CE Marking Essentials — Reference Books

CE Marking for Electronics Engineers — The Book

The reference you keep open while you work — not a video you have to scrub back through. The same curriculum as the Krono Labs CE Marking course, in a format you can read in one sitting, search in seconds, and return to mid-project. Covers directive applicability, harmonised standards, testing strategy, technical file structure, and the legal Declaration of Conformity.

RoHS and REACH Compliance — The Complete Guide

The reference you keep open while you work — not a video you have to scrub back through. The same curriculum as the Krono Labs RoHS and REACH Compliance course, in a format you can read in one sitting, search in seconds, and return to mid-project. Covers every aspect of EU chemical compliance for electronics manufacturers and hardware teams: RoHS substance restrictions, the homogeneous material concept, testing methods, exemptions, REACH SVHCs, Annex XIV authorisation, Annex XVII restrictions, SCIP database submissions, supply chain due diligence, WEEE, the EU Battery Regulation, and a complete compliance documentation framework.

GPSR for Hardware Sellers: A Practical Compliance Guide to the EU General Product Safety Regulation

Most hardware and consumer electronics sellers meet the EU General Product Safety Regulation the way it hurts most: as a marketplace suspension notice, arriving weeks after a fully tested, fully CE-marked product went live with no responsible person named and no translated safety information attached. This book is built to prevent that collision entirely. It walks through Regulation (EU) 2023/988 from first principles to complete practical compliance: the legal framework that replaced the 2001 Product Safety Directive, exactly how to scope a product as harmonized, non-harmonized, or both, the general safety requirement and a full six-category risk assessment methodology, every economic operator role, the responsible person requirement, technical documentation and the Declaration of Conformity, traceability, labelling, and translated warnings, online marketplace and direct-to-consumer listing requirements, accident and incident reporting through the Safety Business Gateway, market surveillance, Safety Gate, recalls, penalties, how GPSR works alongside CE-marked electronics legislation, cybersecurity essential requirements for connected products, and how this framework compares to product safety regulation in the UK and the United States. Every chapter closes with a knowledge check drawn from the companion video course, a full worked compliance walkthrough for a WiFi-enabled smart plug ties every requirement together end to end, and eight appendices turn the book's worksheets into templates you can put to work on your own product catalog immediately. This book contains the use of artificial intelligence.
