B-2 ETSI Regulations for the EC (European Community)

In the European Community (EC), GPR instruments must conform to ETSI
(European Technical Standards Institute) standard EN 302 066-1 v1.2.1. Details on

individual country requirements for licensing are coordinated with this standard.

For more information, contact Sensors & Software’s technical staff.

All Sensors & Software ground penetrating radar (GPR) products offered for sale in

European Community countries or countries adhering to ETSI standards are tested
to comply with EN 302 066 v1.2.1.

For those who wish to get more detailed information, they should acquire copies of

the following documents available from ETSI.

ETSI EN 302 066-1 V1.2.1

(February 2008) Electromagnetic compatibility and

Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Ground and Wall- Probing Radar applications
(GPR/WPR) imaging systems; Part 1: Technical characteristics and test methods

ETSI EN 302 066-2 V1.2.1

(February 2008) Electromagnetic compatibility and

Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Ground and Wall- Probing Radar applications
(GPR/WPR) imaging systems; Part 2: Harmonized EN covering essential

requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive
