All electric and electronic products designed and produced for export to the European Economic Area (EEA) must now conform to the new EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, which came into force in 1996. Under these regulations, all devices designated for free trade must satisfy certain minimum requirements regarding safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
CE Marking for the EMC Directive is a pivotal guide to achieving certification. It examines the requirements imposed by the EMC Directive and the various routes, which must be taken to achieve full compliance.
This comprehensive volume explains how companies can certify their own products, saving both time and money. It contains the complete text of the EMC Directive and answers frequently asked questions on the certification process. Practical examples and well-organized diagrams and drawings make this book invaluable to the electrical and electronic product designer or manufacturer.
