Home audio refers to the audio configured for playback, which mainly plays the role of providing entertainment and relaxation for the family. Nowadays, many families are equipped with their own home audio, but generally, if such products are to be exported to the EU market, CE certification is required.

The importance of applying for CE certification

CE certification provides a unified technical specification for the trade of products from various countries in the European market and simplifies the trade procedure. To enter the European Union and the European Free Trade Area, the products of any country must be CE certified, and the CE mark should be affixed to the product. Therefore, CE certification is a passport for products to enter the European Union and European Free Trade Zone countries.

CE certification means that the product has met the safety requirements stipulated by the EU directives; it is a commitment of enterprises to consumers, which increases consumers' trust in the product; products affixed with the CE mark will reduce the risk of being sold in the European market.

Home audio CE certification test standard

EN 62368-1: Audio/video, information and communication technology equipment, safety requirements;

EN 55013: Sound and television broadcast receivers. Radio interference characteristics. limits and methods of measurement;

EN 55020: Immunity to electromagnetic interference of sound and television broadcast receivers and related equipment. extreme values and methods of measurement;

EN 61000-3-2: Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Part 3: Limits. Section 2: Limit value of harmonic current radiation (equipment input current is 16A/phase);

EN 61000-3-3: Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Part 3-3: Limits. Limitation of voltage fluctuations and flicker in public low-voltage power supply systems (for equipment with rated current less than and equal to 16A).

Home audio CE certification test project

EMC test items: space radiation, magnetic field radiation, voltage flicker, harmonics, electrostatic discharge, radiation interference, electrical fast transient burst, surge/lightning strike, voltage drop/interruption.

LVD test items: input, withstand voltage, temperature rise, overload, leakage current, tidal testing, etc.

Materials to be prepared for home audio CE certification application

1. Circuit schematic diagram;

2. Printed circuit layout and parts location map;

3. English manual (the manual must have the factory name or trademark, model, parameters, installation method and necessary safety warnings);

4. Description of model differences (if there are multiple models in the same series, the similarities and differences between the models must be clearly listed. The statement must be signed.);

5. Label/nameplate;

6. Product installation structure diagram/exploded diagram (please specify the part number and part name.);

7. List of key parts and components (the list must be signed);

8. A copy of the certificate of the important safety-related components (refer to the requirements of the "Key Parts List" to provide the certificate, and check the serial number on the certificate and whether the parameters match the actual sample).
