Brian,
Here's the differences in a small nutshell:
FCC CE
------------------------------------
Radiated Emissions x x
Conducted Emissions x x
Immunity x
There are differences in frequency and emission limits between FCC Part 15 and
EN55022 (or CISPR22). However, the FCC does allow testing to the limits of
CISPR22 provided a couple of conditions are met. As far as immunity goes,
EN50082-1 or 2 requires a mulititude of tests.
Well, the nutshell has now become full. This has been a very simple
description
of the differences with virtually no details.
To become more aware of the requirements of each in more detail, a seminar
might be in order for you. There are a number of organizations that provide
this service on different levels.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Ron Pickard

Can someone out there tell a poor Englishman the basic differences
between the requirements of the FCC rules and the requirements to
comply with the EEC emc directive.
i.e. Do you have to do immunity testing and ESD tests to comply with
the FCC rules that sort of thing.
