Community regulations
European directives
The opening of European markets implies a harmonization of regulations in the
various European Union member states.
European Directives are documents used to remove obstacles to the free movement
of goods and their application is compulsory in all states of the European Union.
Member states are obliged to transcribe each Directive into their national legislation
and, at the same time, to withdraw any confl icting regulations.
The Directives, particularly those of a technical nature with which we are concerned,
only set objectives, called “general requirements”.
The manufacturer must take all necessary measures to ensure that his products
conform to the requirements of each Directive relating to his equipment.
As a general rule, the manufacturer affi rms that his product conforms to the
necessary requirements of the Directive(s) by applying the e label to his product.
The e marking is applied to Telemecanique products where relevant.
The signifi cance of e marking
The e marking on a product means that the manufacturer certifi es that his product
conforms to the relevant European Directives; it is necessary in order that a product
which is subject to a Directive(s) can be marketed and freely moved within the
European Union.
The e marking is intended solely for the national authorities responsible for
market regulation.
For electrical equipment, conformity of the product to standards indicates that it is
suitable for use. Only the guarantee of a recognized manufacturer provides an
assurance of high quality.
One or more Directives, as appropriate, may apply to our products, in particular:
The Low Voltage Directive 72/23/EEC amended by Directive 93/68/EEC: The e
marking under the terms of this Directive is compulsory as of January 1, 1997.
The Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC, amended by Directives
92/31/EEC and 93/68/EEC: The e marking on the products covered by this Directive
has been compulsory since January 1, 1996.
Directive e ATEX 94/9/EC.
