Kevin, EN55103-1 & EN55103-2 are the product specific standards for pro audio equipment, if it's not professional equipment then the generics EN50081-1, EN50082-1 will do. Don't forget the transmitter is only allowed to transmit at one frequency! and can be interfered with so therefore the directive not only applies to this type of product but you may need to find a competent body to type approve it.
Hope this helps. Ian Ball Dedicated Micros UK ---------- From: Kevin Richardson[SMTP:[email protected]] Sent: 14 December 1998 08:44 To: EMC-PSTC - IEEE Subject: EMC Requirements for Microphones Hello, Does anyone have any information regarding how microphones are covered by European EMC requirements and regulations. I understand 89/392/EEC does not mention microphones but as most regulations/standards do not provide a definitive listing of all products types covered I am wondering if this really means microphones are not covered by the EMC regulations/Directives etc. I am interested in finding out if there are any EMC requirements for any types of microphones (ie dynamic, condenser and radio). Regarding radio microphones and their receiver units: I do not believe there would be any requirements for the radio microphone itself as it is an international transmitter and therefore not intended to be covered but what about the receiver unit? Are the receiver units and the radio microphone treated as a "system" and because the "system" involves an intentional transmitter EMC is not required or is the receiver unit treated separately as a sound/audio receiver ie CISPR13/EN55013 ? Any help/information would be appreciated.
