LVD 2006/95/EC適用于所有本身功能使用電壓范圍在交流50~1000V，直流75~1500V的電氣產(chǎn)品，這個定義系指指令的適用范圍，而不是指令適用的限制 (例如，在使用交流230V的計(jì)算機(jī)中，直流12V的電路所造成的危險也受LVD的規(guī)范)。LVD適用于提供給消費(fèi)者和工業(yè)使用的產(chǎn)品，如果是工業(yè)用設(shè)備，指令也涵蓋了制造商本身使用的產(chǎn)品(例如: 測試設(shè)備)。本指令已于2007年1月16日起強(qiáng)制執(zhí)行。

除下列設(shè)備Equipment and Phenomena outside the Scope of this Directive：
Electrical equipment for use in an explosive atmosphere　爆炸環(huán)境下的電氣設(shè)備
Electrical equipment for radiology and medical purposes　放射及醫(yī)療目的的電氣設(shè)備
Electrical parts for goods and passenger lifts　用于貨物及人員升除的電氣部件
Electricity meters　電能表
Plugs and socket outlets for domestic use　家用插頭，插座
Electric fence controllers　電網(wǎng)控制器

Specialised electrical equipment, for use on ships, aircraft or railways, which complies with the safety provisions drawn up　使用在有專用要求的船舶，航天或鐵路上的電氣設(shè)備
by international bodies in which the Member States participate.國際性組織成員分享的設(shè)備

協(xié)調(diào)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)

如果一種產(chǎn)品是根據(jù)歐洲的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來設(shè)計(jì)并遵守歐洲標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，這樣便假定該產(chǎn)品是符合指示中的安全要求。例如，EN60598覆蓋照明產(chǎn)品，而EN60335則覆蓋家用電氣。具體詳見

符合性聲明

制造商或其授權(quán)的代表必須將CE標(biāo)志貼在產(chǎn)品上，并起草一份符合性聲明，細(xì)節(jié)如下：
