CE marking of elctrical control panels

Derek Eccles

Before BREXIT, the following statement regarding control panels was true.

"Low voltage Assemblies marketed within the EU have to comply with all relevant Directives and be CE marked. For the majority of Assemblies this requires compliance with the Low Voltage and the EMC Directives. Fully meeting BS EN 61439-2 allows the PSC Assembly to be CE marked.”

Now that we have left the EU and since I havent heard anything to the contrary I presume UK control panels still have to comply with BS EN 61439, but should they also have a CE mark .

    If you only have to comply with “self-certify” legislation (and Directives), it's pretty straightforward as Mike says.

    If the Directive (or UK legislation) requires 3rd-party certification is where things get tricky, because UK-registered independent certification bodies are not necessarily EU-registered (and vice-versa).
