Dear Selva, Can you tell us a little more about your product? You mention that it is ITE class B. Does it have a transmitter section? If not, then you should be aware that class B IT equipment falls under the Declaration of Conformity rules (See 47 CFR 15.19, I think...) There is no need to

Pierre, It depends on how fast you want your FCCID. If you can wait for FCC to review the package and issue you the certificate then by all means submit directly but you can expect to wait 6 weeks or more. If you want to get your product to market quickly I would suggest the TCB route. They will

Pierre, If the lab at which your testing was conducted is designated as a Conformity Assessment Body(CAB) under the EMC Sector of the US - EU Mutual Recognition Agreement then you need not submit anything at all to the FCC. You may simply issue a Declaration of Conformity and ship your product

2002-07-01 Thread Gert Gremmen
It is definitely not a requirement for EMC, regardless of the standard. The ground connection has no function in EMC but for the extremely low frequencies. I believe that is a generic design principle to ALWAYS connect protective ground first and disconnect last when connecting any connector

Muriel I doubt the FDA or EPA would have any authority over radio waves since it is quite obviously in the FCC's jurisdiction. I do not remember if these documents address your query directly, but they address what is considered acceptable radiation and safe distances when installing

Non-metallic tables.

I am looking for a non-metallic table I can put equipment on for pre-pre-compliance checks. Was thinking of Rubbermaid Corp or the likes, but first blush says they don't have anything sufficiently close. Anybody our there buy rather than make the chamber test tables?

EN60950 functional earthing.

Group, Regarding Functional earthing requirements for Class II equipment. Is there a general requirement for the functional earth in an equipments power connector to follow the make first break last rule with regards to EMC (EN55022) and Safety. Thanks in advance Jon Jones ATL telecom.

Re: EN60950 functional earthing.

My recollection is (without reading the standard) that the make first / break last requirement only applies to connectors operated by the user or other non trained persons. Then it should also seem reasonable that the requirement would not apply to a product meeting ALL class II requirements.
