Hello All, We have three products that we sell in USA. We are looking at getting these approved for sale in the EU. Our famous certification house says they do not create CB Reports for this kind of product. We are unfamiliar with any type of standards in the ROW for these products.
So, we are looking to find out what standards would apply, either EU-wide, or are there specific country requirements for these kinds of products? Here is a brief explanation of the three products: 1. POTS telephone surge protector. The current model is a passive device with a pair of RJ-11 jacks for telephone in & out and a ground wire terminal. Listed by UL to UL497A, Standard for Protectors for Communication Circuits. 2. CATV/Antenna surge protector. The current model is a passive device with a pair of F-connectors and a ground wire terminal. Listed by UL to UL497B, Standard for Protectors for Data Communications and Fire Alarm Circuits 3. LAN / Ethernet surge protector. The current model is a passive device with a pair of RJ-45 jacks for Ethernet (CAT5) in & out and a ground wire terminal. Listed by UL to UL497B. These are all passive devices, no power supply required. We are in California and would appreciate any comments related to what EU standards would apply and what test houses might be a good choice to getting these approvals. Your comments and advice will be well appreciated. Thank you.
