Regulation 12 General duty for terminal equipment not intended for connection
No person shall supply or put into service connection-capable equipment or radio connection-capable equipment unless—
the manufacturer or person who first supplies the equipment within the Community has made an intended purpose declaration;
at the time when such equipment is first supplied in the Community (or, if it is put into service without being supplied in the Community, when it is so put into service) a copy of the intended purpose declaration is transmitted to a notified body;
such equipment is accompanied by—
a copy of the intended purpose declaration; and
the operating manual; and
there is affixed to such equipment—
the CE mark; and
the symbol shown in Schedule 4 (“the non-connection symbol”) hereto in such a way that it follows the CE mark and visually forms an integral part of the total marking.
No person shall affix to connection-capable equipment or radio connection-capable equipment—
the CE mark, unless—
it is equipment to which paragraph (1) above applies; and
the requirements of that paragraph other than sub-paragraph (d)(i) are complied with: provided that nothing in this sub-paragraph shall prohibit the affixing of the CE mark to any such equipment pursuant to any Community right or obligation other than the TTE Directive; or
the connection symbol.
No person shall connect, or permit to remain connected, connection-capable equipment or radio connection-capable equipment to any public telecommunications network.
In these Regulations “intended purpose declaration” means a declaration in English (or another language acceptable to the notified body) in the model provided for in Schedule 5 to these Regulations that equipment is not intended for connection to a public telecommunications network.
