Market surveillance under EMC and R&TTE Directive

The Federal Network Agency for Electricity, Gas, Telecommunications, Post and Railway (Federal Network Agency) is responsible to carry out the market surveillance under EMC- (89/336/EWG) and R&TTE- Directive (99/05/EWR). This market surveillance is a spot check of the national market.

Please keep in mind, that the following statistics of the Market surveillance under EMC and R&TTE does not reflect the quality of the whole electric/electronic products on the German Market, because the Federal Network Agency is not "scanning" all available products on the national Market. The Federal Network Agency focuses on detecting of products with shortcomings and take afterwards the appropriate measures.
