Jim, I would agree with Peter's advice. Item 7 is the relevant exemption (under Schedule 2 of the EMC Labelling Notice) providing, as Peter say, it is only supplied as a spare part for the original equipment.

Jim, Below is part of the exemptions from the new labelling notice. 7 A spare part that has: (a) identical specifications to the device it is to replace; or (b) the same radiofrequency emission characteristics as that device 8 A component, except a component that is an assembly of components that forms part of a finished device 9 A device that is for incorporation into another device and is not to be supplied to an end-user. >From these exemptions I would say that the chassis that is a replacement does not need its own C-Tick as long as it not sold as a separate product. Please let me know if I can help you further with Australian and/or New Zealand or other dcountry regulations. You can e-mail me direct at my TUV Rheinland address pmerguer...@us.tuv.com or call me at (925) 249-9123 Extension 134 Thanks, Peter --- On Thu, 1/15/09, Knighten, Jim L <jim.knigh...@teradata.com> wrote: From: Knighten, Jim L <jim.knigh...@teradata.com> Subject: C-Tick mark on spares? To: emc-p...@ieee.org Date: Thursday, January 15, 2009, 10:09 AM I have a question about the c-tick mark for Australia and New Zealand. My company’s hardware products are typically racks of IT equipment that are largely integrations of other companies’ products, i.e., servers, switches, storage, UPS, etc. We test and apply the c-tick mark on our products on the product label on our rack. Some of our individual chassis have a c-tick mark and some do not (either the chassis manufacturer does not apply for c-tick, or it is a chassis that we make that is only sold as a component in the overall product). Regarding spares: If we ship spare chassis as a replacement into a c-tick country, does that chassis need its own c-tick mark? Or, is having a c-tick mark on the larger product that encompasses the chassis sufficient? I appreciate your collective wisdom and experience. Jim __________________________ James L.
