EMC AND LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVES
20 EMC AND LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVES
The products sold in the European countries have been required by law to comply with the
EMC and Low Voltage Directives of the EU Directives since 1996 and 1997, respectively.
The manufacturers must confirm by self-declaration that their products meet the
requirements of these directives, and put the CE mark on the products.

Address: Gothaer strase 8, 40880 Ratingen, Germany
20.1 Requirements for Compliance with EMC Directives
The EMC Directives specifies emission and immunity criteria and requires the products to
meet both of them, i.e., not to emit excessive electromagnetic interference (emission): to
be immune to electromagnetic interference outside (immunity).Guidelines for complying
the machinery including MELSEC-QnA series PLC with the EMC Directives are provided
in Section 20.1.1 to Section 20.1.7 below.
The guidelines are created based on the requirements of the regulations and relevant
standards, however, they do not guarantee that the machinery constructed according to
them will comply with the Directives. Therefore, manufacturers must finally determine how
to make it comply and how it is compliant with the EMC Directives.
