CE has released the 2023 version of the regulations for EN 50360 / EN 50566, and BTL will quickly explain the new version of the regulations for you.
A. The first is the fast SAR regulations for the long-released EN IEC 62209-3. This time it has also been included in the recognized test regulations. This is equivalent to future CE SAR testing, and fast SAR systems will be used for testing. Certification. The introduction of regulations is expected to be June 2025
B. The requirements for time-averaged SAR are also formally included in the specifications.
C. References to limit values are also updated.
Table 1 of Annex II of Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC，This is for conventional consumer electronics products：
Table A1 of Annex III of Directive 2013/35/EU，This is a requirement for professional equipment that can only be used by professionals:
At this stage, CE has initially agreed to include fast SAR into the approved testing regulations, which can speed up future testing. However, it must still be noted that the current European random testing for SAR is gradually increasing its efforts, and the test system used for random testing is not It will be limited to fast SAR systems or traditional probe SAR systems, so when the product is shipped, BTL still recommends testing and verification on both current systems to ensure that the product can meet regulatory requirements.
BTL has both fast SAR (cSAR System) and traditional probe (DASY SAR System) systems, which can assist customers in conducting complete random testing and verification during shipment. If you have any questions or needs, please feel free to ask.

Overview of EN IEC 61000-4-29:2026
The key focus of the 2026 edition is to address new DC power distribution environments, especially higher-voltage DC systems. It also clarifies test generator capability, duration tolerance, current limitation during short interruptions, inrush current verification, result evaluation, and test report requirements. For products using 24 Vdc, 48 Vdc, 380 Vdc, 400 Vdc, 800 Vdc, or other DC input pow
