(the German Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers' Association) on CE Marking. Since this is an 8.5 x 11 inch copy of a European A4 format document, all information w.r.t. where to where to get copies and date of publication have been stripped off. The guide considers five of the most important New Approach Directives: Low voltage (LVD), Electromagnetic Comaptibility (EMC), Telecom Terminal Equipment (TTE), Machinery (MS) and Construction. Many of the most frequently asked questions in this forum are answered. It gives the Fundamentals of EC Marking; talks about the EC Directives that require it; the Attestation content of the EC Marking; which products are subject to the marking; when the marking becomes obligatory; what the mark means; whether you can put on other marks as well (it even tells you that there is a disagreement between German and EU officials on this issue); etc., etc. It also provides you with copiesof forms N, N-c, N-QU, BM, BM-QP and ZS, the attestation of conformity in accord with the different modules. It is a 50-page booklet and I don't know whether it is copyrighted. Therefore, I have more than one reason for not wanting to spend my meagre resources on the distribution of this jewel. However, if anybody knows how to get this booklet and could inform this forum, I think we should make it prerequisite reading before joining this forum.
