Thanks guys!!

John also confirmed several IEC Standards.  Most seem to be geared toward 
Radiocommunications, distress and safety systems.


It's new to me as well.  When I learn more I'll share.

Subject: RE: [PSES] Marine Equipment for CE


Good morning



I'm not at all an expert of marine equipment safety, but  here are a few 
comments:



-        Annex I of the Marine Equipment Directive (and its predecessor) calls 
for the Wheelmark, and not the CE marking.



Therefore you could check out the Notified Bodies for that Directive.



-       As for other equipment, I think it might be that equipment safety is 
also addressed more by the relevant maritime classification societies (Lloyds 
Register of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas, American Bureau of Shipping, 
Germanische Lloyd, etc) as they are ones that effectively permit what can and 
cannot be installed on the ships which they register and insure. So you might 
want to check some of those out as well because they might allow the "normal" 
equipment safety standards to be used but with additional modifications to deal 
with the more severe maritime environmental conditions.



-       One standard that does seem to come up a lot is IEC/EN 60945 "Maritime 
navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - General requirements 
- Methods of testing and required test results"

Hi,



I found the Marine Equipment Directive 2014/90/EU.



For Standards it refers to IMO Standards.  In searching through the IMO 
Standards, they seem to be more guidelines for how to use equipment vs 
evaluating the equipment for safety, etc.



Any guidance in finding Standards for Marine Equipment would be appreciated.



Best Regards,



John Allen
