This national Standard deals with the safety of toys that have at least one function dependent on electricity.
NOTE 1: Examples of toys also within the scope of this standard are
C constructional sets;
C experimental sets;
C functional toys (models that have a function similar to an appliance or installation used by adults);
C video toys (toys consisting of a screen and activating means, such as a joystick or keyboard. Separate screens having a rated voltage exceeding 24 V are not considered to be a part of the toy).
Additional requirements for experimental toys are given in Annex A.
Toys using electricity for secondary functions are within the scope of this standard.
NOTE 2: Additional requirements for toys incorporating lasers and light-emitting diodes are given in Annex E.
In order to comply with this standard, electric toys also have to comply with Annex E of GB 6675-2003, since it covers hazards other than those arising by the use of electricity.
NOTE 3: Transformers for toys and battery chargers are not considered to be a toy, even if supplied with it.
NOTE 4 : If it is intended that a child also plays with the packaging, the latter is considered to be part of the toy.
NOTE 5: This standard does not apply to
C toy steam engines;
C scale models for adult collectors;
C folk dolls and decorative dolls and other similar articles for adult collectors;
C sports equipment;
C aquatic equipment intended to be used in deep water;
C equipment intended to be used collectively in playgrounds;
C amusement machines (GB 4706.69);
C professional toys installed in public places (shopping centres, stations, etc.);
C products containing heating elements intended for use under the supervision of an adult in a teaching context;
C portable child-appealing luminaires (GB 7000.4);
C Christmas decorations.
