1999年8月，电气取缔法(The Electrical Appliance and Material Control Law)改为电气安全(DENAN)法(The Electronics Appliance and Material Safety Law),并经2年之公告，于2001年四月一日起生效。原在电取法中，只有日本之国家标准，在新法-电安法中，便增列国际标准(加上日本之国家差异，如电压差异)，于电安法中(即Part2)，名为IECJ。一般而言，电气测试需视不同的额定电压予以测试，原电取法内包含EMI之要求，故除IEC标准外，也一定要符合EMI之要求。但如CB报告中之电压不同，则此CB报告不能被接受。未来也会朝放宽 法令之方向，将不再把测试标准明定于法令中(第1号，第 2号等...)，而改为“参 考某某标准”。但对于产品责任追究，则更加严谨。如已注册符合PSE mark产品，产品于上市生发生问题，进口商依法将被罚1亿日元，并需坐牢。此外，除需停止生产销售有问题之产品，还要进一步回收已在市面上销售之产品，该产品之注册ID也将取消。
甲类产品(Category A Product)改为特定电气用品(Specified Electrical Appliance and Material),贴于产品三角形T-mark改为菱形PSE mark,并需标示认可实验室之名称(如JET、JQA等)。原电取法规定之产品种类，由165项再减为113项。而乙类产品(Category B Product)则改为非特定用品，需贴圆形PSE mark(性质类似CE mark)。原电取法规定之产品种类，由333项再增为343项。此类立产品亦需向日本经济产业省 (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry简称METI)取得注册ID。特定与非特定产品在PSE系统 中的主要差异，特定与非特定产品在PSE系统中的主要差异，在于强制性认证产品需由指定之实验室发“适合性同等检查合格书”即PSE证书，而自愿认证产品只需持有一般实验室之测试报告，便可向METI申请注册。

申请者资格
必须是拥有在日本政府注册之日本商社，才能向METI申请注册。特定产品类的海外制造厂如要预防代理商配合情况不佳时，需要换代理商所可能带来的产品销售问题，可以于产品测试通过时，加买多份“适合性同等检查合格书”，以便交由新的代理商向METI申请注册。
申请所需的文件及样品
1.安全性测试
•CB 证书+报告 (含日本的差异报告)
•线路图、PCB Layout、BOM表、结构图
•日文使用手册或组装手册
•含PSE标志及通报供货商名称的日文标签
•产品内外观照片
2.RFI测试
提供RFI 测试报告 (100 V) 与EMI测试实验室的认证资格文件
3.工厂检验文件证明
符合证明
下列单位可提出PSE标志符合证明之申请：
•日本制造商
•日本进口商
•已指定日本进口商已指定的国外制造商
测试样品
执行安全性测试 / RFI 测试时需二个样品。
