EMC Testing Of Automotive Devices RN Electronics offer a fast and cost effective approach to EMC testing for the automotive sector. As a Technical Service, we perform 'e' mark and Regulation 10 tests on electrical/electronic subassemblies (ESA) and components as well as devices intended for after-market fitment.
In the UK 'e' mark certificates are issued by the VCA who is the designated Type Approval authority. All components and ESA which are related to the functions of: direct control of the vehicle (e.g. engine, gear, brake, suspension, steering, speed limiting, driver position, driver visibility), driver, passenger and other road-user protection (e.g. airbag, seat belts), vehicle data bus (i.e. by blocking data transmission to other safety critical functions), vehicle statutory data (e.g. tachograph, odometer), and functions which when disturbed cause confusion to the driver are required to be Type Approved and carry the 'e' mark. 'e' marking can also be applied voluntarily to other components and ESA.
VCA (Vehicle Certification Agency) is an executive agency of the department for transport, in charge with operating the system of automotive type approvals in the UK. As an autonomous Technical Service RN Electronics can offer testing at greatly reduced lead times and can act on our customers' behalf to obtain the 'e' mark certification from the VCA. For further information contact RN Electronics, an established, cost effective and friendly service alternative to the whole vehicle test facilities. Automotive Testing Capabilities
