Radio Pollution - NZ regulator inspects shops

The New Zealand regulator, the Ministry of Economic Development (MED), clearly take Radio Pollution seriously.

They recently carried out visits to shops in Auckland to ensure that the electrical products sold did not contribute to radio pollution and interference.

Audit carried out on compliance of electrical products

Smaller retail outlets in Auckland were the focus of educational visits and audits during 27 April to 1 May.

Four Radio Inspectors and Radio Spectrum Management's Compliance Officer visited shops and spoke to owners throughout the week.

The audits assessed electrical product compliance levels in regard to the electromagnetic compatibility requirements that protect the radio spectrum from interference, and also looked at electrical safety issues.

This is part of the Ministry of Economic Development's ongoing work to ensure that electrical products supplied in New Zealand are safe for use and do not contribute to radio pollution and interference.
