[F1 ANNEX XV U.K. REGULATORY ACTS FOR WHICH A MANUFACTURER MAY BE DESIGNATED AS TECHNICAL SERVICE

Textual Amendments

F1 Substituted by Commission Regulation (EU) No 371/2010 of 16 April 2010 replacing Annexes V, X, XV and XVI to Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a framework for the approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles (Framework Directive) (Text with EEA relevance).

0. Objectives and scope U.K.

0.1. This Annex lays down the list of the regulatory acts for which a manufacturer may be designated as technical service in accordance with Article 41(6). U.K.

0.2. It also includes appropriate provisions concerning the designation of a manufacturer as technical service, to be applied in the framework of the type-approval of vehicles, components and separate technical units concerned by Part I of Annex IV. U.K.

0.3. However it does not apply to manufacturers which apply for small series approval in accordance with Article 22. U.K.

1. Appointment of a manufacturer as technical service U.K.

1.1. A manufacturer appointed as technical service is a manufacturer who has been designated by the approval authority as a testing laboratory to carry out approval tests on its behalf in the meaning of point 31 of Article 3. U.K.

In accordance with Article 41(6), a manufacturer may only be designated as technical service for category A activities.

1.2. The expression ‘to carry out test’ is not restricted to the measurement of performances but covers also the registration of test results and the submission of a report to the approval authority including the relevant conclusions. U.K.

It covers the checking of compliance with those provisions which do not necessarily require measurement. This is the case for the assessment of the design against legislative requirements.

For example, ‘ check compliance of the location of the fuel tank in a vehicle with the provisions of point 5.10 of Annex I to Directive 70/221/EEC ’ has to be understood as part of ‘ to carry out test ’ .
