In IEC61439-1 - Annex J, there is a reference to the test that has to be performed to ensure that the EMC emitted from products are at a minimum. The BlokSeT switchboard meets the IEC requirements as all the internal products meet these requirements. Functional units within switchboard which do not fulfill the requirements of IEC 61439-1 / J.9.4.2 (a) and (b) shall be subjected to the tests, as applicable. We give information about how to route power and communication cables (as wrong cable routing may cause a failure due to EMC), but it is also the responsibility of the manufacturer to ensure that the cable routing and terminations are correct, all products have to be connected to ground, not to group communications and power cables together or keep them close to each other. If standard design is used and all the iPMCC, wiring guidelines of are followed, BlokSeT complies to the EMC directive.

So, normally EMC test is not mandatory as per IEC61439. Please make sure that the installation follows the required guidelines for EMC as per IEC 61439-1 Annex: J and BlokSeT EMC guideline.
