CE Marking for the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2006/95/EC

The Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2006/95/EC
protection for European citizens and enjoys a Single Market in the European Union. The Directive covers electrical equipment designed for use with a
voltage rating of between 50 and 1000V for alternating current and between 75 and 1500V for direct current. For most electrical equipment, the health
aspects of emissions of Electromagnetic Fields are also under the domain of the Low Voltage Directive.
The LVD is one of the oldest Single Market Directives which, in broad terms, provides both a conformity assessment procedure to be applied to
equipment before being placed on the Market, and Essential Health Safety Requirements (EHSRs) which such equipment must meet either directly or
by means of compliance with harmonized standards.
For electrical equipment within its scope, the Directive provides 'The Requirements' with respect to health and safety covering all risks, thus ensuring
that electrical equipment is safe in its intended use.
In respect of conformity assessment, there is no third party intervention, as the manufacturer undertakes the conformity assessment. However, there are
so-called "Notified Bodies" under the Directive, which may be used to provide reports in response to a challenge by a national authority as to the
conformity of the equipment.
When installed in accordance with this manual, the product is CE marked by Parker SSD Drives in accordance with the Low Voltage Directive
Parker SSD Drives' certification (DoC) is supported by tests undertaken in accordance with harmonised standard BS EN61800-5-1
