1.EC TYPE-EXAMINATION
1.1.The EC type-examination is that part of the procedure by which a notified body checks and certifies that an appliance, representative of the production envisaged, meets the provisions of this Directive which apply to it.
1.2.The application for type-examination must be lodged by the manufacturer or his authorised representative established within the Community with a single notified body.
1.2.1.The application must include:
the name and address of the manufacturer and, if the application is lodged by the authorised representative, his name and address,
a written declaration that the application has not been lodged with any other notified body,
the design documentation, as described in Annex IV.
1.2.2.The manufacturer must place at the disposal of the notified body an appliance, representative of the production envisaged, hereinafter called ‘type’. The notified body may request further samples of the type if needed for the test programme.
The type may additionally cover variants of the product provided that those variants do not have different characteristics with respect to types of risk.
1.3.The notified body must:
1.3.1.
examine the design documentation and verify that the type has been manufactured in conformity with the design documentation and identify the elements which have been designed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the standards referred to in Article 5 and the essential requirements of this Directive;
1.3.2.
perform, or have performed, the appropriate examinations and/or tests to check whether the solutions adopted by the manufacturer meet the essential requirements where the standards referred to in Article 5 have not been applied;
1.3.3.
perform, or have performed, the appropriate examinations and/or tests to check whether the applicable standards have effectively been applied where the manufacturer has chosen to do so, thereby assuring conformity with the essential requirements.
1.4.Where the type satisfies the provisions of this Directive, the notified body must issue an EC type-examination certificate to the applicant. The certificate must contain the conclusions of the examination, the conditions, if any, for its validity and the necessary data for identification of the approved type and, if relevant, descriptions of its functioning. Relevant technical elements such as drawings and diagrams must be annexed to the certificate.
1.5.The notified body must inform the other notified bodies forthwith of the issuing of the EC type-examination certificate and any additions to the said type as referred to in point 1.7. They may obtain a copy of the EC type-examination certificate and/or its additions and on a reasoned request may obtain a copy of the Annexes to the certificate and the reports on the examinations and tests carried out.
1.6.A notified body which refuses to issue or withdraws an EC type-examination certificate must inform the Member State which notified it and the other notified bodies accordingly, giving the reasons for its decision.
1.7.The applicant must keep the notified body that has issued the EC type-examination certificate informed of all modifications to the approved type which might affect conformity with the essential requirements.
Modifications to the approved type must receive additional approval from the notified body that issued the EC type-examination certificate where such changes affect conformity with the essential requirements or the prescribed conditions for use of the appliance. This additional approval is to be given in the form of an addition to the original EC type-examination certificate.
