MARKET ACCESS

EU Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU

The directive establishes safety objectives for electrical equipment within specified voltage ranges and supports CE conformity assessment.

Electrical safety review

When it matters

It matters when electrical equipment, including certain chargers, power supplies, or high-voltage assemblies, is placed on the EU market within scope.

Key considerations

Voltage ratings and product function determine scope.
LVD compliance is part of CE assessment.
Chargers may be covered when battery equipment is not.

Project preparation

Confirm rated voltages.
Identify harmonized standards and risks.
Compile reports, drawings, labels and declarations.

Confirm scope before selecting standards
