So, RTCA/DO-160 applies for US/Canada and I assume it is valid for many
other countries worldwide.

In Europe the EMC directive does not apply (ref EMC guidelines). But which
relevant directives should be used in order to affix the CE-mark ? Only LVD
if it is supplied with voltages within the scope of the directive ?

Any proposals ?

Amund,

NAV Canada, formerly part of Transport Canada, which operates air navigation
services, is a member of RTCA. Transport Canada also adopts RTCA/DO-160 for
equipment aboard aircraft.
