TS EN IEC 63000

TS EN IEC 63000 addresses the technical documentation used to support compliance with substance restrictions in electrical and electronic products. This standard focuses on the information package the manufacturer compiles to substantiate a declaration of compliance, bringing together product-related evidence, supplier information, and the records used in the assessment process.

What the technical file is for

In general technical practice, this kind of documentation collects material declarations, component data, assessment results, and supporting records in one traceable file. That is especially important for electrical and electronic equipment, because restricted substances may be present not only in the final assembly but also in parts, coatings, solders, plastics, and other auxiliary materials. The standard defines the type of technical documentation that underpins the assessment, rather than describing the chemistry of each restricted substance itself.

Why this distinction matters

• It is aimed at the manufacturer’s technical documentation used to declare compliance with applicable substance restrictions.
• It helps organize evidence for electrical and electronic products and their components in a structured, reviewable way.
• It supports compliance claims with traceable technical information rather than isolated declarations alone.
• It clarifies the link between material declarations and product structure, which is central to consistent assessment.
