It is my understanding that the protection requirements apply, and it is also necessary for the technical documentation to be available, but that it is not necessary to actually put the logo on the product or prepare a D of C.
I have a liaison committee minute from HSE which appears to state, in effect, that CE marking takes precedence over the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations; in other words you can't claim exemption from CE marking on the basis of equipment falling under PUWER. However, it's not entirely clear from the document the extent to which one has to go. For reasons connected with another project I am involved in I have today officially asked the HSE for their position on this matter, and when I receive a reply I will post details to the list. Regards Nick.
