SGS Testlab can voluntary be involved as "Notified Body EMC". In the case of product variants for which, e.g. type testing of the variations according to European standards is not economical, SGS Testlab can carry out the assessment of compliance with the essential requirements of the EMC Directive for the entire product family. This also applies to devices which, due to their size or location, cannot be tested according to EMC standards.

After a positive assessment of conformity by the Notified Body, manufacturers receive an EU type examination certificate which certifies compliance with the essential requirements of the Directive. Without this certificate, a manufacturer can at most only assume that the essential requirements have been met.
