Re: SV: Selection of Directives
I read in !emc-pstc that am...@westin-emission.no wrote (in LFENJLPMMJB mhpeibnilaepjcbaa.am...@westin-emission.no) about 'SV: Selection of Directives', on Sat, 5 Jan 2002: I wish I had seen this magical matrix, but unfortunately I have not. I assume that a matrix like this would be very complex and comprehensive. No, a matrix is perhaps the best way of handling the subject Example: An ITE would have to qualify for EMCD and maybe RTTE, RTTE only in respect of any relevant interface. maybe also LVD if the voltages are within the scope Yes. Quite normal. and if it is placed in an explosive area then the ATEX directive might also apply. Well, it would apply. A lot of maybe's and if's No, the matter seems quite clear. What uncertainty do you have in mind? ... I think we have to gain knowledge about a lot of the directives in order to know if a product falls within it. A matrix can not include that type of experience I think.

Re: SV: Selection of Directives
Dear All A page on our website www.cherryclough.com has a useful list of EU directives relating to electronic products (and not just the CE marking ones) and the URLs where they and lists of their relevant standards can be downloaded from. Not every possible directive is covered, but I think most of the relevant ones are. As for a directives matrix - what a wonderful idea, but I've never seen one and don't expect to - it would be just too complicated.
