RCM (Regulatory Compliance Mark) – Australian & New Zealand compliance requirements
Для будь-якого відповідного продукту ACMA RCM необхідний місцевий відповідальний постачальник. Постачальники продуктів, що входять до сфери дії ERAC, повинні мати ABN, щоб зареєструватися як постачальники. Продукти, які не входять до сфери ERAC, можуть постачатися через місцевого агента-постачальника RCM, який діє від їхнього імені.
Relevant RCM test reports must be held by the supplier as evidence of compliance with the relevant RCM standards.
All suppliers must register on the ACMA / ERAC National Database. Supplier registration is free of charge for ACMA registration.
Suppliers must register on the ACMA/ERAC National Database and if mandatory RCM safety standards apply, they must also register the product on the database.
Suppliers must complete and sign an RCM Declaration of Conformity Statement which lists all the applicable RCM standards which the product complies with. (EMC, EMR, Wireless, Telecoms, Electrical Safety).
C-tick and A-tick were phased out by the Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM) in March 2016.
The RCM label must be affixed to the product after compliance has been established prior to supply in the Australian or New Zealand market. Affixing the RCM label prior to compliance and also not keep records as required may be an offense under the law. Click here to download the RCM label
