ANSI/CAN/UL 2743:2023 Portable Power Safety Standard

Update time : 2025-09-11

Urgent Alert! Companies manufacturing car jump starter power outlets (especially US standard) should pay attention: an easily overlooked "rain test" is becoming a major obstacle to passing ul 2743 certification!

 

With overseas orders surging, demand for UL 2743 Certification is booming! However, many companies focus only on the basic requirements and step into a critical "trap": the rain test!

 

ANSI/CAN/UL 2743:2023 Portable Power Safety Standard(图1)


UL 2743 Standard Specifies:

"Any portable power bank with a car jump-start function cannot be considered for indoor use only!" This means it must account for temporary outdoor scenarios — such as sudden heavy rain!

 

Chapter 60 of UL 2743 – "Rain Test" Requirements:

Products must endure a continuous 1-hour "torrential rain" exposure under a dedicated rain test apparatus!

 

Key Bottom Line:

Water accumulation inside the enclosure must never reach any hazardous live components! Otherwise, a more complex leakage current test is required to prove safety, greatly increasing certification difficulty and failure risk!

 

Imagine This:

After passing all other tests, your product fails because of a "simulated downpour"? The product may be deemed unsuitable for outdoor use due to insufficient waterproofing, resulting in certification failure, rejected orders, or even recall risk… The cost is enormous!

 

Industry Recommendations: From Certification to Full Lifecycle Management
