You're not excluded from anything at all.
Anything you do needs to be compliant with the LVD, RFD, EMC, etc. directives, with associated/appropriate harmonized standards (ENxxxxx). That you've found a couple of sentences somewhere is irrelevant, and only fitting to one certain scenario.
I strongly suggest that you involve a CE consultant early in the process, before this gets out of hand. The costs later may kill your business.
