Oops!! I missed number 4. 4) Your best bet is to use a Competent Body. You can put together a TCF (Let a CB do a couple for you first until you get familiar with it) then have them review/approve it. Then the package is not likely to get rejected if there is a challenge to your marking of the product.

I'm not sure if I should be going the TCF route or the Standards Route. The company that I work for manufactures products which have many variants. 1) Is it EC law that a manufacturer must perform EMI testing before applying the CE mark? 2) If a manufacturer follows the Standards Route, does EC law require each variant to be tested? 3) If, when testing, the limit is exceeded, can the CE mark still be applied? 4) Are the services of a Competent Body required in order to put together a TCF or can the manufacturer do that on his own?
