The LVD is cited, but the RED is the applicable Directive, as per
article Art. 1.4 of the RED which states
“Radio equipment falling within the scope of this Directive shall not
be subject to Directive 2014/35/EU (LVD), except as set out in point
(a) of Article 3(1) of this Directive.”
In due course, all product EMF standards will be harmonised under RED

Yes, I cited the wrong Directive. Wrong citations are quite common,
due to the Commission and the SMBs citing the largely meaningless
'yyyy/nn' numbers instead of the titles of the Directives.
. The actual situation is that the Directive concerned is the Low
Voltage Directive. The involvement of the RED is ONLY Article 3 1
(a), which applies the LVD without its low-voltage limit. Nothing
else of the RED is relevant.

John,
I think the physical agents Directive is concerned with the
workplace, not with products.
For assessment of RF Exposure risk/safety from products, the RED
is indeed the correct Directive and it would be covered in
Article 3.1a.
Thanks,
Michael.

SECOND RESPONSE
I should have mentioned that exposure standards have nothing to
do with RED but are relevant to a different Directive:
DIRECTIVE 2013/35/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 26 June 2013
on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the
exposure of workers to the risks
arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields) (20th
individual Directive within the meaning
of Article 16(1) of Directive 89/391/EEC) and repealing Directive
2004/40/EC

Dear Members,
Is there any harmonized standards applicable to 13.56 MHz
RFID devices?
The following four standards are listed in the latest
published list standards (March 9, 2018). It seems there is
no one applicable to a 13.56 MHz RFID device.
EN 50360:2017 Product standard to demonstrate the compliance
of wireless communication devices, with the basic
restrictions and exposure limit values related to human
exposure to electromagnetic fields in the frequency range
from 300 MHz to 6 GHz: devices used next to the ear
EN 50385:2017 Product standard to demonstrate the compliance
of base station equipment with radiofrequency electromagnetic
field exposure limits (110 MHz — 100 GHz), when placed on the
market
EN 50401:2017 Product standard to demonstrate the compliance
of base station equipment with radiofrequency electromagnetic
field exposure limits (110 MHz — 100 GHz), when put into service
EN 50566:2017 Product standard to demonstrate the compliance
of wireless communication devices with the basic restrictions
and exposure limit values related to human exposure to
electromagnetic fields in the frequency range from 30 MHz to
6 GHz: hand-held and body mounted devices in close proximity
to the human body
Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Grace Lin
