Are components within the scope of RoHS?
For the purposes of RoHS all parts sold as part of the product are capable of being considered as part of the finished product. Whether a part is considered part of the product may depend upon such considerations as interdependence, expected inclusion in WEEE and product description. This may include items such as: Playing pieces or dice in a game requiring electricity to play Cases supplied with the product (example: a protective case supplied with a power tool) It does not include items such as: Packaging Instruction manuals Consumables such as printer cartridges, jigsaw blades and drill bits However, non electrical accessories supplied separately are not within the scope of the directive (such as fashion mobile phone covers).
