M/359 - EMC directive
Standardisation mandate forwarded to CEN/CENELEC/ETSI for equipment covered by the EMC Directive intended to be installed in vehicles
Mandate M/359 requests the European standardisation organisations CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to develop harmonised standards for equipment covered by the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive when intended for installation in vehicles. The mandate aims to ensure that such equipment complies with EMC requirements, facilitating market access and safety by minimizing electromagnetic interference. This standardisation supports manufacturers and authorities by providing clear technical specifications aligned with the EMC Directive, enhancing interoperability and regulatory compliance for automotive applications.
Purpose
This mandate concerns the establishment of European harmonised standards for equipment covered by the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive, specifically focusing on devices intended to be installed in vehicles. Its goal is to ensure that such equipment meets EMC requirements, thereby supporting the free movement of goods within the EU and protecting vehicle systems from electromagnetic interference.
Standardisation request
The mandate requests the European standardisation organisations CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to develop harmonised standards related to the electromagnetic compatibility of vehicle-installed equipment. These standards should facilitate compliance with the EMC Directive’s essential requirements for such equipment.
Expected deliverables
The deliverables are harmonised European standards or technical specifications that specify the methods and criteria for demonstrating compliance of vehicle-installed equipment with the EMC Directive. These documents will serve as practical tools for manufacturers, conformity assessment bodies, and market surveillance authorities.
Context
The EMC Directive aims to ensure that electrical and electronic equipment does not generate, or is not affected by, electromagnetic disturbance. As vehicles increasingly incorporate complex electronic systems, dedicated standards are required to address the specific EMC challenges posed by equipment installed in vehicles. Standardisation under this mandate supports regulatory compliance and technology interoperability within the automotive sector.
This mandate covers the standardisation of equipment subject to the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive that is intended to be installed in vehicles. It focuses on ensuring electromagnetic compatibility for such equipment within the automotive sector.

Frequently Asked Questions
A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/359 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Standardisation mandate forwarded to CEN/CENELEC/ETSI for equipment covered by the EMC Directive intended to be installed in vehicles". Standardisation mandate forwarded to CEN/CENELEC/ETSI for equipment covered by the EMC Directive intended to be installed in vehicles There are 0 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
