One, CEProductCertification means what?
The product not only needs to comply with the CE certification, but the products that have obtained CE certification must also display the "CE" certification logo on the product label or packaging box. CE certification is a right to affix the CE mark to a product, and products with the CE mark are deemed to comply with European product safety regulations, allowing for free trade within the European Economic Area (EEA).

What is the CE Marking?

CE certification grants the right to affix the CE mark to a product and should begin at the product development stage, as there are CE requirements related to product safety, user health, and the environment that are best addressed during development; however, CE certificates can be issued for ready-to-use products, and products with a CE certificate must comply with European safety regulations before they can be traded freely within the European Economic Area (EEA).

To understand the scope of CE certification, it's essential to first grasp what specific directives are included within it. This involves an important concept: "Directive." A "Directive" refers to a technical regulation that sets out the fundamental safety requirements and methods for products. Each directive is tailored to a specific product category, so understanding the meaning of directives will clarify the exact scope of products covered by CE certification.

Products requiring CE certification:
Machinery and Equipment (MD)
2. Explosion Protection Directive (ATEX)
3. Electrical Equipment (LVD)
4. Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC)
5. Construction Products (CPR)
6. Medical Devices (MDD)
7. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
8. Pressure Equipment (PED)
Radio Equipment (RED)
Toy CE Certification
Ceramic CE Certification
Measurement Instruments
13. Elevator Commands (LIFTS)

Three: Six Steps for CE Certification
Product categories vary in the process to obtain a CE certificate, with a general approach including the following steps:
1. Find the EU Directives Applicable to Your Product
2. Basic Requirements for Searching Products
3. Confirm if the product requires assessment by a certification body
4. Evaluate product compliance
5. Establish and maintain technical documentation
6. Draft compliance statements and affix the CE mark

Section 4: CE Certification Documentation Requirements
Circuit Schematic & PCB Layout Diagrams
2. Product manuals and product labels
3. Product working principle diagram and block diagram;
4. Key Component List (wires, plugs, fuses, pressure-sensitive resistors, optocouplers, X/Y capacitors, transformers, casings, etc.)
5. Product Bill of Materials (BOM)
6. Product-related specifications.
