John Annex II of the machinery directive requires
The EC declaration of conformity must contain the following particulars: 1. ... 2. name and address of the person authorised to compile the technical file, who must be established in the Community; 3. ..... That may or may not be the manufacturer, but they must be in the EU. That's not the same thing as an "authorised representative" which is optional for the Machinery (and many other) Directive(s). Regards Charlie From: John Allen [mailto:jral...@productsafetyinc.com] Sent: 01 November 2016 19:32 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] Authorised Representative Hi, I always thought an Authorized Representative was required for Machinery but option for other Directives. I searched Machinery and LVD and only see manufacturer "or" authorised representative. If I'm wrong please point me to the particular section of the Directive.
