The purpose of this original report was to raise the awareness of EMC-related functional safety among directors, managers, designers, and other professionals. It showed that compliance with the EMC Directive (or its harmonised standards) did not, of itself, ensure that EMC-related functional safety issues had been correctly addressed and relevant safety legislation met. This report provided guidance on how to deal with EMC as regards functional safety, and helped bridge the gaps between the EMC and safety disciplines in an organisation.
