Electromagnetic Compatibility Information
Classes
Various national agencies (in the United States, The Federal Communications Commission (FCC)) govern the
levels of electromagnetic emissions from digital devices. Electromagnetic emissions can interfere with radio
and television transmission. To reduce the risk of harmful interference these agencies have established
requirements for manufacturers of digital devices
The manufacturer of a digital device must test and label a product to inform an end-user of the maximum
emission level from the product when used in accordance with its instructions. The emission levels
encountered are classified as Class A or Class B. A system that meets the Class A requirement can be
marketed for use in an industrial or a commercial area. A system that meets the more stringent Class B
requirement can be marketed for use in a residential area in addition to an industrial or a commercial area.
The end user is generally held responsible for ensuring that his system is suitable for its environment as
stated in the above paragraph and bears the financial responsibility for correcting any harmful interference.
