Scott Test labs should test to standards. Manufacturers declare to compliance to Directives. The two beams should not cross :)
You won't get anything officially, but unofficially the EU MSAs and enforcement agencies should take a pragmatic stance regarding DoCs and not be too concerned whether existing or new Directives are being referenced for several months after the 20 April. * (* This was stated verbally by a representative of the UK Department for Business Innovation and Skills at UK seminar earlier this year) Regards Charlie -----Original Message----- From: Scott Xe [mailto:scott...@gmail.com] Sent: 21 August 2015 16:53 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] New EMC Directive 2014/30/EU & LV Directive 2014/35/EU Hi All, The captioned directives will be enforced on 20 April 2016 with no transition period. As of today, no accredited laboratories accept the compliance verification to those directive until 20 April 2016. They claim they cannot test to those directives until 20 April 2016 as per the directive. It is impossible in the industry to prepare for any compliant products to be put on the market on 20 April 2016. Since there is no any technical changes, can we just update the DoC using the compliant report of old directives. Or any other idea/original idea of these new directives to allow the compliant product putting on the market in good order.
