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,
meets the specified safety and efficient use of electricity requirements.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, by complying with the specified minimum requirements risk of 
accidents such as fire, electric shock, explosion, radiation and other hazards which could result in injuries or deaths to humans and or damages to properties can be minimized or avoided.

APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF APPROVAL 
(CoA) FOR ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT 
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
In improving its delivery services, the Energy Commission (ST) has developed an online system for application of Certificate of Approval (CoA) for the importation and manufacture of household 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 required to apply for the Certificate of Registration to Manufacture/Import before he can proceed with the Certificate of Approval (CoA) application. ST will issue the CoA if applications are in order (test report and all required documents submitted and fees paid to ST). e-Permit is available at 
http://epermit.dagangnet.com  as follows:-

A.  Objective and rationale
Labeling or marking of regulated electrical equipment will enable consumers to differentiate between the approved and non-approved regulated electrical equipment. It also serves as a deterrent and a means to check for non-approved regulated electrical equipment in the market.
B.  Labeling or Marking
All regulated electrical equipment approved by the Commission must be labeled or marked in accordance with regulation 98 of the Electricity Regulations 1994 and shall be done in the manner which has been determined by the Commission as below:
i)   Sticker Type  
There are two types of SIRIM-ST label which shall be affixed on the 
equipment. 
a) SIRIM-ST label (BATCH)
 Importer who has passed Consignment Test shall purchase SIRIM-ST label and affix on each of equipment. The Word BATCH printed on the label shows that the imported equipment gone through BATCH Consignment Test. Sample of the label is as shown below:
             New SIRIM-ST Label

                 Figure 3: SIRIM-ST label for Imported  
b) SIRIM-ST label  
 Local manufacturer and importer who have entered PCS shall purchase SIRIM-ST label and affix on each equipment. Sample of the label is as shown below:

a) For manufacturer or importer which participated in SIRIM-ST Label 
 Licensing Programmed, they may use the SIRIM Certification Mark as 
shown in Figure 5 below.
     b) For small regulated electrical equipment such as lampholder, starter -
holder, glow starter and cable, SIRIM Certification Mark shall be 
 emboss in their products.
 
The manufacturer, importer, exhibitor, seller or advertiser is responsible to ensure that the regulated electrical equipment is affixed with appropriate label or SIRIM Certification Mark whichever is applicable. The Commission will conduct surveillance/enforcement from time to time on manufacturers’ or im-porters’ premises and distributors’ outlets.
C.  Where to affix SIRIM-ST label or SIRIM Certification Mark
The SIRIM-ST label or SIRIM Certification Mark shall be affixed on the regulated 
electrical equipment itself in a legible manner. The SIRIM-ST label shall not be affixed on the packaging. 
D.  Requirement for Energy Efficiency (MEPS) Labelling
Products such as television, refrigerator, domestic fan and air conditioner 
are required to affix with Energy Efficiency label before it can be sold to the consumer. The label as in the energy efficiency labeling guideline shall be followed in accordance to the following specification as shown in Figure 6 below:-
(i) Font Specification
(ii) Colour Specification
(iii) 2-Star rating until 5-Star rating
