EMC consultancy services

In addition to the comprehensive test facilities and services that we offer, consultancy forms a vital and increasingly important aspect. Our consultancy services are typically based around product evolution meaning that we get involved in all areas of the product design. This includes:

• Identification of the appropriate requirements (contractual and legislative)
• Preparation of control and test plans including test suites where no relevant standard exists
• Identification of key risks of EMC design and minimization of this through limited testing through the design process
• Preparation of technical documentation for end customers and/or regulatory bodies
• Notified Body services for CE marking directives (EMC, R&TTE)

Defence / Aerospace
