Basic introduction
In Australia, the EMC requirements for electrical products are monitored by the ACA (Australin Communications Authority). In addition to the Australian and New Zealand Standards (AS/NZS), ACA recognized 103 other standards in 2002, including EN, IEC and CISPR.
In order to limit the impact of electromagnetic interference, Australia has implemented mandatory electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements for all products within the scope specified in the standard since January 1999. Some EMC experimental projects must also meet mandatory requirements, namely: conduction interference, intermittent interference (click), and radiation interference. The remaining EMC projects are not mandatory. The product can only be pasted with the C-Tick logo after being inspected to meet relevant standards. Any company or individual must apply to the government authorities for use of this logo and can only be used after obtaining written approval, and the height of the logo must not be less than 3 mm.

Information identification
The information of Australian suppliers must be marked as specified next to the C-Tick logo so that ACA can effectively trace the suppliers responsible for the EMC of the product when sampling the product on the market. The identification of information includes four aspects:
1. Registration name and address of Australian supplier.
2. Australian Company Number (Australian Company Number)
3. Number issued by the ACA to Australian suppliers.
4. Australian registered trademark of the product used in the Australian market.
1. Registration name and address of Australian supplier.
2. Australian Company Number (Australian Company Number)
3. Number issued by the ACA to Australian suppliers.
4. Australian registered trademark of the product used in the Australian market.
Product classification
Australia's EMC system divides products into three levels. Before selling products of Level 2 and Level 3, suppliers must register with the ACA and apply for the use of the C-Tick logo.
Level 1 product
Level 1 product refers to products with low interference and radiation to equipment using wireless spectrum, such as manual switches, simple relays, one-way squirrel cage inductor motors, resistors, etc. For grade one products, the supplier must sign a statement of conformity and provide a product description. Products of Level 1 can voluntarily apply for the C-Tick logo, but after choosing to use the logo, the supplier will provide a record of compliance while providing a statement of conformity and a product description to prove that the products described in the statement have complied with the relevant EMC standards. No requirements are required for the test location and internal testing is allowed.
Level 2 product
Level 2 products refer to products with high interference and radiation to equipment that use wireless spectrum, such as switching power supplies, welding machines, dimmers, most household appliances, etc. In addition to signing a compliance statement and providing a product description, suppliers must also provide test reports according to relevant standards. If there are no relevant standards, they need to provide technical structural documents. The test location is not required and internal testing is allowed.
Level 3 products
Level 3 products refer to products with extremely high interference and radiation to devices using wireless spectrum, namely products covered by CISPR11 and CISPR22. At present, communication terminal products are still included in this range, but from November 7, 2003, terminal products will be classified into level two products. In addition to signing a compliance statement and providing a product description, suppliers must also provide a test report issued by an accredited testing agency. At the same time, a quality management system certificate issued by the QSM certification agency must be issued.
Level 1 product
Level 1 product refers to products with low interference and radiation to equipment using wireless spectrum, such as manual switches, simple relays, one-way squirrel cage inductor motors, resistors, etc. For grade one products, the supplier must sign a statement of conformity and provide a product description.
