Jebao Pumps - Illegal?

From what I was told, CE certification means nothing and will not be accepted by the ESA.

This is what I have read and heard as well. CE is only a valid standard in Europe, and basically just means Chinese export.

I will double check tomorrow when I go to work, I will give my ESA guy a call and verify CE, I am pretty sure it is accepted.

The CE certification is irrelevant because it has the c UL us, provided it's not counterfit.

Should they have documentation to prove the c UL us code?

[Cal_stir]

The manufacturer of the power supply should have it, there is a place on the ESA website where you can see if it is listed.

I. Can't prove it but their claim to be ul etc is not true. Long story but it's counterfeit from what I was told. This is a big deal right now and ce means nothing here. Wp pumps are illegal across the country but Alberta and Quebec have less rules on this type of thing.

Forgot to mention from what I was told if your house burns down from this pump your insurance won't pay. I would love more clarification on this problem.

Told by whom?

My "wall wart" AC/DC adapter has the certification.
Unless this is a fake, it's recognized in Canada in every province as far as I know.(Source)

I am waiting to hear back on anything other then the CE rating from Jebao. They are in no way illegal for anyone and if you are concerned with the csa stamp you should probably get rid of your wavelive/speedwave/diablo dc pumps as well.

I also have not seen ul or csa stamped on anything from them ever. So to say they are fraudulently doing so because they announced on their site to recently have gotten those certs (which may be on all or only some products they make) seems out of line unless you have something proving that.
