FCC Part 15 Testing and Certification

FCC Part 15 Testing and Certification

FCC Part 15 is Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations that sets limits on the amount of electromagnetic interference from digital and electronic equipment. FCC Part 15 also covers specifications, administrative requirements, and other conditions for marketing FCC Part 15 devices.

FCC Part 15 Testing and Certification

Most products that can radiate radio frequency energy need to be tested and certified to be marketed or sold in the United States. With few exceptions, any electronic device capable of oscillating above 9 kHz must be FCC authorized. When manufacturers sell equipment without proper approval, they can be fined and seized product and profits.

As an authorized TCB (Telecommunications Certification Body) EUROLABConducts the testing and evaluation necessary for FCC approval of various products that require FCC approval in accordance with FCC part 15. EUROLAB, the rule section and procedure defined in Part 47 of the CFR. Once this grant is issued, the grantee is free to begin marketing the device in the United States.

Our end-to-end testing and certification solutions help you determine your product's FCC regulatory requirements, determine whether it requires approval, and evaluate it against FCC rule part 15.

EUROLABis an FCC-recognized Accredited Testing Laboratory and an FCC-recognized TCB (Telecommunications Certification Body) that can make a determination of applicable testing procedures, test in accordance with those requirements, and authorize the Issuance of Equipment Authorization for any equipment. There is a rule section and procedure defined in Title 47 of the CFR.

EUROLABprovides pre-compliance testing to help you identify product deficiencies in the development process, making it easier to fix deficiencies while saving time and money.

Our expert wireless engineers can help you define and understand your product's legal requirements and evaluate it against all applicable standards and criteria.

Our FCC Part 15 Testing and Certification Capabilities

FCC Part 15 sets out regulations under which intentional, unintentional or incidental radiators can be operated without an individual license. The products that need to be authorized are the intentional or unintentional radiators of radio frequency energy.

Intentional radiators are devices such as smartphones that need to emit radio energy as part of their work. Unintentional radiators are electronics - like a digital camera - that can generate radio signals and broadcast them over space or power lines, an involuntary byproduct of their work.

The FCC has defined them as:

  • Defective radiator - Although the device is not intentionally designed to generate or radiate radio frequency energy, it is a device that generates radio frequency (RF) energy during operation. Examples of faulty radiators are dc motors, mechanical light switches, etc.
  • Intentional radiator - A device that deliberately generates and emits radio frequency (RF) energy by radiation or induction.
  • Unintentional radiator - A device that deliberately generates (RF) radio frequency energy for use within the device or transmits radio frequency signals by transmission to related equipment by connecting cables, but is not intended to emit RF energy by radiation or induction.

Depending on the type of equipment, verification, declaration of conformity, or certification are FCC Part 15 compliance processes. EUROLAB, may provide FCC Part 15 services, including pre-compliance testing, conducted emissions and radiated emissions testing, documentation review, and award of Equipment Authorization matters, Upon award of this grant, the grantee will be free to begin marketing the device.
