That concept existed under the R&TTE Directive, but does not exist under the RED * The whole product is “radio equipment” * Your product contains a module that another company has assessed compliant with the RED in whatever config/jig they assessed it * Unless you have done a full assessment of the whole product against the RED, you cannot CE mark it * If you can’t CE mark it, then you should follow applicable rules for non CE marked equipment The OFCOM link is for short term use – but for all licensed and unlicensed radios still in development where full compliance has not yet been demonstrated Regards Charlie Charlie Blackham Sulis Consultants Ltd Tel: +44 (0)7946 624317 Web: https://sulisconsultants.com/ Registered in England and Wales, number 05466247 From: Rodriguez, Daniel (ESP) <drodrig...@ecolab.com> Sent: 16 March 2020 09:30 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: Re: [PSES] Radio Equipment Directive radio equipment at trade fairs, demonstrations Thank you Andreas but this link is for the short term use of frequencies that normally requires a license. My question is about testing equipment that is not fully compliance with Radio Equipment Directive but has a radio transmitter inside that is compliance with harmonized frequencies and power transmission limit. Do we still require to notify the authorities? Which is the link? Or if the radio transmitter inside is compliance for the harmonized frequencies is not needed? OFCOM link provided by Charlie (Thank you!) seems to be related also to short term use of frequencies Thank you for your answers Kind Regards / Saludos cordiales / Mit freundlichen Grüßen Daniel Rodríguez From: Graevinghoff Andreas (ETAS/NE) <andreas.graevingh...@etas.com<mailto:andreas.graevingh...@etas.com>> Sent: Friday, 13 March 2020 17:49 To: Rodriguez, Daniel (ESP) <drodrig...@ecolab.com<mailto:drodrig...@ecolab.com>>; EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG<mailto:EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> Subject: RE: [PSES] Radio Equipment Directive radio equipment at trade fairs, demonstrations Caution: This email originated from outside of the organization.

I though that if you can use the harmonized frequencies at the limit power, is not needed authorization by authorities… Does anyone experience in contacting spectrum authorities in the country like UK or Germany for asking for authorization of a demonstration of radio equipment? Which are the documentation and date that we need to provide? Is there a webpage (for example in UK and Germany) or it is just asking by email to the spectrum authorities? Thank you for your feedback! 1.5 Special measures regarding radio equipment at trade fairs, etc. According to Chapter 2.3 of the Blue Guide, placing on the market is considered not to take place where a product is displayed or operated under controlled conditions at trade fairs, exhibitions or demonstrations. Article 9.2 of the RED contains the following details on the conditions applicable at trade fairs, exhibitions or demonstrations: A visible sign clearly indicates that such radio equipment may not be made available on the market or put into service until it has been brought into conformity with this Directive; Demonstration of radio equipment may only take place provided that adequate measures, as prescribed by Member States, have been taken to avoid harmful interference, electromagnetic disturbances and risk to the health or safety of persons or of domestic animals or to property. If the radio equipment contains a transmitter, the relevant national spectrum authorities have to be contacted if a manufacturer wishes to demonstrate the use of such equipment Kind Regards / Saludos cordiales / Mit freundlichen Grüßen Daniel Rodríguez CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail communication and any attachments may contain proprietary and privileged information for the use of the designated recipients named above.
