BIS Scheme X Consultant in Kerala

What Is BIS Scheme X Certification?

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) introduced Scheme X under the Machinery & Electrical Equipment Safety (Omnibus Technical Regulation) Order, 2024, to standardise machinery and electrical product safety in India. This certification ensures that only equipment meeting Indian Standards (IS) is manufactured, imported, or sold in the country. From 1 September 2026, BIS certification under Scheme X will be mandatory for all regulated machinery and electrical products.
