What has never been clear to me is whether the manufacturer should also be
established in the community or whether this is only applicable to the

I have a question to clarify..
Is it to be understood that the EC DofC can be signed by the US manufacturer,

An experienced EMC test technician told me it's easier to fail the EUT to
put all I/O cables together in the capacitive coupling box than to deal
with them one by one. I think his experience is consistent with general EMC

I'm working on a project that will ship to Japan and requires a motor
starting capacitor. Would any one know if there are requirements that

This is not yet prohibited by the code. Therefore I suppose agencies are
somewhat obliged to approve a product provided it has the proper warnings.
You can resolve the situation by moving the existing wiring into an additional
