strengthening brand credibility, the UKCA logo has become a "plus point" for UK engineering project bidding and supply chain audits;
third, reducing compliance risks and avoiding legal disputes through third-party authoritative endorsements. At present, the company has provided UKCA-certified power distribution solutions for many commercial complexes and new energy projects in the UK, and the customer repurchase rate has increased by 35% for three consecutive years, becoming a model case of Sino-British economic and trade cooperation.
Forward-looking layout, deepening global market penetration
With UKCA certification as a fulcrum, Heyi Electric is accelerating the layout of the UK local service system, setting up a technical support center and spare parts warehouse, and exploring low-carbon technology cooperation with British energy companies.
In the future, the company will continue to drive innovation with certification, promote product intelligence and green upgrades, provide global users with safer and more efficient electrical protection, and let "China Smart Manufacturing" continue to lead in the international high-standard track.
