CE Marking Electronic Equipment (EMC)
CE Marking for Electronic Equipment - Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
European Directive EMC 2014/30/EU
The European Directive 2014/30/CE for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) of Electronic Equipment and other equipment that generates and modifies electromagnetic fields, harmonizes the safety and health requirements for the design and manufacture of these equipment at European level and for the entire European Economic Area (EEA). These products must meet all the requirements established by law before being introduced to the market, marketed or used.
The aim of this directive is to establish basic requirements for a complete electromagnetic compatibility between devices and guarantee their correct operation. If the producer or importer marks their products with the CE Mark, it mean that the products comply with all safety requirements included in the Directive EMC 2014/30/EU.

A.1
Subject matter
This Directive regulates the electromagnetic compatibility of equipment. It aims to ensure the functioning of the internal market by requiring equipment to comply with an adequate level of electromagnetic compatibility.
A.2
Scope
1. This Directive shall apply to equipment as defined in Article 3.
[…]
1. For the purposes of this Directive, the following definitions shall apply:
(1) ‘equipment’ means any apparatus or fixed installation;
(2) ‘apparatus’ means any finished appliance or combination thereof made available on the market 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;
(3) ‘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;
(4) ‘electromagnetic compatibility’ means the ability of equipment to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without introducing intolerable electromagnetic disturbances to other equipment in that environment;
(5) ‘electromagnetic disturbance’ means any electromagnetic phenomenon which may degrade the performance of equipment; an electromagnetic disturbance may be electromagnetic noise, an unwanted signal or a change in the propagation medium itself;
(6) ‘immunity’ means the ability of equipment to perform as intended without degradation in the presence of an electromagnetic disturbance;
(7) ‘safety purposes’ means the purposes of safeguarding human life or property; (8) ‘electromagnetic environment’ means all electromagnetic phenomena observable in a given location;
[…]
1. General requirements Equipment shall be so designed and manufactured, having regard to the state of the art, as to ensure that:
(a) the electromagnetic disturbance generated does not exceed the level above which radio and telecommunications equipment or other equipment cannot operate as intended; (b) it has a level of immunity to the electromagnetic disturbance to be expected in its intended use which allows it to operate without unacceptable degradation of its intended use.
2. Specific requirements for fixed installations Installation and intended use of components A fixed installation shall be installed applying good engineering practices and respecting the information on the intended use of its components, with a view to meeting the essential requirements set out in point 1.
