Introduction
Legislation targets the use of certain substances in electrotechnical products
Europe: Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
China: Management Methods on the Prevention and Control of Pollution Caused by Electronic information Products (Chinese RoHS)
US (California): Electronic Waste Recycling Act (. 20), Electronic Waste, Advanced Disposal Fees (. 50)
Other regional regulations

Why Testing? And How?
Testing may be performed for a variety of reasons:
As a supplement to supply chain material declarations, companies may choose to test products directly to panies may require their suppliers to perform testing as a supplement to the supplier’s material panies may perform “spot checks” of their suppliers to pliance
Government officials may test as basis to pliance

Why Testing? And How?
Certain test methods to determine regulated material content already exist, but:
Most are not appropriate for testing electrotechnical products
Testing methods differ from each other
Methods are not internationally recognized
Not agreed upon by countries regulating substances in EEE

Importance for Setting Standard Testing Methods
Compliance checks have to be performed in a consistent and reliable manner
Need for detailed specifications of standard methods to pliance with the regulations
Standard methods need to be implementable by laboratories all around the world
International standard methods encourage trade of products by avoiding technical barriers
Harmonisation pliance and enforcement methods is essential for a proper functioning of the global market
