Hello Regan, you may find statistics of the German market surveillance authority Bundesnetzagentur for EMC, R&TTE and RED at
https://www.bundesnetzagentur.de/DE/Sachgebiete/Telekommunikation/Verbraucher/WeitereThemen/Marktueberwachung/marktueberwachung.html?nn=268472 However, presentations are available in German language only. The RAPEX web site also provides some statistics and reports at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/consumers_safety/safety_products/rapex/alerts/repository/content/pages/rapex/reports/index_en.htm Kind regards, Bernd Von: Regan Arndt <reganar...@gmail.com> Gesendet: Dienstag, 30.

The only thing I can find on the web that has something close is from Yvonne Halpaus of QNET, LLC where she recently published a guide on CE marking in 2015. An excerpt is below: Findings in earlier reports show that 37,600 items of equipment tested in Switzerland showed 1,100 cases of CE Conformity problems. Of 3,962 items that were subjected to rigorous measurements, a high proportion of the devices were found defective (976 altogether) and that none of these met the EMC specified requirements. In 23 cases a sales ban was imposed and legal proceedings were launched. Two other Member States also revealed problems when testing against the EMC & Machinery Directive: 33% failed the EMC tests, 47% did not meet the Machinery Directive formal rules and 89% had technical non-conformities. These negative findings were not the result of regular surveillance mechanisms, 58% was based on examinations triggered by accidents, 33.3% following inspection of equipment installation, 8.5% based on complaints from competing manufacturers and 0.2% following visits to trade fairs. Thanks for sharing any information you have. I'm wanting to update my CE marking training slides with some good solid facts.
