4 LEGAL BASIS - LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK LAW ON TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTS AND CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT [Aligned with: NLF (Dec. 768/2008/EC), 98/34/EC] REGULATION ON THE MANNER OF DESIGNATION AND AUTHORISATION OF CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT BODIES REGULATION ON THE MANNER OF PROVIDING INFORMATION AND NOTIFICATION OF TECHNICAL REGULATIONS, CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT AND STANDARDS REGULATION ON MANNER OF PERFORMING CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT, CONTENT OF THE DOCUMENT OF CONFORMITY, AND SHAPE, APPEARANCE AND CONTENT OF THE MARK OF CONFORMITY LAW ON STANDARDISATION LAW ON ACCREDITATION LAW ON MARKET SURVEILLANCE (Aligned with NLF - Reg. 765/2008/EC) RULEBOOK ON ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT DESIGNED FOR USE WITHIN CERTAIN VOLTAGE LIMITS

5 LEGAL BASIS PROBLEMS IN THE TRANSPOSITION PROCESS YES The legal system of the state Directive contains essential provisions, which can not be applied in the RS at this moment Which provisions of the directive are not necessary to transpose to the national law? What about the national provisions in the transpositi on act and how to include national deviations? The old legislation - what with them? Entry into force?

8 THE MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE RULEBOOK AND DIRECTIVE MANUFACTURER TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY CONFIRMATION OF CONFORMITY CONFIRMATION OF CONFORMITY Confirmation of Conformity is a document certifying the compliance of the product in subject with the requirements of the Rulebook. Who issues Confirmation of conformity? Designated body on the basis of the request of different economic operators and enclosed documentation, which is: - declaration of conformity and - appropriate technical documentation reviews the technical documentation and if the conformity of the electrical equipment is confirmed, issues the Confirmation of conformity. It accompanying the product during placing on the market of the Republic of Serbia Shall be applied in the legal system of the R.of Serbia until entry into force of ACAA, and not later than the accession of RoS to the EU. SERBIAN CONFORMITY MARKING Serbian marking is the only label certifying that the product being placed on the market and/or put into use in the Republic of Serbia, is in compliance with the requirements of Serbian technical regulation, if such regulation provides its affixing. The conformity marking shall affix: - manufacturer, or - his authorised representative, or - importer (if the manufacturer or his representative is not registered in the Republic of Serbia) Shall be applied in the legal system of the RoS until entry into force of ACAA, and not later than the accession of Serbia to the EU.

9 CONFIRMATION OF CONFORMITY- EXAMPLE

10 QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE I. STANDARDISATION Harmonized standards in the field of el. equipment are transposed and adopted as Serbian standards by the Institute for Standardization of Serbia (ISS). Presumption of conformity on the basis of Serbian standards in the field of electrical equipment which transposed appropriate harmonized standards. The Rulebook is accompanied with a list of Serbian standards in the field of electrical equipment (published on Jun 5 th 2014 in the Official Gazette of RS No 59/14). The list of Serbian standards in the field of LVD standards (the list of harmonized standards in the field of LVD published on November 28 th 2013 in the Official Journal of the EU standards). Number of standards that are not adopted : 19 thereof: 6- will not be adopted (old edition) 13- will be adopted in 2014

11 QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE II. DESIGNATED BODY Two conformity assessment bodies that have been designated for conformity assessment of products in accordance with the Rulebook. Performing conformity assessment of electrical equipment includes: AND/OR 1.Assessment of the technical documentation with issue a Statement of conformity: 2. Assessment of the technical documentation with issue a Confirmation of conformity: ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER 1 INTERNAL PRODUCTION CONTROL ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER 1 INTERNAL PRODUCTION CONTROL ANNEX 4 CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT CARRIED OUT BY DESIGNATED BODY - 2 TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION 6 DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY 7 5 Art.11 DESIGNATED BODY 4 2 TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION 3 DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY STATEMENT OF CONFORMITY CONFIRMATION OF CONFORMITY

12 QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE III. ACCREDITATION I. Designated body Designated body proved the qualification for conformity assessment accreditation certificate. Designated bodies under the Rulebook, have been accreditting as: the certification body operating certification of products (SRPS EN 45011) the testing laboratory (SRPS ISO/IEC 17025) II. Conformity assessment bodies 12 conformity assessment bodies have been accredited in the field of LVD: SRPS ISO/IEC SRPS ISO/IEC SRPS EN 45011:2004

13 QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE IV. MARKET SURVEILLANCE Responsible authority in charge of market surveillance for LVD : Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Telecommunication Sector for market inspection Administrative capacity: The total number of employees in the Sector for market Inspection In charge of inspection supervision in the field of compliance and safety of non food products (electrical equipment, machinery, etc..) Legal basis for the implementation of market surveillance: Law on Market Surveillance (Official Gazette of RS, No. 92/11) and Law on Technical Requirements for Products and Conformity Assessment

14 QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE IV. MARKET SURVEILLANCE Methods of enforcement Market surveillance is carried out during or after placing electrical products on the Serbian market and/or into their intended use. The activities of market surveillance authorities are divided in the two types of activities: 1. PROACTIVE - based on financial and human resources, taking in to consideration the results from previous years, state of play on the market, the new risk recognized, risk assessment etc. (Market surveillance of electrical equipment is largely carried out in a proactive manner) and 2. REACTIVE - is mostly initiated in response to complaints made by consumers and other users or to RAPEX notifications, NEPRO) The primary form of surveillance is visual inspection. Compliance with administrative requirements (Documentary check) is also checked. If there are grounds for suspicion, further laboratory readings (Laboratory testing on the base of an appropriate sample) are taken.

15 QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE IV. MARKET SURVEILLANCE Activity in 2012 There were 591 inspections of adherence to the provisions of the according to the Law on Technical Requirements for Products and Conformity Assessment and Rulebook SUBJECTS OF CONTROLS TYPE OF CONTROL NO OF CONTROL NUMBER OF SAMPLED PRODUCTS IDENTIFIED NON- CONFORMITY NO OF NON- CONFORMI TY PRODUCTS Manufacturer Importer Distributor administrative sampling 480- proactive 181- reactive Total of 36 products sampling in qualified laboratories and non-compliance was established in 15 cases (41.67% of all samples taken). 1.The lack of adequate documentation: Declaration of conformity, Confirmation of conformity, instructions in the Serbian language, Serbian conformity mark) 2. Essential' non-conformity products - do not meet the requirements of the Rulebook and appropriate Serbian standards products in the amount of RSD 295,395,449
