Dear Sir/Madam

NEW EMC COMPLIANCE ARRANGEMENTS AS OF NOVEMBER 2001
As your Company is a registered ‘C-Tick’ user with the Australian Communications Authority [ACA], this letter is to inform you that the ACA has made a number of changes to its Electromagnetic Compatibility [EMC] Scheme.
The changes are an outcome of a review into the EMC arrangements to:

  • Improve compliance arrangements required by equipment suppliers to meet EMC
  • Harmonise the EMC schemes between Australia and New Zealand.
    Changes to the arrangements are detailed in the attached summary.
    A major benefit from the change is that the EMC arrangements in Australia and New Zealand are now aligned. Electrical/electronic products that meet either the Australian or New Zealand EMC arrangements can now be supplied to both countries without additional regulatory processes. Previously, separate regulatory requirements applied.
    An updated EMC Booklet “Information for suppliers of electrical and electronic products in Australia and New Zealand” can be obtained from ACA offices as listed or downloaded from the ACA Website at
    http://www.aca.gov.au/standards/emc/emc.htm.
    Enquiries about the changes can be directed to the EMC Section on [02] 6219-5258,    fax on [02] 6219-5133 or email
    : emc@aca.gov.au.  
      Yours faithfully
