  3. I (a). PROLOGUE This paper concerns the electromagnetic compatibility [EMC] of equipmentregulated by the new Directive2004/108/EC, whose provisions aim to ensure that the internal market will function by requiring equipment to comply with an adequate level of electromagnetic compatibility. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  4. I (b). PROLOGUE • Equipment, complying with this Directive, will function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment, withoutintroducing intolerable electromagnetic disturbances to other equipment, and it will have a level of immunity to operate in the presence of electromagnetic disturbance, without degradation. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  5. II (a). EMC LEGISLATION • The new Directive 2004/108/EC [1],referred to here as the Directive, is the EMC Directive of the European Parliament, which has repealed EMC Directive 89/336/EEC [2]. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  6. II (b). EMC LEGISLATION TheDirective requires that, for the • transitional periodMember Stateswill not impede the placing on the market or the putting into service of equipment which is in compliancewith the provisions of Directive 89/336/EEC, and placed on the market before20 July 2009, and for the • transposition, the Member States will adopt and publish the laws, regulations and administrative provisions, necessary to comply with it by 20 January 2007, will inform the Commission, and will apply its provisions as from20 July 2007. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  7. II (c). EMC LEGISLATION • The Greek adaptationto this Directive [Common Ministerial Resolution] ΚΥΑ50268/5137/07, referred to here as KYA, is published in [ Government’s Gazette] ΦΕΚ 1853Β/13-09-2007[3]. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  8. II (d). EMC LEGISLATION The design and manufacture of equipment is subject to • essential requirements in relation to the electromagnetic compatibility, and the • compliance of equipment with the relevant harmonised standards [whose references are published in the Official Journal of the European Union], will raise a presumption, on the part of the Member States of • conformity with the essential requirements, which are • protection requirements for equipment and • specific requirements for fixed installations. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  9. II (e). EMC LEGISLATION For the free movement of equipment, the requirements of the Directive will not prevent the application, in any Member State, of the following special measures concerning the putting into service or use of equipment: • measures to overcome an existing or predicted electromagnetic compatibilityproblem at a specific site, • measures taken for safety reasonsto protect public telecommunications networks or receiving or transmitting stations when usedfor safety purposes [safeguarding human life or property], in well-defined spectrum situations. Member States will notify those special measures to the Commission and to other Member States, and when they are accepted they will be published, by the Commission, in the Official Journal of the European Union. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  10. III (a).DEFINITION OF EQUIPMENT According to the Directive, • equipment means any apparatus or fixed installation, and • apparatus means any finished appliance or combination thereof made commercially available as a single functional unit, intended for the end user and liable to generate electromagnetic disturbance, or the performance of which is liable to be affected by such disturbance, and for the purpose of the Directive, • components sub-assemblies and mobile installations are deemed to be apparatus, • fixed installation means a particular combination of several types of apparatus and, where applicable, other devices, which are assembled, installed and intended to be used permanently at a predefined location. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  11. III (b). DEFINITION OF EQUIPMENT The Directive willnot apply to: radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment, since they are covered by Directive 1999/5/EC, aeronautical products, parts and appliances, as referred to in Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 of the European Parliament, radio amateur apparatus, which is not commercially available, equipment which is inherently benign in terms of electromagnetic compatibility, equipment for which the essential requirementsare more specifically laid down by other Community Directives. The Directive does not deal with the safety of equipment, since that is dealt with by separate Community or national legislation. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  12. IV (a).ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS For the protection requirements, equipment is so designed and manufactured, having regard to the state of the art, as to ensure that: • thegenerated electromagnetic disturbancedoes not exceed the level above which radio and telecommunications equipment or other equipment cannot operate as intended, where disturbance isdefined by the Directive, asany electromagnetic phenomenon which may degrade the performance of equipment, and which may beelectromagnetic noise, an unwanted signal or a change in the propagation medium itself, and, Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  13. IV (b). ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS • equipment has a level of immunityto the electromagnetic disturbanceto be expected in its intended use, which allows it to operate without unacceptable degradation of its intended use, and according to the Directive, • immunity is the ability of equipment to perform as intended without degradation in the presence of electromagnetic disturbance, which may be electromagnetic noise, or an unwanted signal. • The specific requirements for a fixed installation is that, it will be installed applying good engineering practices, which will be documented, and the documentation will be held by the person responsibleat the disposalof the relevant national authorities for inspection purposes. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  14. V(a).CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT PROCEDURE The manufacturer, for the compliance of apparatus with the essential requirements, will perform an EMC assessment of the apparatus, on the basis of the relevant phenomena, with a view to meeting the protection requirements. The correct application of all the relevant harmonised standards will be equivalent to carrying out of the EMC assessment. • A technical documentation [for KYA a technical file], is drawn up by the manufacturer, or his authorized representative in the Community, whichprovides evidence of the conformity of the apparatus with the essential requirements, and whosecompliance is attestedby the issue of anEC declaration of conformity. Further, at the discretion of the manufacturer, compliance of apparatus may be completed, by presenting the technical documentation to a notified body with the request for an assessment, of specified aspects of the essential requirements. Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  15. V(b). CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT PROCEDURE • The notified body will review the technical documentation, will assess if these requirements have been met, andif compliance is confirmed, will issue a statement, which will be limited to those aspects of the essential requirements assessed, confirming compliance. Following themanufacturer will add the statement of the notified body to the technical documentation Compliance of Equipment in Accordance with an Adequate Level of Electromagnetic Compatibility

  16. V(c). CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT PROCEDURE • Themanufacturer established within the Community, holds the technical documentation and the EC declaration of conformity at the disposal of the Competent Authorities, for at least ten (10) years and • in the case that neither the manufacturernor his authorised representativeis establishedwithin the Community, this obligation lies with the person who places the apparatus on the Community market.
