Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

Conformity assessment of electrical and electronic apparatus and fixed installations

Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of the equipment (apparatus or fixed installation) to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without creating unacceptable interfering electromagnetic effects on another device within the environment.

The equipment should be designed and manufactured taking into account the development of the modern technologies in this area so that:
(A) the electromagnetic disturbance generated should not exceed the level above which radio, telecommunication or other equipment cannot be used for their intended purpose;
(B) have a level of resistance to the electromagnetic disturbance which is expected when used as intended, as such resistance shall enable the equipment to operate without unacceptable deterioration of its intended use.
Conformity assessment is a process that demonstrates whether the essential requirements of the Directive are met for certain equipment.

Conformity assessment procedures:

Module A: Internal Production Control
Module B: EU type examination
Module C: Conformity with type based on internal production control

• What does the CTEC service include?

  CTEC is a notified body with identification number NB 1871 by the European Commission Official Journal for Directive 2014/30/EU Electromagnetic Compatibility and is authorized by the National Agency for Metrological and Technical Surveillance to carry out conformity assessment by applying module B: EU procedure for type examination of electrical and electronic equipment (electrical and /or electronic components) that can generate or may be affected by electromagnetic interference. Activity carried out in accordance with the requirements of Directive 2014/30/EU

• Whom does the conformity assessment service refer to?

  The obligation to verify compliance with the requirements of the Directive applies to individuals or organizations that place electrical and electronic devices on the market for the first time within the European Union.

• Benefits for you?

  The conformity assessment ensures that your device:

   

  • meets the electromagnetic compatibility requirements;
  • it gives you a competitive advantage;
  • it facilitates the free movement of the equipment in the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA).
