FCC Part 15 Compliance Testing for Electronic Devices

If you are a manufacturer or distributor pushing electronic devices to the U.S. market, understanding fcc part 15 compliance is crucial. However, the complexity of fcc part 15 testing can be overwhelming. This is where 360 Compliance steps in as your trusted partner, guiding you through the process with expertise and efficiency.

What is FCC Part 15 Testing?

FCC Part 15 compliance refers to the portion of the FCC rules that sets limits for electromagnetic interference (EMI) from electronic devices. These regulations ensure that radios, computers, and any device that may emit radio frequency (RF) energy do not interfere with wireless communications. Compliance is mandatory for various electronic products, making FCC Part 15 testing an essential part of the manufacturing process.

To sell electronic products within the U.S., devices must not only comply with these regulations but must also pass tests and documentation proving compliance. Non-compliance can lead to fines, recalls, and damage to a company’s reputation.

What Types of Devices are Covered by Part 15?

Devices under Part 15 are divided into two main categories:

Class A Devices

Class A devices are typically industrial or commercial products designed for business environments. These devices have more relaxed radiation limits compared to Class B devices. They are expected to operate in environments equipped with professional IT personnel to manage and mitigate potential electromagnetic interference.

Class B Devices

Class B devices are consumer-facing electronics designed for residential environments. These devices must meet stricter emission limits compared to Class A devices to ensure they do not interfere with common household electronics such as TVs, radios, and Wi-Fi routers.

Which Products Need FCC Part 15 Certification?

Any electronic device that emits radio frequency (RF) energy must undergo FCC Part 15 testing. This includes:

Intentional Radiators

1. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices

2. Remote controls

3. Radio transmitters
