Update on two regulations
Dear all
First of all, a very Happy New Year to all the readers of this blog.
I thought I would start 2009 with a brief summary of two regulations in the news:
Regulation 765/2008/EC specifies the rules for conformity assessment bodies that test and assess equipment for compliance with such as EMC, LVD and RoHS in the future. It also sets a framework for market surveillance and provides the framework for CE marking and control of imports.
Regulation 768/2008/EC defines what manufacturers, importers and distributors need to do to demonstrate compliance with CE mark directives such as EMC, LVD and RoHS in the future. It describes conformity assessment procedures such as what should be included in technical files and declarations of conformity.
Suspect we will hear more about these with the potential impact on the RoHS Directive.
