Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive 89/336/EEC as amended by 91/31/EEC and 93/68/EEC.
UK Regulations SI 1992/2372 as amended by SI 1994/3080 and SI 1995/3180
Since January 1 1996, most electrical and electronic products to be placed on the market in the EEA (European Economic Area) must comply to the following requirements as detailed in the EMC Directive:
Products must be constructed so that they do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference and are not unduly affected by electromagnetic interference. Certain radio-transmitting equipment must be subjected to EC type – examination by a notified body.
This process will ultimately lead to affixing of a CE mark on the product when coupled with all other relevant requirements of applicable new approach directives.
