Lauren, According to EU Directives all products to be placed on the market must comply with current regulations and applicable standards. There are 2 major sides to your question: did the product change? Did the requirements change? You must evaluate and access your product vs new/updated standard. You can easily come up to the conclusion what no re-test is required as there were no changes in the standard affecting your unchanged product. This should be documented somewhere as part of your technical assessment and DoC should be updated to indicate new standard revision.
Mark From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Crane, Lauren Sent: Friday, August 30, 2013 1:05 PM To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: Retest because of supersded standard? Dear Experts, A test lab is suggesting that because EN61000-6-4:2007 will be superseded in 2014, all conforming products must be retested to the new standard, even if no changes have occurred in the product. Is this a fair claim?
