What's so important about 'e11' Marked (Type Approved) Product ? The Automotive EMC (ElectroMagnetic Compatibility) Directive 95/54/EC is primarily concerned with ensuring that the driver's control of a vehicle is not affected by ElectroMagnetic Interference from electrical/electronic equipment installed in vehicles, both original fit and aftermarket fit.
This Directive has been enacted into the law in Great Britain (England, Wales & Scotland) through the Road Vehicles (Construction & Use) Regulations and in Northern Ireland through similar legislation.
WOODWAY ENGINEERING is the exclusive licensed manufacturer of WHELEN designed equipment for Europe and carries out and administers all modifications to Whelen product to ensure that it complies with European Regulations. Whelen product not supplied through Woodway will not be approved to the Automotive EMC Directive 95/54/EC and e11 marked and approved for use in Europe.
Product that is purchased directly from the USA or from third parties purchasing direct from the USA will not be 'e11' marked and its operation on the highway on a type approved vehicle, (typically those registered since 1 January 1996), is illegal. |
