I read in !emc-pstc that Gert Gremmen <[email protected]> wrote (in <[email protected]>) about 'subcontracted parts - compliance with EN's' on Thu, 26 Sep 2002:

Careful with the terminology there! A test house CANNOT issue a Declaration of Conformity; only the manufacturer can do that. A test-house can issue a 'certificate of conformity', but that is a private document between test-house and manufacturer and relates only to the actual sample(s) tested. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
