How Are Cooper Bussmann Products Affected by the RoHS Directive?
If the Cooper Bussmann product is a component of electrical or electronic equipment that falls under the WEEE Directive’s Scope, then the Cooper Bussmann product must be free of the hazardous materials specified in RoHS. These are most likely to be products used in consumer electronics. The vast majority of Cooper Bussmann electrical UL and IEC power distribution, transportation and consumer replacement products are exempt as they fall outside the scope of the WEEE and, as a result, RoHS Directives. These exempt products are primarily used in power distribution systems, stationary large-scale industrial tools or as replacements for existing products already on the market.
If the Edison Fuse product is a component of electrical or electronic equipment that falls under the WEEE Directive’s Scope, then the Edison Fuse product must be free of the hazardous materials specified in RoHS. These are most likely to be products used in consumer electronics. The vast majority of Edison Fuse electrical UL and IEC power distribution, transportation and consumer replacement products are exempt as they fall outside the scope of the WEEE and, as a result, RoHS Directives. These exempt products are primarily used in power distribution systems, stationary large-scale industrial tools or as replacements for existing products already on the market.
