FCC and CE EMC Certification
Greetings:
Why are some imported (to the U.S.) intentional radiators (such as
RC toys, fitness heart-rate monitors, etc.) not FCC EMC Part 15
certified (there is no FCC OET record on file)? These have CE
EMC Certification and a CE 'number'; is there a treaty that
exempts such devices from further FCC certification? Is there
a publicly accessible database of CE 'numbers' similar to the
FCC OET filings? I have found nothing of use on the 'net in
these matters?
This is OT to r.r.a.h. in that it is often useful to get the
schematic of an intentional radiator from the FCC filings or
at least find freq. and emissions info about it when using
parts from such a device in a homebrew project. I would like to
do the same with CE certified devices and also learn why so
much foreign-made stuff isn't in the FCC database.
Regards,
Michael
