Re: [PSES] New EU Directives

[Scott Xe]

Is there any reason behind to have LVD, EMC and RTTE directives updated in
similar time? On RTTE, the changes are quite significant.

Thanks and regards,

Scott

 For the RTTE Directive, that is being phased out and replaced with the Radio
 Equipment Directive which was published last week.
 There should be plenty of changes for radio products, including:
 · Which devices are in or out of scope.
 
 · Frequency range applicable.
 
 · Assessment procedure and use of Notified Bodies.
 
 · Notified Body actions and responsibilities.
 
 · Labelling and user manuals.
 
 · Declaration of Conformity.
 
 · Responsible parties.
 
 · Market surveillance.
 
 · Process for Class 2 devices.
 
  
 Š.to name but a few.

 I will of course investigate on my own.  But is anything shockingly changed in
 the new EMC, LVD, and RTTE Directives?  Or for most of us will it simply mean
 updating our Declarations of Conformity?

There are more than those being updated. This is for complicated legal 
reasons, and in some cases the Commission has found that the Directives 
were not effective in keeping non-compliant products out of the EU.


But the change to the RTTED is special. Its scope was found to need 
revising because it included some products that it shouldn't, but 
excluded some products, such as broadcast receivers, that it should 
include.

To align them with NLF, all the new approach directives which were
not aligned with NLF were/will be updated even if no other changes
were necessary.

For some directives such as RTTED (RED), other significant changes
were also made.

NLF itself have big impact, and I guess own brand labelers who supplied
completed product from OEMs may have hard time.

Tom
