Highlighted industries are sectors that drive economic growth, innovation, and job creation. They often involve cutting-edge technologies, sustainable solutions.
Electric insect killers used in households and small work areas are governed by IS 302 (Part 2 / Section 59):2024, read together with IS 302 (Part 1). These standards define how such appliances must be designed, tested, and placed in the market. As these devices are widely used in homes, shops, and farm spaces, safety and reliability are key factors driving demand.
Before entering the Indian market, these products must carry the ISI mark under BIS certification. Manufacturers apply under Scheme I and comply with the applicable Quality Control Order (QCO), including fees and customs-related formalities for import or export. Many brands rely on professional support to manage this structured process smoothly.
IS 302 (Part 2 / Section 59) specifies safety requirements for electric insect killers intended for household use and similar environments such as small farms and light industrial areas. These appliances operate at rated voltages up to 250 V and may include battery-operated or DC models.
The standard does not apply to devices that use vaporized chemicals, ultrasonic methods, or appliances designed for hazardous or explosive environments. Products with special lamps may fall under other standards such as IS 10322, and appliances used in vehicles or ships may require additional compliance.
Electric insect killers are commonly used in residential homes affected by mosquitoes and flies. They are also widely found in small shops, food outlets, storage rooms, and farm facilities. Users prefer products that are easy to operate, low in noise, and safe for everyday use, which directly influences product design and testing requirements.
BIS certification under IS 302 (Part 2 / Section 59):2024 defines the safety pathway for electric insect killers sold in India. These rules ensure clarity in product construction, testing procedures, and safe usage conditions.
