1

What CE Marking Really Is

Before you select standards or call a lab, you need to understand what the CE mark actually means — and what it does not mean.

2

The New Legislative Framework

The New Legislative Framework is the architecture that makes CE marking work across EU member states.

3

Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU

Safety of electrical equipment starts with the Low Voltage Directive and the harmonised standards that satisfy it.

4

EMC Directive 2014/30/EU

Electromagnetic compatibility is not a nice-to-have.

5

Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU

Any product that intentionally transmits or receives RF signals is in scope of RED.

6

RoHS, REACH, WEEE, and Battery Regulation

Hazardous substances, recycling, and end-of-life obligations complete the environmental side of compliance.

7

Identifying Applicable Directives

The most expensive mistake in CE marking is assuming the wrong directives apply.

8

Essential Requirements Mapping

Essential Requirements are the non-negotiable baseline your product must meet.

9

Harmonised Standards Selection

Standards give you a presumption of conformity — but only if you pick the right ones and use the current versions.

10

Conformity Assessment Routes

Not every product can be self-certified.

11

Risk Assessment

A proper risk assessment is the backbone of your technical file and your DoC.

12

Testing Strategy

Pre-compliance testing saves money; formal accredited testing creates evidence.

13

Building the Technical File

The technical file is what an enforcement authority will ask for first.

14

Declaration of Conformity

The Declaration of Conformity is your signed legal statement, not a certificate issued by a third party.

15

Applying the CE Mark

There are strict rules about the size, proportions, and placement of the CE mark.

16

EU Representative and Importer Obligations

If you are outside the EU, you need a responsible party inside it.

17

Post-Market Obligations

Compliance does not end when the product ships.

18

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Most CE marking failures come from the same small set of errors.

19

Final Summary and Action Plan

Turn what you have learned into a checklist you can run on every product.
