As someone noted recently, the DoC information means something to very few people and most don't even care except us homologation people. What's required is good and what isnt can be good to, depending on the end user. No one makes/ships the same product thus none will have the same DoC's. Brians approach may be useful in his product line and business, perhaps his customers understand the intent and meaning of the DoC. Most people dont even know or care about the 1000's of labels on a CRT monitor, or how they got there...But we know the reasons, its our job to know. regards, Richard

I know many out there who would not agree with this approach. Brian, I am one of them. EC Declaration of Conformity is not for the end user, it is for the authorities. By including all kind of "unnecessary" information in this legal document, we may unintentionally create a situation in which the end user starts demanding more information to be included in it. Personally, I do not want to see DoC to be gradually "converted" to a test report.
