RE: French Customs demand EC Declaration!

Sorry I don't have a legal type answer for you, although I agree that it is against the spirit of the directive. I just though I would expand the controversy and ask if you know if they are also demanding that declarations for other directives like the LVD are also included with the shipment?

Hi Leslie, You may try a very convenient hand-held RF analyzer, Site Master (http://www.global.anritsu.com/products/test/rfmicrowireless/s100_s200a_s300 a.html), to determine whether the cable is 50 or 75 ohm. The price of Site Master is much less than Time Domain Reflector. Barry Ma

French Customs demand EC Declaration!

Recently French customs have started to demand that shipments of CE marked electronic products are accompanied by a copy of the EC Declaration of Conformity to the EMC Directive. Companies are having product held up and are being fined. This seems contrary to the spirit of the single market and

Hi Kevin, Most of what you have said is correct except I believe the authorities here consider all power cords (except for HAR marked) to be declared whether they are detachable or not. This is how we viewed the situation when I was involved in regulatory policing some years back, and I would be

Bai: If you have a Network Analyzer, just connect the cable to the two port of the analyzer through a BNC-SMA adpator. Measure the reflection coefficient (S11 or S22) and the 75 ohm cable should have a larger reflection. That's my expensive way of doing it.:-) Alternatively, if the two cables
