I'll write that correctly this time :) UNLIKE many other Directives, the R&TTE Directive REQUIRES the use of a Notified Body where Radio Spectrum Standards are NOT applied in full.
Harmonised Standards are, in effect, mandatory unless you use a NB - and even then, you can't choose not to apply them because you don't like them From: Charlie Blackham Sent: 28 November 2012 08:47 To: 'John Woodgate'; EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: RE: [PSES] EN 300 328 V1.8.1 new Adaptive equipment requirements UNLIKE many other Directives, the R&TTE Directive REQUIRES the use of a Notified Body where Radio Spectrum Standards are applied in full.

Like other Directives, the RTTE Directive contains no mandatory requirement to apply harmonized standards and carry out tests (except in the case of Full Quality Control). -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
