If you meet the R&TTE Directive, do you still need to meet the EMC Directive?

No the RTTE covers the EMC aspects of the products. The only exception to this is when the product is a “wireline” product then the LVD and EMC Directives can be applied separately if desired.

Do products intend for use in a car fall under the R&TTED or Automotive Directive?

Products built into a car must have the Automotive Directive applied as well. Products that are occasionally used in a vehicle on a car charger can follow the RTTED alone. However if an RTTE product is intended for use in a vehicle then information should be included in the user manual to ensure it’s safe installation and usage. Alan Binks Page 3 of 5 1st March 2010.
