Scope

GB/T 44676-2024 is the English-translated version of 电动自行车售后服务规范.

China's national specification for the after-sales service of electric bicycles. There are several hundred million electric bicycles in China, and their after-sales service is a genuinely consequential matter rather than a consumer convenience. The battery is the reason: it is the most expensive component, it degrades and is replaced during the vehicle's life, and the replacements bought from an unregulated market are the direct cause of the fires that have killed people in residential buildings. A service specification addresses that by defining what a manufacturer's service network must provide - genuine replacement batteries and parts, competent diagnosis, safe disposal of the batteries removed - and what records must be kept. The charger is the second item: a charger mismatched to a battery is as dangerous as a bad battery, and the two are commonly separated during a vehicle's life.
