With societal development, modern electronic and electrical products, such as lighting, communication devices, household appliances, power tools, and IT equipment, have become widely available. While they bring convenience, they also worsen the electromagnetic environment, causing electronic devices to interfere with one another, sometimes severely enough to disrupt proper functioning.
To address this issue, the European Commission has established directives requiring electronic and electrical equipment entering the EU to comply with the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2014/30/EU. These products must pass relevant safety tests and obtain a CE certificate to be sold or used in the EU market.
The Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU applies to electronic and electrical equipment operating within a voltage range of 50-1000V for AC and 75-1500V for DC.
