EU Directives

A–4

European Union Directives

Although the EMC Directive gets the most attention, other basic Directives, such as
the Machinery Directive and the Low Voltage Directive, also place restrictions on the
control panel builder. Because of these additional requirements it is recommended
that the following publications be purchased and used as guidelines:

S

BSI publication TH 42073: February 1996 – covers the safety and
electrical aspects of the Machinery Directive

S

EN 60204–1:1992 – General electrical requirements for machinery, including
Low Voltage and EMC considerations

S

IEC 1000–5–2: EMC earthing and cabling requirements

S

IEC 1000–5–1: EMC general considerations

It may be possible for you to obtain this information locally; however, the official
source of applicable Directives and related standards is:

Basic EMC Installation Guidelines

The simplest way to meet the safety requirements of the Machinery and Low Voltage
Directives is to house all control equipment in an industry standard lockable steel
enclosure. This normally has an added benefit because it will also help ensure that
the EMC characteristics are well within the requirements of the EMC Directive.
Although the RF emissions from the PLC equipment, when measured in the open
air, are well below the EMC Directive limits, certain configurations can increase
emission levels. Holes in the enclosure, for the passage of cables or to mount
operator interfaces, will often increase emissions.
