If it is electrified, the power supply shall not exceed 24 v.
Any toy products sold to Europe must pass the strict test of EN71 standard. The most commonly used is torque & tension, drop test, impact test, compression test. EN71 is the standard for toys in EU market. The European Commission officially published the new toy safety coordination standard en71-1:2011 in ojeu on June 18, 2011. The new harmonized standard is established in accordance with the new toy safety directive 2009 / 48 / EC (effective date: July 20, 2011).
