Hi Group, 1.) General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories (ISO/IEC 17025 : 1999); Trilingual version EN ISO/IEC 17025 : 2000 This is a standard used in accrediting/assessing test labs.
2.) EU Directives (new approach) do normally not specific technical details as in the harmonized standards, listed in the official EU Gazette OJ, they rather give legal/regulatory guidance. 3.) Question: What type of product/environment/application are you dealing with? kind regards Diethard Dr. Diethard Hansen EES President, Principal Consultant, Trainer US Senior NARTE certif.

April 2004 13:03 To: [email protected] Subject: Fw: EN 50371 EN 50371 (Generic standard to demonstrate the compliance of low power electronic and electrical apparatus with the basic restrictions related to human exposure to electromagnetic fields - 10 MHz to 300 GHz) is harmonized under the R&TTE Directive and has a DOW of October 1, 2004. This document provides exposure limits but does not provide test methods. It references two other documents (EN ISO/IEC 17025 and Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC of 12 July 1999) Neither of these documents have test methods nor do they reference any documents that do. In this case, what test methods are valid? Or can you use any test method that you deem to be valid as long as you document the test method used?
