M/305 - IT - Electromagnetic fields
Standardization mandate addressed to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the field of electrotechnology, information technology and telecommunications
Mandate M/305 directs CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to develop standards in the fields of electrotechnology, information technology, and telecommunications related to electromagnetic fields. This mandate aims to ensure harmonized European standards addressing the safety, measurement, and assessment of electromagnetic fields across relevant industries. The decision on the approval or disapproval of the mandate is recorded under resolution CEN/BT C42/2001. This standardization effort supports regulatory alignment and helps to protect public health and safety while fostering technological development within the European Union.
Purpose
This mandate aims to address standardisation in the fields of electrotechnology, information technology, and telecommunications with a focus on electromagnetic fields. It seeks to establish harmonized standards to ensure safety, compatibility, and performance concerning electromagnetic field exposure and related technologies.
Standardisation request
The request is directed to the European standardisation organisations CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI. These bodies are tasked with developing and harmonizing standards in their respective technical domains related to electromagnetic fields, covering aspects relevant to information technology and telecommunications equipment.
Expected deliverables
Deliverables are expected to include European standards that define requirements, testing methods, and procedures related to electromagnetic field exposure in the relevant sectors. These standards will facilitate compliance with EU legislation and promote the safe and effective use of technology involving electromagnetic fields.

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/305 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Standardization mandate addressed to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the field of electrotechnology, information technology and telecommunications". Standardization mandate addressed to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the field of electrotechnology, information technology and telecommunications 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.
