Frank, Getting started in this is a lot of work. For a product such as
yours the requirements are similar but not the same for each market. The work
starts with an understanding of the technical requirements that need to be
applied to the product in the development phase which will be demonstrated
during the evaluation phase by the test labs for safety and EMC requirements
etc. This work becomes the backbone for the Technical File which supports each
certification needed.
Too bad you missed the IEEE PSES ISPCE symposium this week in
San Jose; the Compliance 101 track is aimed at folks just like you. You might
work in an area that has a local PSES chapter (check the IEEE PSES website for
local chapters) where you can network with others doing just what you are
doing.
There is a lot of useful info on this forum (you have obviously
found your way here already). Keep up the good work.

Hi Dave,
Thank you for your response.
Product is light industrial laboratory equipment and market is US, europe,
asia, korea. Trying to figure out which entities I contact for CoC, CE Mark,
etc. Tried searching online for a good sources to use as information I can feed
back to team, but havent had success yet.

Frank,
Answer to many these questions depend on what market(s) you are selling into.
Your test lab will provide you with their prerequisites needed for a given
test/certification. These should be identified in their quotes. Generally
minimum requirements for safety evaluation/certifications are critical
components list with all component info, schematics, and safety risk
assessment. Your NRTL will dictate some of this for the NA market. The ‘Blue
Guide’ on the implementation of EU product rules will help answer questions on
what you need to do with your documentation and certifications for the EU
market. The EU directives themselves define some of the documentation
requirements for the individual directives.

Subject: [PSES] EMC and safety basics (process documentation)
Hi Everyone,
Looking for some guidance and mentoring because I am currently in charge of
compliance and regulatory division on my own.
Any knowledge provided will be greatly appreciated.
Have some knowledge on process for EMC testing, but need guidance for,
* What to do after test complete and have test report in hand
* documentation
* application for certificate (?)
* self declaration, etc.
* Maintaining certification
Would also like to get some information regarding safety documentation as well,
* Things to provide test lab before testing
* BOM (?)
* schematic
* LoCC
* What to do after test conclude with report in hand
* Documentation process,
* LVD
* Machinery directive
* etc
--
Thank you and best regards.
- Frank
