Commission Directive 2000/2/EC of 14 January 2000 adapting to technical progress Council Directive 75/322/EEC relating to the suppression of radio interference produced by spark-ignition engines fitted to wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors and Council Directive 74/150/EEC relating to the type-approval of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors (Text with EEA relevance)

Official Journal L 021 , 26/01/2000 P. 0023 - 0031

COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2000/2/ECof 14 January 2000adapting to technical progress Council Directive 75/322/EEC relating to the suppression of radio interference produced by spark-ignition engines fitted to wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors and Council Directive 74/150/EEC relating to the type-approval of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors(Text with EEA relevance)THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Council Directive 74/150/EEC of 4 March 1974 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors(1), as last amended by European Parliament and Council Directive 97/54/EC(2), and in particular Article 11 thereof,Having regard to Council Directive 75/322/EEC of 20 May 1975 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the suppression of radio interference produced by spark-ignition engines fitted to wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors(3), as last amended by Directive 97/54/EC, and in particular Article 5 thereof,Whereas:(1) Directive 75/322/EEC is one of the separate directives of the EC type-approval procedure which was established pursuant to Directive 74/150/EEC. Consequently, the provisions laid down in Directive 74/150/EEC applicable to systems, components and separate technical units apply to Directive 75/322/EEC.(2) Directive 75/322/EEC contains the earliest measures endeavouring to bring about a basic electromagnetic compatibility regarding radio interference. Subsequently, technical progress has increased the complexity and diversity of electrical and electronic equipment.(3) To take account of the increasing concern about the technological developments in electrical and electronic equipment and the need to ensure the general compatibility of different electrical and electronic equipment, Council Directive 89/336/EEC(4), as last amended by Directive 93/68/EEC(5), laid down general provisions regarding electromagnetic compatibility for all products not covered by a specific directive.(4) Directive 89/336/EEC established the principle that, in so far as protection requirements specified in that Directive were harmonised, its general provisions would not apply or would cease to apply with regard to apparatus covered by specified directives.(5) Directive 75/322/EEC should become such a specific directive.(6) The adaptation to technical progress was effected, in the case of motor vehicles, by Commission Directive 95/54/EC(6) relating to the suppression of radio interference produced by spark-ignition engines fitted to motor vehicles. Equivalent requirements must now be adopted on the suppression of radio interference produced by engines fitted to agricultural or forestry tractors, by establishing a specific directive within the framework of the type-approval procedure which provides for approvals granted by designated national authorities on the basis of harmonised technical requirements.(7) From 1 October 2001 the technical requirements relating to the radio interference (electromagnetic compatibility) of vehicles, their components and systems should be governed solely by the provisions of Directive 75/322/EEC.(8) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Adaptation to Technical Progress established by Article 12 of Directive 74/150/EEC,HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:Article 1Directive 75/322/EEC is amended as follows:1. The title is replaced by the following: "Council Directive 75/322/EEC of 20 May 1975 on the suppression of radio interference produced by agricultural or forestry tractors (electromagnetic compatibility)."2. Articles 1 and 2 are replaced by the following: "Article 1For the purposes of this Directive, 'vehicle' means any vehicle as defined in Directive 74/150/EEC.Article 2No Member State may refuse to grant EC type-approval or national type-approval to a vehicle, system, component or separate technical unit on grounds relating to electromagnetic compatibility if the requirements of this Directive are fulfilled."3. Article 3 is deleted.4. Article 4 is replaced by the following: "Article 4This Directive shall constitute a 'specific directive' for the purposes of Article 2(2) of Council Directive 89/336/EEC(7) with effect from 1 October 2001."5. The Annexes shall be replaced by Annexes I to IX to Directive 95/54/EC, subject to the amendments set out in the Annex to this Directive.Article 21. With effect from 1 January 2001, Member States may not, on grounds relating to electromagnetic compatibility:- refuse to grant EC type-approval or national type-approval in respect of any given type of vehicle,- refuse to grant EC component or technical unit type-approval in respect of any given type of component or separate technical unit,- prohibit the registration, sale or entry into service of vehicles,- prohibit the sale or use of components or separate technical units,if the vehicles, components or separate technical units comply with the requirements of Directive 75/322/EEC, as amended by this Directive.2. With effect from 1 October 2002, Member States:- may no longer grant EC vehicle type-approval, EC component type-approval or EC separate technical unit type-approval,and- may refuse to grant national type-approval,for any type of vehicle component or separate technical unit, if the requirements of Directive 75/322/EEC, as amended by this Directive, are not fulfilled.3. Paragraph 2 shall not apply to vehicle types approved before 1 October 2002 pursuant to Council Directive 77/537/EEC(8) nor to any subsequent extensions to these approvals.4. With effect from 1 October 2008, Member States:- shall consider certificates of conformity which accompany new vehicles in accordance with the provisions of Directive 74/150/EEC to be no longer valid for the purposes of Article 7(1) of that Directive,and- may refuse the sale and entry into service of new electrical or electronic sub-assemblies as components or separate technical units,if the requirements of this Directive are not fulfilled.5. Without prejudice to paragraphs 2 and 4, in the case of replacement parts, Member States shall continue to grant EC type-approval and to permit the sale and entry into service of components or separate technical units intended for use on vehicle types which have been approved before 1 October 2002 pursuant to Directive 75/322/EEC or Directive 77/537/EEC and, where applicable, subsequent extensions to these approvals.Article 3In point 3.17 of Annex I and point 2.4 of Annex II to Directive 74/150/EEC, "interference suppressor" is replaced by "electromagnetic compatibility".Article 41. Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive by 31 December 2000 at the latest.
