AFAIK EN61000-6-3 is not harmonized yet. I have a problem to access the
CENELEC web in order to check the current status of this standards.
I have a copy of CISPR/CEI-IEC 1000-6-3:1996, but I don't know if this issue
is the latest version because the IEC site is also down for the moment. In
this version they still describe 30-1000MHz radiated emission (same limits
as in 81-1) and 0.15-30MHz conducted emission (same limits as in 81-1).

I would suggest that you use EN50081-1 until it become harmonized.

Emne: Generic emissions - EN 61000-6-3



Hi Group,

I have just been touring the BSI website and discovered that the generic
emissions standard EN 50081-1 for residential, commercial and light
industrial, although current, has been superceded by EN 61000-6-3.

If anyone has got a copy of this standard already, could they kindly
advise - without resorting to replicating the entire standard on this
forum!! -
if  there are major differences to be expected which would justify switching
to this standard to avoid retesting in future - or is it a question of the
emissions
spectra now required for frequencies beyond 1GHz?

Have the limits prescribed by EN50081-1 for  the range 150kHz - 30Mhz - 1GHz
stayed the same?

Regards

Regarding products for demo's and exhibitions, Enci writes ..

You would think so wouldn't you. A small problem arises in that if you have
competitors with a CE marked product, they will make it a point to display
this and this means potential customers will be signing deals with them
and not you because they have better and more reliable information on
delivery dates. If you have no competitors, then you are OK.

CE marked or not, make sure that the product is safe and further, that it
will not go bang when connected to a supply with everybody else's non
compliant stuff. It might be an idea to take a large filter if one is
affordable.

There is nothing quite as memorable as a product that explodes at an
exhibition. In fact, it makes the exhibition worth attending the next time,
and considering it has been the talk of the industry since the last time,
you
will get an unusually large crowd, and a quick check through their
business cards will reveal they are competitors and not customers
if the former exist!

Having said this much, I feel it important that I state that these
experiences
were not personal to me or my current or previous employers. That's the
truth.

Best regards

- Chris

Well, I found the guide I was looking for, and the key issue is the
"placing on the market" or "taking into service". The guide clearly states
demonstrating at an exhibition is not considered to be placing on the
market. It also says a notice is required, as descibed below. Therefore the
application of CE Marking or lack thereof is meaningless.
