How to get the EMC Directive Standards on Electromagnetic Compatibility for Europe

Document Center’s List of the EMC Directive Standards for Electromagnetic Compatability is a handy way to review and order the EMC Standards you need for products intended for the European market.  The list includes all the standards that are part of the New Approach Directive 2004/108/EC for EMC requirements.  You can review the list and use the links for each standard to order the documents you need from us.

The “New Approach”  refers to the fact that legislation only provides for the Essential Safety Requirements that products must meet, with the goal of promoting  free  movement  within the  European Market. The technical specifications of  the  products are laid down in the harmonized  standards, whose application is indeed not mandatory but confers nonetheless to the products the presumption of conformity to the Essential Safety Requirements set out in the Directive.

Use of the standards on the Harmonized List for any of these New Approach Directives can save a great deal of time and money, as well as reduction of liability issues, when developing or marketing product into the European Union.
