HI Horst Haug and Patty Elliot
Looking true previous EMC mail I'll noticed your replay's:

In view of your replay's, I have a simple question:
In what priority order are the products checked?
As you all know for the moment (in Belgium, and be sure in your country
it exists to) a lot of political, commercial practices and other special
PROTECTIONs are discovered and examined by several commissions.
Those protections are ranging from corrupts to gentle influences...
So again In what priority order are the products checked? and are those
checked in an unbiased priority order?
I know, good products don't have in theory not to worry about it, but
are they all good or just are some ignored?
Sorry Horst Haug and Patty Elliot but I disagree with your statements.
I don't own black money to have favors when my product is not that
good, do you?
On the other side, who will pay for all those overdone and unrequired
controls? You and me, don't forget it.
Do you not trust the honesty of your competitors? No, read back above
considerations and find out if you solve them with your remarks.
To my opinion, only complains due to bad influences on (interference)
or influences from (immunity) other products have to be taken in
consideration for control of conformity to the rules.
Isn't that in fact the basic and general purpose of the EMC rules:
- Protection against pollution and
- Assurance of reliable operation in that polluted world?

the notified body has the duty to check, if the products on the
market comply to the EMC directive.
I like the idea to control the market, because it avoids advantages
for manufacturer, which does not take care of the CE-mark and just
stick the label on and ship without testing. It also forces the test
houses to keep the quality level high.

There does not have to be a complaint against your equipment in order for a
Notified Body to examine it. European authorities have the right to take
off-the-shelf products and examine them for compliance to the directives.
The Declaration of Conformity that is shipped with your equipment is a legal
document that states your product complies with the directive(s), and the
authorities have the right to verify the conformance.
