Do the EMC regulatory arrangements cover fixed installations?
A fixed installation means a combination of types of devices, components and hardware that are assembled and installed at a place of use in such a way that the combination cannot be moved without part of the combination being at least partially disassembled. Fixed installations are exempt and not required to meet the EMC arrangements, although individual apparatus used to assemble the installation will have to comply with the arrangements. In the current phase of implementation of the EMC arrangements, only fixed installations are exempt and do not require compliance, although individual apparatus within them will have to meet EMC requirements. For the purposes of the EMC arrangements, a system is not exempt.
