Hi David,

Since your product is SELV it does not need to meet the LVD BUT you have
still to consider the General Safety Product Directive (catch all Safety
Directive) and also the Product Liability Directive. I would always
recommend you have your ITE products tested for Safety to EN60950.

Note: If the ITE product has an analogue modem then it requires to meet the
LVD via the harmonised standard EN60950

Kind Regards
ALEX

Subject: CE without LVD?



Hello Group,

A ITE product (not ours!) is powered by an CE marked external ac-dc power
supply and has only SELV ports.  I believe this product must be tested to EN
60950, and that in the CE Declaration of Conformity it must declare
conformity to the LVD via EN 60590.  

It is being suggested that this product does not need safety testing and
does not need to include the reference to EN 60950 and the LVD in the CE
DoC, since it is SELV circuits only.  

Can you provide me with references to back my point of view?

Thanks,

David.
