Alex, About Q2: I copy a posting from Sept. 8th on a similar question that I raised at that time. As CISPR22, 4th ed is not published in the OJ yet as an EN55022, it cannot be used yet.
***************** The EMC regulations in Australia allow compliance with any of the following for IT type equipment: a) AS/NZS 3548:1995 or AS/NZS CISPR 22:2002; or b) CISPR 22:1997 + Amdt 1:2000 or CISPR 22:1997 + Amdt 1:2000 + Amdt 2:2002; or c) EN 55022:1994 + Amdt 1:1995 + Amdt 2:1997 (until Aug 05) or EN 55022:1998 or EN 55022:1998 + Amdt 1:2000 For European standards the Australian EMC regulations specifically states the following:- "Transitional arrangements for amendments to the standards are: - Two (2) years for IEC, CISPR, AS/NZS standards at the time of publication - transitional period as published in the Official Journal of the European Communities for EN standards This means that if you choose to declare compliance to European standards now that Europe has officially revised the "cessation date" for EN 55022:1994 to Aug 05 then compliance with EN 55022:1994 is acceptable in Australia until Aug 05. In July I prepared a table identifying what standards were acceptable in Australia and until what dates they were acceptable. I have attached this information in a PDF file. Please note it reflects the then official OJ listed "cessation date" for EN 55022:1994 (i.e. Aug 03). Now the OJ has officially revised this date to Aug 05 this standard would be acceptable until then. I hope you and others in the group find the table informative and useful.
