The Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, Government of India, is committed to fostering a safe and quality-centric environment nationwide by issuing Quality Control Orders (QCOs) under the Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) framework. These orders regulate various goods imported into or manufactured within the country.
In line with this objective, a recent QCO has been issued to regulate “Outdoor type Oil immersed Distribution Transformers upto and including 2500 kVA, 33 KV-specification: Mineral oil immersed”. This product falls under the mandatory BIS-ISI Mark certification scheme also known as (Scheme-I of Schedule II), making it imperative for manufacturers and importers to obtain a valid license by a specified deadline.
