JIS C 9108:1992

This Japanese Industrial Standard specifies electric vacuum cleaners for household with a rated power consumption of not less than 100 W but not more than 700 W in which back pressure of a blower driven by a motor is utilized. However, this standard is not applicable to vacuum cleaners which have a self-travelling mechanism, those which have a rotating brush mechanically connected to the blower motor, those to which a floor suction fitting is directly so that the floor suction fitting or the path thereof is not separable, those require piping work and those capable of being charged.
