Recently, the EU launched the latest one for household appliances electric tools and similar apparatus of electromagnetic compatibility EMC revised standard EN 55014-1:17edition. This standard covers the main products for household electrical appliances power tools with the adjustment of the semiconductor device controller motor driven electrotherapy equipment Electric toy vending machines and movie or slide projector, and cover the battery ac dc power supply of the above products.

EN 55014-1:2017 will take effect on October 28, 2017, and currently still use the old version.

EN 55014-1:2006+A1:2009+A2:2011 will expire on April 28, 2020.

The new standards are mainly revised:

First is to rearrange sections of the original standard to correspond to the standard layout and add some definitions.

Second is to add or change the conditions and methods of partial testing.

Such as newly increased the operating conditions of the new test induction cooker, put the limit value integrated into the main standard. And the radiation harassment test has added general and special test layout plans (e.g. Vacuum cleaner cleaning robot, etc.); Except the conduction harassment test of AC port can use the current probe test method replaces the voltage probe.

Third, specified the use of the test methods and test components.

Such as specify the analysis of click (e.g., testing under continuous interference); the use of artificial analog hand is clarified, the test method of the built-in lighting equipment is defined, and the test of the cable network port of home appliances is introduced, and all special operation conditions are specified in appendix A.

In order to effectively deal with the new EU EMC standard, remind relevant enterprises.

One is to understand the main content and update status of EU EMC new standard EN 55014-1:17edition. At the same time, communication with foreign clients, effectively raise the quality of products, and on the other hand to raise risk awareness from product design, raw material procurement and production assembly.

 Second is to shift the focus, which from product safety performance appearance to the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) on indicators. Further enhance its own technical level and core competitiveness, make full use of government public resource advantages, and enhance the consciousness of the initiative to deal with technical barriers to trade. According to the definition of the importer required to do a good job of EMC test.

The third is to check the conformity of products, grasp the EMC test situation of product, and effectively control the product risk.
