INTRODUCTION
Why CoA is required?
The objective for the issuance of CoA under the Electricity Regulations 1994 is to ensure that all activities to manufacture, import, display, sale or advertisement of:
(a) any domestic equipment;(b) any low voltage equipment which is usually sold directly to the general public; or(c) any low voltage equipment which does not require special skills in its operation,
meetsthespecifiedsafetyandefficientuseofelectricityrequirements.
Consumers’ interests in the use of electrical equipment shall be protected through the determination of the equipment being :-
(a) compatible to Malaysian electricity supply system;(b) complying to standards; (c) tested by accredited laboratory;(d) labelled with SIRIM-ST’s label.
Therefore,bycomplyingwiththespecifiedminimumrequirementsriskofaccidentssuchasfire, electric shock, explosion, radiation and other hazardswhich could result in injuries ordeathstohumansandordamagestopropertiescanbeminimizedoravoided.

APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF APPROVAL FOR ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
In improving its delivery services, the Energy Commission (ST) has developed an online sys-tem for application ofCertificate ofApproval (CoA) for the importation andmanufacture ofhousehold electrical equipment. Effective 1st October 2010, all applications are done online via e-Permit system operated by DagangNet Technologies Sdn. Bhd. (DagangNet).
To import household electrical equipment, applicants or their local agents need to register with DagangNet. Once registered, applicants can proceed to apply electronically. Applicants are re-quiredtoapplyfortheCertificateofRegistrationtoManufacture/ImportbeforehecanproceedwiththeCertificateofApproval(CoA)application.STwillissuetheCoAifapplicationsareinorder (test report and all required documents submitted and fees paid to ST).
