RE: Korean approvals
Mirko, this is all getting very muddy now that there is an APEC MRA on Telecom requirements and an APEC MRA on Product Safety in the offing. Combine that with Korea in the throes of changing over to a program that is more like the FCC program (before the FCC launches a Notice of Inquiry on whether to do away with Part 68) and you can conclude that things are in a state of flux. Ciao, Vic

Re: Korean approvals
Dear Robert, You need to refer to the APEC MRA documents and also country specific documents/rules on how they are implementing the various phases of this MRA.. Not all APEC members signed the MRA but one of them is Korea. The APEC MRA can be found at http://www.tsacc.ic.gc.ca/MRA/";. The commencement date is July 1, 1999 to those who signed it. From what I understand if the telecommunications regulations include compliance to telecom, safet(electrical) and EMC rules then these are covered under this agreement. APL:AC agreement covered recognition of lab accredation procedures between countries so that accreditation and recognition was easier. In Australia's case this procedure worked mutually well for telecom testing,. However some countries quasi national labs and/or telecom and EMC regulation authorities denied that this obligated them to recognize labs in other countries based on the existing accreditation by the APLAC member body in that country and an audit visit to accrediate by that same body. This was the case in Taiwan with EMC and also in Korea. There is a lot of information out there and I would recommend that people link into the APEC web sites as well as those of Industry Canada for ongoing updates. Yours truly, G. Rae Dulmage, B.

Re: Korean approvals
Korea (KOLAS) is a signatory of APLAC (Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation) along with the United States (NVLAP and A2LA). It is my understanding that, in the near future, this will change the way Korean approvals are done. I am not sure of the details...can anyone shed further light on what exactly APLAC will accomplish? === === Graham Rae Dulmage on 06/17/99 12:08:00 AM Please respond to t...@world.std.com To: t...@world.std.com cc:(bcc: Robert E. Heller/US-Corporate/3M/US) Subject: Re: Korean approvals Bill, If you are not a Canadian Corporation and/or applicant you should have a rep or agent in Korea. This is the fundamental difference between the situation for a Canadian company. When the MRA was written this point was not clarified for non-Canadian applicants such that the process has been to have an agent, though in some cases non-Canadian applicants have obtained approval in their name in Korea without the agent being the applicant, though the agent/rep had to be involved. KTL also received safety accreditation from RRL for telecom equipment within the last few days. Details should be available from KTL shortly. Regards G. Rae Dulmage, B.

Obtain a CENELEC CB scheme safety test report first as this will simplify the safety submission but make sure you submit the safety to the Korean CB scheme lab. They will then variffy the report for RRL. Going direct to RRL will involve a high level of testing which includes parts that are accepted elsewhere under different approval schemes. > > > > The MIC (Ministry of Information & Communications) and the RRL (Radio Regulations Lab) both publish data on the www.
