Hi Kim, I do not agree with John, read the EMC guide page 30, the guide can be found here: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/sectors/electrical/files/emcguide_may2007_en. pdf
The guide is referring to ETSI TR 102 070-1 for the application of harmonised standards to multi-radio and non-radio equipment for EMC (part 1: EMC) Read (ETSI TR 102 070-1 ): 5.2 Category 1 - where all products can operate independently of each other In this category it is assumed that the individual products will have been assessed and shown to be in compliance with the relevant directives. The combined equipment should comply with article 3.1(b) of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Individual products used within the combined equipment have complete functionality in their own right. If used on their own then the relevant harmonized EMC standard for that product should be used to demonstrate conformity for that product. 5.3 Category 2 - where one or more of the individual products cannot operate independently Within this category of combined equipment, the product providing the control functions can be operated separately and therefore will have been assessed to the relevant harmonized EMC standard for that product. The combined equipment shall comply with article 3.1(b) of the R&TTE Directive [1]. 5.4 Category 3 - where none of the component parts operate independently This category of combined equipment is characterized by the fact that the various component parts cannot operate independently. The combined equipment should comply with article 3.1(b) of the R&TTE Directive [1]. The primary function of the combined equipment should be declared by the manufacturer. Check out the paragraph with apply for your Chinese equipment.

No. For a multi-function product, which falls within the scopes of more than one standard with different requirements, the *more stringent* requirements apply. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
