What it means to have CE Mark?
When the CE Mark is affixed, it means that the products conform to EMC(Electromagnetic Compatibility) Directive and other relevant Directives that are relevant to the products. Many electrical appliances also have to conform to Low Voltage Directive. Electrical toys will have to conform to Toy Safety Directive.
The EC declaration of conformity must include components like :
a) Description of the products.
b) A reference to the specifications under which conformity is declared.
The reference to the specifications does not necessarily mean that you have to test these specifications. Three scenarios are apparent.
i) The product intrinsically meets the requirements of the Directive and does not need testing
. Most electronic products are not able to follow this option.
ii) Declaration is make on existing test results. If the products already conform to existing standards such as FCC for emissions and IEC 801 for immunity, then you may be confident that the product will meet the appropriate harmonized standards without further testing.
iii) Test fully to the harmonized standards or choose the technical file route. For complex and new products, this will be costly but is essential.
c) Signatory to bind the manufacturer or his representative.
d) where necessary, reference to the EC type examination certificate for radio transmitters.
