Ed,
I would agree with you and with the other people who have responded to your
letter - I don't see any issues with not calibrating supplies and generators
as long as you are using a calibrated meter/scope/measuring device/whatever to
monitor the uncalibrated instrument. I currently work for
Intereseting, I think the ISO and in particular the lab guides indicate
simply that if equipment doesn't need calibration it is marked as such. The
other stuff obviously must have a cal sticker on it. There are all kinds of
lab supplies lying around just to power products during test etc that
Ken Dave,
If you recall, back when CE marking first became mandatory for EMC and then
for the LVD, there was a lot of confusion as to what products should be
marked. there were a wide range of inappropriately marked products on the
market. I even saw a simple terminal block CE marked for EMC
Greetings All,

Hi Dave,
I recall seeing a definition of component some years ago in reference to the
EMC Directive, along the lines of being available for sale individually AND
having an intrinsic function for the end user, in which case this would be
considered a component.
Best regards,
Dave Wilson
In some ways, I have the luxury of having a Metrology Department that
maintains the periodic calibration on all of my test equipment. OTOH, as a
customer of this Metrology Department's product, I would like to have some
control over my overhead costs. And my latest bright idea has me getting
I agree with Mr. Powell's conclusion, but I don't follow his logic. I have
a USB solid state hard drive that has a CE mark. It is memory with a
standard interface. It is totally useless by itself, it derives power from
its host. The rationale must lie somewhere else.

Dave,
If this type of component is placed on the market for distribution and/or
use as a single commercial unit and is commonly available to the general
public, the CE mark is applicable.

Dave,
I would call this a component.
The key here is to decide if it has intrinsic function (i.e. does it have a
useful propose when used alone?). If not, then it is a component.

Interesting question..here's my opinion.
I assume you are concerned only with the EMC Directive. The EMCD guidelines
document http://europa.eu.int/comm/ente
prise/electr_equipment/emc/guides/index.htm
has detailed information on application of the EMCD to components. Memory
modules

As an engineer a DIMM is definitely a component. My mother, the computer user,
would
call it an apparatus. So the answer depends on how your ox is gourd.

I would classify them as a component. I also looked at a few lying around the
lab here and none of them have a CE mark.

IMO it is component as it cannot work as a standalone device.
I'll have to check some of my memory modules when I get home tonite. I have a
bunch laying around from various builds.

As long as your asking for opinions. I don't have the definitions in front
of me for fine slicing but its a gob of silicon - just like the lowly and
gate, it doesn't alter or process anything it just remembers things and
changes its mind only when instructed to.
This might be more interesting

I'm trying to decide whether the CE MARK is applicable to this type of product.
