Abstract :
This paper explains the basic principle of eco-design, which is very important part of ecology activities held worldwide. Base for this subject are EU directives RoHS, WEEE and EuP. There is good chance for business units to design better products with economical success and same help protect environment. But without knowledge of theoretical rules and ability design application can´t be expected any results in this way. That´s reason to implement distinct and objective subject which gives fundamental overview to all electric engineers out of a studious bent. In this paper is indicate the basic approach and shown how to make eco-evaluation of electrical products. At last there is suggested the structure of the basic topics that make the framework of eco-design education process.
