Safety Components and the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
From time to time we are presented with a device that seemingly “fits” into the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU because it only has electric function and no moving components. This would lead most to apply the Low Voltage Directive instead … Continue reading
