Hello Tin, The quotations you add to your mail exactly tell me that you should ce-mark the thing, but for electrical safety only. Very limited components qualify themselves for exclusion from the LVD. Especially components that are targetted to be used on the primary side of the internal/extern

This was discussed before, but I wasn't listening closely enough. What does it take to show that panel indicator LEDs meet applicable requirements of IEC 60825 (IEC 825)? __ Heber Farnsworth Physio-Control, Seattle, USA

Scott, especially for ITE products there is EN 50116 which specifies the test which need to be performed during the production. It was intended to specify the minimum requirements and give some guidance to those companies not obtaining certificates. Read it carefully. Not all tests need to be don

Keith asks an excellent question. We make ITE and therefore use EN 60950. We have always been required by TUV to do dielectric strength and ground continuity tests on 100% of production systems. I believe that was because we put GS marks on the systems. We do not GS mark anything any longer. Are

Kevin, CEPT/ERC publish different kinds of documents: Decisions, Recommendations and Reports. Reports are just that - reports. Decisions are essentially instructions to radio regulatory authorities around Europe (like the UK Radiocommunications Agency) to either adopt certain ETSI standards for t

Gert; Certainly the coupling to a cable is dependent upon the frequency of the signal and the cable's length. In the case of a product whose cables may be 30-40 meters long, coupling may theoretically exist at frequencies down to ~2.5MHz. There are a few considerations: 1) the current radiated im

Hello Keith, Very good question as it the answer is not obvious, I am sure there is going to be more then one opinion. The directive itself does not require such tests, the usage of the standard itself is voluntary (by the way, why did you use EN 60204, there are others). There is an IEC standard
