Have interpreted the announcement that current products that have a representative and bear the 'c-tick' mark will not have to be registered and bear RCM until June 2015. Correct? Does the ACMA Supplier Code Number come from the representative, or does the mfr have to apply for this number? thanks, Brian -----Original Message----- From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org]On Behalf Of Kevin Richardson Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2012 2:11 PM To: 'Ron Pickard'; EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: RE: [PSES] ACMA labelling arrangement change announcement Hi Ron, Just to clarify, as the announcement says, this is related to labelling and does not mean any changes to technical requirements. All importers of overseas product however, will now also have to “register” on a national database., even if they already have been issued with an ACMA Supplier Code Number. The timing of the commencement of these new arrangements are to coincide with the commencements of completely new electrical safety arrangements in Australia and New Zealand, the EESS arrangements. These will have very significant impact, again, not so much on the technical requirements but on the processes imposed on the suppliers of product into Australia or New Zealand.

Please note that this will obviously affect all 3 labeling notices. Best regards, Ron -----Original message----- From: Technical Regulation Development Section <single.m...@acma.gov.au> Sent: Mon, Mar 5, 2012 03:16:10 GMT+00:00 Subject: Upcoming changes to the ACMA labelling arrangements Announcement Notice of upcoming changes to the ACMA labelling arrangements (RCM) The ACMA is consolidating the three existing compliance marks (C-Tick, A-Tick and RCM) into a single compliance mark—the RCM. This will indicate a device's compliance with all applicable ACMA regulatory arrangements—that is, for telecommunications, radiocommunications, EMC and EME—and with applicable State and Territory electrical equipment safety requirements. The C-Tick and A-Tick compliance marks are to be phased out. A new database will be established for all supplier registration and the supplier identification requirements removed from the labelling notices. The changes are currently proposed to start on 1 July 2012 to align with the proposed commencement date for the Electrical Regulatory Authorities Council (ERAC) Electrical Equipment Safety System (EESS). The commencement of the new ACMA arrangements may be postponed if there is a delay in the commencement of the EESS. The current ACMA labelling arrangements apply until the commencement date. From 1 July 2012, the new arrangements will only apply to new suppliers—those not registered on the ACMA supplier database. >From 1 July 2015, the arrangements will apply to all suppliers.
