In the electrical and electronics sectors, copper is commonly utilized for printed circuit boards (PCBs), wiring, cables, transformers, and motors. It is the preferred metal for electrical transmission due to its excellent conductivity. Because of its aesthetic appeal and resistance to corrosion, it is utilized in architectural features, gutters, downspouts, and roofs. Because copper resists corrosion well in most settings, it may be used in long-lasting applications. Humans have been using it for thousands of years; it dates back to the time of the ancient Egyptian and Roman civilizations. It was essential to the creation of early tools and metallurgy.
For producers in the copper sector, the IS Standard IS 191:2007 is very important. Copper items that adhere to this standard are guaranteed to fulfill certain quality standards. Copper produced by manufacturers who follow IS 191:2007 is renowned for its purity, uniformity, and performance attributes. Following this standard guarantees copper's smooth integration into a wide range of production processes.
Note: Prior to releasing their products on the Indian market, all copper manufacturers are required to get the ISI Mark Certification.
In order to ensure that copper goods meet strict safety requirements, technical standards, and quality standards, ISI Certification is required. This certification eventually improves the performance and dependability of the systems and products that use copper. It guarantees the efficiency and durability of their applications by assuring businesses in the building, manufacturing, and electrical engineering sectors that the copper they use in their processes and products is of the highest grade.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
