Doug, Very interesting. Does seem to be an un-excluded overlap with EMC Dir.
Some of the ErP regulations have detailed testing criteria, but I don't know if they "borrowed" from existing harmonized standards. The old ballast directive used to reference an EN, but it did not plagiarize >from it. Regards, -- Lauren Crane (mr.)

The testing specifics are almost line for line EN/ISO14982 without any reference to that document or others like it. This is the first time I have come across this. Also did some digging on the EURO-Lex website, this Directive is not mentioned in any other Directives. This Directive covers Electrical Sub-Assemblies (ESA), but the EMC directive also has harmonized standards (EN14982 for example)with EMC requirements for ESAs. Are both Directives to be applied for products under this Directive?
