Dear Paul, For the Japanese EMI requirements go to the VCCI website and look up their information. Some is free and some has to be ordered. They are pretty responsive people when asked a question. The Website address is: http://www.vcci.jp/vcci/vccie/. For safety Japan follows the CB scheme for some requirements. You need to check with JETRO as to what the requirements are for your product. If it is CB scheme I strongly recommend that you either order or get yourself a copy of the CB Bulletin's as these give very clear guides on the national deviations for various product type requirements in the CB scheme countries. JETRO web site address is: http://www.jetro.co.uk/ and for the CB scheme it is http://www.cbscheme.org. Some manufacturers mistakenly assume that CB scheme means the standard is identical and all you need to do is submit reports and certificates in each country. This is not the case in part because the electrical systems are not the same in all countries.
I hope this helps. Regards G. Rae Dulmage, B.
