Standards & Technical Issues

EGMF’s Boundary Wire Standard and Mark

In order to avoid interference between robot mowers operating in the vicinity (in adjoining gardens for example), EGMF has developed a Boundary Wire Industry Standard.

Application of this standard is voluntary and open to all robot mower manufacturers. No patent on technology or device is required. The standard recommends a maximum current limiting the electromagnetic emissions through the guidance wires such that robot mowers can operate adjacent to each other.

EGMF encourages the application of this standard as it is a powerful means to avoid interference and to facilitate the operating efficiency of robot mowers. The “BW” Mark can be used to show that the robotic mower system is compliant with the EGMF Boundary Wire Standard.

For more information on the EGMF Boundary Wire Standard and conditions for use of the “BW” Mark, please contact us.
