If you don't get any useful response here, let me know and I'll refer
your enquiry to the automotive EMC experts on the BSI committee.

Hello all,
I’ve got an inquiry with the UK government Vehicle Certification
Agency (VCA) regarding EMC testing of automotive components but they
are taking an age to respond. Does anyone here have any experience
with EMC type approval of auto components? The questions I asked were:
1. In this document -
https://www.dft.gov.uk/vca/additional/files/vehicle-type-approval/vehicle-type-approval/vca004.pdf
- section 2.2 discusses “System or Component” approval. Do OEM
spare parts fall into this scope?
2. Looking at the flowchart in -
http://www.dft.gov.uk/vca/additional/files/vehicle-type-approval/system--component-type-approval/vca045.pdf
- I can see that some components do not fall under the ‘immunity
related’ category.
1. When testing non ‘immunity related’ parts, does this testing
need to take place at a VCA accredited facility or to be VCA
witnessed?
2. When this document quotes the R&TTE directive, am I correct in
assuming that it actually should now refer to the Radio
Equipment Directive since the R&TTE has been repealed?
I appreciate this is a bit of a niche question but I’ve always been
surprised at the breadth of knowledge in this forum!
Many thanks
James
