I am working on the first Industrial Machine of my career so I could use some advice and clarification regarding the requirements for FCC emissions.
I have been told by many that in North America, Industrial Equipment does not have to be tested, verified, or anything for FCC by the manufacturer of the equipment. Is this true? I was told that interference is unlikely, even if the equipment exceeds the FCC emissions limits. Meeting the FCC limits is recommended, and voluntary, but not required. True? On the other hand, Europe is not so. If EE equipment goes to Europe, it has to pass the EN 55011 emissions test as well as the immunity tests. Is that correct? Any additional information that would be helpful to me would be appreciated.
