Study Notes
Japanese Industrial Standards
- JIS is a comprehensive system of standards used for industrial activities in Japan, developed and maintained by the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee (JISC) and published by the Japanese Standards Association (JSA)
History of JIS
- Origins trace back to the Meiji era, when private enterprises were responsible for setting standards
- Japanese Engineering Standard established in 1921, summarising existing standards
- Simplified standards were introduced during World War II to boost production
- Japanese Standard Association was founded in 1946 after Japan’s defeat in World War II
- Industrial Standardization Law enacted in 1949, providing legal framework
- Law revised in 2004, with new JIS mark introduced, along with a transition period
JIS Mark
- The Commercial Standardizing Law was revised in 2004, modifying the "JIS mark" (product documentation system)
- Since October 1st, 2005, the new JIS mark has been applied for re-certification
- The old mark was authorized for use for a three-year transition period (until September 30, 2008)
JIS Standards Structure and Marking
- JIS C 7501: Majority of JIS carry this symbol
- JIS Q 14001: Symbol used when JIS adopts the world standard identically
- JIS X 5056-1: Symbol used when JIS adopts a world standard, but only cites part of the mandatory requirements
- JIS C 3202: Enamelled winding wires, specifying requirements for enamelled winding wires in electrical equipment
- JIS C 5062: Marking codes for resistors and capacitors, defining colour codes for identifying resistance and capacitance values of electronic components
JIS Divisions
-

- JIS D 0004-1: Earth-moving machinery - Scrapers - Part 1: Terminology and commercial specifications to ISO 7133
-
H: Nonferrous Materials and Metallurgy: Standards for metals other than iron and steel, such as copper, aluminium, and titanium
- JIS H 2105: Pig lead
- JIS H 2107: Zinc ingots
- JIS H 2113: Cadmium metal
-
K: Chemical Engineering: Standards for chemical products, processes, and safety

- X: Information Processing: Standards for computer hardware, software, and data communication
- JIS X 0208: 7-bit and 8-bit double byte coded kanji sets for information interchange
Role of JIS
- Essential for the infrastructure of Japan in the form of electric power supply grids and telecommunications networks
- Japanese cable standards infrastructure is crucial in modern life
- Contributing to international standardization activities
- Promoting the development of international and domestic standards to ensure reliability of renewable power generation systems
- Promoting the development of international and domestic standards to ensure grid interconnection requirements
JIS and Technical Standards
- JIS and other industrial standards are private agreements with no binding authority, established by manufacturers, sellers, users and academic experts
- Technical Standards based on the Electrical Utility Law and the Electrical Appliance Safety Law have the power to impose punishment on violators
- Products subject to the laws must comply with Technical Standards, regardless of whether they are manufactured in accordance with other industrial standards.
