I am not an expert, but..... 1. D of C signatory 2. D of C signatory 3.

Who is responsible for identifying the appropriate EMI / EMC standards for a product to comply with, for placing the product in different countries. Is it the manufacturer of the product or the accredited test lab in which the product final certification testing is being done and the report is being compiled or both? 2. Who is responsible to ensure that the product is complying with all the necessary provisions / sections of a standard. Is it the manufacturer or the test lab or both? 3. What will happen if something is found wrong at a later date, either a wrong standard is followed or the testing is insufficient to prove the compliancy with all the necessary clauses of the specified standards? 4. How the regulatory agencies (FCC / CE etc.) are ensuring that every product that is placed in the market is complying to the necessary clauses of appropriate standards? Sincerely K.Balasubramanian Sr.Engineer, Hardware. ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
