basic introduction

In Australia, the EMC requirements for electrical products are monitored by ACA (Australin Communications Authority). In addition to the Australian and New Zealand standards (AS / NZS), ACA recognized 103 other standards in 2002. These standards include EN, IEC and CISPR.

In order to limit the impact of electromagnetic interference, Australia has implemented mandatory electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements for all products within the scope of the standard since January 1999. Some EMC experimental projects must also comply with mandatory requirements. They are: conducted interference, intermittent interference (clicking sound), and radiated interference. The remaining EMC projects are not mandatory. C-Tick logo can only be affixed after the products have been tested and meet the relevant standards. Any company or individual who wants to use this mark must submit an application to the competent government department and use it after obtaining written approval, and the height of the mark must not be less than 3 mm.

Information sign

The information of Australian suppliers must be marked next to the C-Tick mark so that ACA can effectively trace back to the supplier responsible for the product ’s EMC when sampling the product on the market. The identification of information includes four aspects:

1. The registered name and address of the Australian supplier.

2. Australian Company Number (Australian Company Number)

3. The number issued by the ACA to Australian suppliers.

4. Australian registered trademark for products used in the Australian market.

Product division

Australia's EMC system divides products into three levels. Suppliers must register with ACA and apply for the C-Tick mark before selling level 2 and level 3 products.

Level one product

Level 1 products refer to products with low interference radiation to devices using wireless spectrum, such as manual switches, simple relays, unidirectional squirrel-cage induction motors, and resistors. For level 1 products, the supplier must sign a declaration of conformity and provide a product description. Level 1 products can voluntarily apply for the C-Tick mark, but after choosing to use the mark, the supplier must provide a declaration of conformity and a product description together with a record of compliance to prove that the product described in the declaration has been Conforms to relevant EMC standards. The test location is not required, and internal testing is allowed.

Level 2 products

Level 2 products refer to products with high interference radiation to devices using wireless spectrum, such as switching power supplies, welding machines, dimmers, and most household appliances. In addition to signing the declaration of conformity and providing the product description, the supplier must also provide a test report in accordance with the relevant standards. If there is no relevant standard, it is necessary to provide technical structure documents. The test site does not require it and allows internal testing.

Level 3 products

Level 3 products refer to products with extremely high interference radiation to devices using wireless spectrum, that is, products covered by CISPR11 and CISPR22. At present, communication terminal products are still included in this range, but from November 7, 2003, terminal products will be classified into level two products. In addition to signing a declaration of conformity and providing a product description, the supplier must also provide a test report issued by an approved testing agency. At the same time, a quality management system certificate issued by a QSM certification body must also be issued.
