B-2 ETSI Regulations for the EC (European Community)
In the European Community (EC), GPR instruments must conform to ETSI (European Technical
Standards Institute) standard EN 302 066-1 v1.2.1. Details on individual country requirements
for licensing are coordinated with this standard. For more information, contact Radiodetection’s
technical support staff.
All Radiodetection ground penetrating radar (GPR) products offered for sale in European
Community countries, or countries adhering to ETSI standards, are tested to comply with EN
302 066 v1.2.1.
It is the user’s responsibility to check and ensure that they satisfy individual country licensing
requirements.
The UK for example, does currently require a licence to operate Ground Penetrating Radar,
details are available from OFCOM. (https://licensing.ofcom.org.uk).
We recommend that users check with the Radio and Telecoms Licensing authority in the
country of use. Radiodetection sales and support staff can help with contact details and
information.
