The generally perceived wisdom is that equipment for own or in-house use, does not require CE marking, but must still comply with the essential safety and EMC requirements.
However in the UK, we have the Provision and Use of Work Equipment (PUWER98) regulations and these have been interpreted to require that such own or in-house equipment, must also be CE marked. This contradicts the UK implementation of the Low Voltage Directive, The Electrical Equipment Safety Regulations, which specifically states that electrical equipment manufactured for the maker's own use need not carry the CE logo. Has anyone formed an opinion on the subject that they care to share?
