On the 1 April 2020, the Chinese Standardization Administration (SAC) enacted the Notice postponing the implementation of 13 standards, due to the effects of COVID-19.

Consequently, the following 8 Standards have had their entry into force date moved from 1 May 2020 to **1 November 2020**: 

- GB 19576-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for unitary air conditioners
- GB 30255-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades of LED products for indoor lighting
- GB 37478-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades of LED luminaires for road and tunnel lighting
- GB 37479-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for ducted air conditioners
- GB 37480-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for low ambient temperature air source heat pumps (water chiller) packages
- GB 37483-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for rotary aerator in wastewater treatment
- GB 37484-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for precipitator
- GB 37485-2019 Minimum allowable values of energy efficiency and energy efficiency grades for submersible mixers of wastewater

The entry into force date of the following 5 standards is moved from 1 July 2020 to **1 January 2021**:

- GB 25501-2019 Minimum allowable values of water efficiency and water efficiency grades for faucets
- GB 28377-2019 Minimum allowable values of water efficiency and water efficiency grades for urinals
- GB 28378-2019 Minimum allowable values of water efficiency and water efficiency grades for showers
- GB 30717-2019 Minimum allowable values of water efficiency and water efficiency grades for squatting pans
- GB 38448-2019 Minimum allowable values and grades of the energy efficiency and water efficiency for smart water closets
