Kristiaan, The EMC regulations in Australia allow compliance with any of the following for IT type equipment: a) AS/NZS 3548:1995 or AS/NZS CISPR 22:2002; or b) CISPR 22:1997 + Amdt 1:2000 or CISPR 22:1997 + Amdt 1:2000 + Amdt 2:2002; or c) EN 55022:1994 + Amdt 1:1995 + Amdt 2:1997 (until Aug 05) or EN 55022:1998 or EN 55022:1998 + Amdt 1:2000
For European standards the Australian EMC regulations specifically states the following:- "Transitional arrangements for amendments to the standards are: - Two (2) years for IEC, CISPR, AS/NZS standards at the time of publication - transitional period as published in the Official Journal of the European Communities for EN standards This means that if you choose to declare compliance to European standards now that Europe has officially revised the "cessation date" for EN 55022:1994 to Aug 05 then compliance with EN 55022:1994 is acceptable in Australia until Aug 05. In July I prepared a table identifying what standards were acceptable in Australia and until what dates they were acceptable. I have attached this information in a PDF file. Please note it reflects the then official OJ listed "cessation date" for EN 55022:1994 (i.e. Aug 03). Now the OJ has officially revised this date to Aug 05 this standard would be acceptable until then. I hope you and others in the group find the table informative and useful.

Kristiaan,
The EMC regulations in Australia allow compliance with any of the following
for IT type equipment:
a) AS/NZS 3548:1995 or AS/NZS CISPR 22:2002; or
b) CISPR 22:1997 + Amdt 1:2000 or CISPR 22:1997 + Amdt 1:2000 + Amdt
2:2002; or
c) EN 55022:1994 + Amdt 1:1995 + Amdt 2:1997 (until Aug 05) or EN
55022:1998 or EN 55022:1998 + Amdt 1:2000
For European standards the Australian EMC regulations specifically states
the following:-
"Transitional arrangements for amendments to the standards are:
- Two (2) years for IEC, CISPR, AS/NZS standards at the time of publication
- transitional period as published in the Official Journal of the European
Communities for EN standards
This means that if you choose to declare compliance to European standards
now that Europe has officially revised the "cessation date" for EN
55022:1994 to Aug 05 then compliance with EN 55022:1994 is acceptable in
Australia until Aug 05.
In July I prepared a table identifying what standards were acceptable in
Australia and until what dates they were acceptable. I have attached this

Hello Group,
>From Jan 2004, the ACA in Australia will require compliance with the
standard AS/NZS CISPR 2002 for telecom products i.s.o. AS/NZS 3548.
I understand this new standard is a copy of CISPR22:1998 incl. A1.
Compliance with EN55022:1998 incl. A1 will also be acceptable.
Taken into account the shift of the DOW of EN55022:1994 to Aug. 2005 because
of the technical issues in the 1998 +A1 version, is anyone aware of the
actual position taken by Australia ? Shall a mftr have to test its product
twice, to the 1994 and 1998+A1 version?
