Why do electrical/electronic devices need to meet the requirements of the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU?
Modern EEE devices are used in diverse work environments, including those characterized by significant electromagnetic disturbances. In such challenging conditions, devices must exhibit a high degree of immunity to disturbances to ensure uninterrupted and reliable operation. Additionally, these same devices emit varying levels of disturbances into their working environment, potentially causing improper operation of other equipment in the vicinity. Therefore, devices need to minimize the level of disturbances they generate while maximizing their resistance to external factors.
Which devices are subject to the requirements of the directive.
The EMC Directive covers the vast majority of devices, regardless of their power source. It applies to all electronic and electrical devices, systems, and installations that may cause electromagnetic disturbances or whose operation may be affected or hindered by such disturbances.
How and where to test products for EMC Directive requirements.
The Research and Development Center RCC offers a comprehensive range of services including electromagnetic immunity testing, as well as electromagnetic compatibility testing for conducted emissions of consumer products, industrial products, and radiated emissions from lighting devices. We possess state-of-the-art research equipment with valid calibration certificates and dedicated software, enabling us to conduct tests in full compliance with standards dictated by relevant norms.
We also conduct part of our research on-site at the client's premises.
