UL4200A certification is a mandatory standard adopted by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to enhance the safety of products containing button batteries. This standard mainly applies to consumer products that contain button or coin batteries, such as remote controls, children's toys, etc., ensuring that these products do not pose harm to people and the environment during everyday use. The report is a safety test report for consumer products containing button or coin batteries. The purpose of this standard is to ensure that these products, under normal and abusive conditions, do not allow children to access the batteries, thereby reducing the risk of children accidentally swallowing or ingesting them.

 

The UL 4200a standard covers aspects such as product structural design, battery securing methods, and casing protection. It requires that products meet a series of performance tests, such as stress release tests, drop tests, and impact tests, to ensure product safety.

 

According to the latest Amazon regulations, any consumer product containing a button battery needs to provide the following documents to ensure compliance:

 

UL4200A Certification:
