[PSES] Compliance engineering contacts at Plextor and Netgear

2012-02-21 Thread Edward Fitzgerald


Hi all,

I'm trying to obtain compliance related documentation for a couple of products 
manufactured by both Plextor and Netgear.

The usual technical support channels yield nothing as this sort of request is 
outside the norm, as I have a project that incorporates these manufacturers 
products in to a larger system that is about to go through UL Safety testing.

Many thanks for your support,

Edward Fitzgerald

Brian,

The answer to your second question is 'no'.

With respect, you seem to have missed the point that the NLF has no direct 
bearing on manufacturers - it is a set of rules and principles for legislators, 
enforcement agencies and accreditation bodies.

You can be forgiven for failing to understand this, others have made the same 
mistake.

However, in practice what it means is that if you are a manufacturer, you can 
essentially ignore the NLF and focus on what is in the directives and 
regulations themselves. Competence is not legislated for in any of the New 
Approach directives, nor is any such requirement introduced in the current set 
of proposed amendments which will align several of the older Directives with 
the principles of the NLF.

Nick.

 I concur that, for now, the principle that self declaration remains 
 the basis of the system remains in place. How should the requirements 
 for competence and accreditation be addressed?
 Conformity assessment requires:
 1. Internal product control
 2. Recurring product testing

 The presumption of conformity is based on the competence to perform 
 these two activities. Will NB audits be the only acceptable way?

You would need to cite specific instances to have them clarified.


So what other legislation allows me to ignore these regs?


They simply aren't addressed to you. You need to look at the amended 
Directives.



Are EU regs available in Klingon?


Some seem to have been imperfectly translated from that language.

Re: [PSES] Compliance engineering contacts at Plextor and Netgear

2012-02-21 Thread Brian Oconnell
Typically, you would request their compliance people to submit the test
certs, cb report, emc report, etc directly to the UL assessment engineer.
For an end-use product that does not require professional installation, the
request for complete safety and EMC documentation is a bit unusual.

Re: [PSES] Compliance engineering contacts at Plextor and Netgear

2012-02-21 Thread IBM Ken
You mentioned contacting customer service.  I generally have good luck
calling companies and asking to speak to their Quality Assurance
department; often they are the same people doing
compliance/certification work, or they know the right people to talk
to.  Asking sales people for certification info usually doesn't turn
out well.

Re: [PSES] EU NLF directives

2012-02-21 Thread Brian Oconnell
Thanks much. These links were avail via my OP.

What I think the EMC proposal says - submit your docs to NB, and they
evaluate company's reports.
What the NBs have said to me - submit your product to me for test and
approval and have the factory subject to CIG audit, because under NLF, we
are liable.

Other than the intro, the LVD proposal does not even mention the phrase
'Notified Body'; and has some interesting general statements such as The
manufacturer, having detailed knowledge of the design and production
process, is best placed to carry out the complete conformity assessment
procedure for electrical equipment. Conformity assessment should therefore
remain the obligation of the manufacturer alone. and Economic operators
should be responsible for the compliance of electrical equipment in relation
to their respective roles in the supply chain 

I do not understand the intent of the proposed EMCD. I do understand the
intent of the proposed LVD.

If these products sell into the EU, the DoC will be available.  Maybe on their 
website?  The DoC has a name, title and signature- can always start with that 
person.

Hi all,

I'm trying to obtain compliance related documentation for a couple of
products manufactured by both Plextor and Netgear.

The usual technical support channels yield nothing as this sort of request
is outside the norm, as I have a project that incorporates these
manufacturers products in to a larger system that is about to go through UL
Safety testing.

Many thanks for your support,

Re: [PSES] Compliance engineering contacts at Plextor and Netgear

2012-02-21 Thread Brian Oconnell
UL, for some components and equipment, has specific doc and construction
requirements that would not be specified in the DoC. And UL would probably
not accept a company-generated TCF. There is no formal requirement in North
America for a mfr to provide reports to customer.

You mentioned contacting customer service.  I generally have good luck
calling companies and asking to speak to their Quality Assurance
department; often they are the same people doing
compliance/certification work, or they know the right people to talk to.
Asking sales people for certification info usually doesn't turn out
well.

Netgear: here here. Please take me off the February 21st most wanted list.
Ed, just spoke to your colleague, help is on the way, just sign the NDA. 
 
BTW, getting these type of requests for test reports and certs are pretty 
common. Usually doesn't involve Interpol search, simple phone call to the front 
desk does the trick.
