Introduction of RCM
RCM is a registration mark indicating that the supplier declares that the product complies with the safety and other requirements set out in the electrical safety laws/regulations of the Australian states and New Zealand, as well as with the electromagnetic compatibility requirements set out in the Australian Radio Communications Act and the New Zealand Radio Communications Act. Only products meet the requirements of both electrical safety regulations and EMC regulations can use RCM signs.
The owner of the RCM logo is the federal government, and both the electrical safety statutory authority and the EMC statutory authority accept the RCM logo as a supplier qualification statement. As long as the supplier is authorized to use the RCM logo in any one state, the statutory governing bodies of the other states are acceptable, thus achieving a once-approved state passage.
