Can someone clarify the EC EMC approval for mobile phones? My understanding is that a GSM phone would be tested for conformity to the EMC DIrective under the EC type-examination route. A Notified Body would then issue a certificate of approval. The UK DTI's guidance notes state unambiguously that radio transmission equipment deosn't have the option of following the other routes (harmonised standard or TCF).
However I've now heard that a new phone might be tested using a TCF (for the usual good reason fo having a lot of variants). How could this be? Or is there a TCF sub-part within type-approval? Clarity welcomed. --Paul Reilly-- PA Consulting Group Cambridge UK, Tel UK + 1763-261222 [email protected]
