We have been informed by our local EMC lab that, effective 1 January 2001,
harmonics (EN 61000-3-2) and voltage fluctuations/flicker (EN 61000-3-3)
compliance is mandatory for products consuming currents less than or equal
to 16 Amps, and connected to the public low-voltage (220V to 250V, 50 Hz)
distribution systems in the European Union.
Is compliance on 1 January 2001 mandatory for products that will meet the
EMC requirements defined in EN 61326 (electrical equipment for measurement,
control and laboratory use) which has an effectivity date of 1 July 2001?
Do participants in the group agree that testing is mandatory before
1 January 2001, and have they started/completed testing their products?
