Certification content summary
C-tick is the electromagnetic compatibility part of Australia, which is controlled by the Australian Communication Association. At present, only the interference part is controlled, and the products within the control scope are enforced from January 1, 1999.
Australia's requirements for EMC adopt the self declaration method of EMC architecture (1992 radio communication act). The electrical products specified in this architecture must comply with Australian standards and be approved by the Australian Communications Agency before using the c-tick mark.
The EMC system in Australia divides products into three levels. Suppliers must register with ACA and apply for the use of c-tick mark before selling level II and level III products.

Level 1 products
It refers to products with low interference radiation to equipment using wireless spectrum, such as manual switch, simple relay, unidirectional squirrel cage inductive motor, resistance, etc. For grade I products, the supplier must sign the declaration of conformity and provide the product description. Grade I products can voluntarily apply for the c-tick mark, but after choosing to use the mark, the supplier shall provide the compliance statement and product description together with the compliance record to prove that the products described in the statement have met the relevant EMC standards. The test location is not required, and internal test is allowed.
Level II products
It refers to products with high interference and radiation to equipment using wireless spectrum, such as switching power supply, electric welding machine, dimmer, most household appliances, etc. In addition to signing the declaration of conformity and providing the product description, the supplier must also provide the test report carried out according to the relevant standards. If there is no relevant standard, the technical structure document needs to be provided. The test location is not required, and the internal test is allowed.
Level III products
It refers to products with extremely high interference and radiation to equipment using wireless spectrum, that is, products covered by cispr11 and cispr22. At present, communication terminal products are still included in this scope, but from November 7, 2003, terminal products will be divided into level II products. In addition to signing the declaration of conformity and providing the product description, the supplier must also provide the test report issued by the recognized test organization. At the same time, the quality management system certificate issued by QSM certification body shall be issued.
