Hi Miguel Yes, all standards listed in the OJ list of "harmonized standards" qualify for self certification.
That includes all generic standards. You may download a list on many sites among ours. Self certification also includes signing a liability declaration and of course is no "easy way" to obtain a EC Declaration of Conformity. A NB or CB or ordinary EMC lab might help you in selecting cheaper ways of testing, and prevent you to invest large to huge amounts in test equipment and experience.
