Good People, The context of this subject is that I am writing a REACH/RoHS/etc questionnaire for my suppliers; and I am updating some of my Dec of Conformity and TCFs. I have noted that marking requirements specified in 768/2008/EC state:
"The presumption of conformity to a legal provision conferred by conformity to a harmonised standard should enhance recourse to compliance with harmonised standards." and also says "The CE marking should be the only marking of conformity indicating that a product is in conformity with Community harmonisation legislation. However, other markings may be used as long as they contribute to the improvement of consumer protection and are not covered by Community harmonisation legislation." Issues/Questions 1. RoHS #2 is a CE-marking directive. Conformity assessment will be based on (as far as I can determine) non-existent standards. 2. Limits have yet to be established for the four additional substances. 3. Basis of additional marks that are required (WEEE, 'e', etc). Comments ? Advice ? Maniacal laughter ? - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
