Brian, It sounds to me like he just wants a 'badge' for the sake of it. I would advise him that he would be much better advised to get an NRTL safety approval as being more relevant to his application!! As you observe, there is no requirement for an FCC ID.

From: Brian O'Connell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 24 April 2007 16:31 To: [email protected] Subject: FCC IC mark requirements A customer wants an FCC 'ID' mark on a linear wall wart that is intended to recharge a power tool. As the unintentional radiator (Pt 15, subpt B, sec 15.101) indicates that "All other devices" require a mfr's 'Verification', the FCC ID requirement would not apply. Also as the exempted devices in sec 15.103 only apply to a digital device, I cannot use the appliance exemption. Other than the emissions limits, is anyone aware of special FCC marking requirements for import into the U.S. of wall-wart power supplies that will not connect to an IT or ISM device ? If the customer always correct, am I always wrong ? thanks and luck, Brian - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
