The EN 60825 'process' is simple. This is a 'self-declaration' route. There is no authority that I am aware of at this time (like the CDRH in the US) to which the documentation needs to be submitted.
It's as basic performing the required tests as prescribed in the standard and creating a report. Of course there a variety of documentation on the product which should be assembled. Of course this is an over-simplification, because the some of the testing (fault generation in particular) can get tedious, and the time/complexity involved is proportional to the complexity/features of the circuitry of the product. Sound engineering judgement will also need to be made in the ultimate classification of the product taking into consideration the use of the end product by what type of individual, and the installation location with regards to accessibility of the product. The classification is not only dependent upon wavelength, power, beam divergence, etc . . . Hope this helps. If you need more detail, feel free to contact me off-line. John A.
