Derek, There are two marks – e-mark and E-mark. Lower case ‘e’ was used for the EU’s automotive directives (95/54/EC and 2004/104/EC) as well as the agricultural equipment directive (2015/208/EC). About 10 years back the EU switched compliance for non-ag vehicles to the UN regulatory framework and adopted Un ECE Regulation 10, currently on revision 6.
To do E-mark testing your lab needs to be approved as a Technical Service by an Approval Authority – national regulatory bodies like NSAI or VCA for example. As far as I know there are no Approval Authorities that are currently accepting applications for new Technical Services in the USA. This has a little more information: https://interferencetechnology.com/unece-regulation-10-type-approval-process/ Thanks, [cid:[email protected]] David Schaefer Operations Manager Element Materials Technology 9349 W Broadway Ave Brooklyn Park , MN 55445 , United States O +1 612 638 5136<tel:+1%20612%20638%205136> ext. 4003 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> www.element.com [cid:[email protected]]<https://www.linkedin.com/organization-guest/company/element-materials-technology?challengeId=AQFf9AemZ4SobwAAAXOQwivOsnkHiTt2ByoCkOxVQjOGOjRlivicVgYlN1dz5QXjId9bpa0keWzfVxhl8KPj78uD6-S6nfqRsg&submissionId=e49e0dc0-96a3-2516-27fa-ee2e8c42b177> [cid:[email protected]]<https://twitter.com/ElementTesting/> [cid:[email protected]]<https://elementmaterials.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3xQqm84s6IydI5D> From: DEREK WALTON [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, January 9, 2021 10:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] e-mark CAUTION:This email originated from outside of Element Materials Technology.

Good morning folks, We are positioning our EMC lab to perform e-mark testing. Reading the directive I’m a little confused if there is other action required besides being assessed to ISO 17025 by an organization such as NVLAP? Our scope will have all the test methods for the particular equipment we plan to certify. I would appreciate any guidance on the legal side of e-mark testing needed by a test lab outside of Europe.
