At Horst's suggestion, this is to advise that EPSMA's useful publication
(n.b., EPSAM above is a typo for EPSMA) "CE Marking on Power Supplies" is
reproduced on our (Claude Lyons Limited) Web site.
For your reference, this is a copy of the relevant section of the s.e.e.c
(sci.engr.electrical.compliance) newsgroup FAQ which I maintain:
CE MARKING ON POWER SUPPLIES - Guidance from the EPSMA
Available free of charge from
Matthew Towers - EPSMA Secretariat
The European Power Supply Manufacturers Association

This document is now also available at
http://www.lyons.demon.co.uk/epsma.html
The s.e.e.c FAQ itself is archived at
http://world.std.com/~techbook/compliance_faq.html
I will be very happy to add the guidance about harmonics mentioned above
when available.
