Although your given reference is for EMC Directive,
Sorry about that: this list is mostly about EMC and I remembered at the
beginning that your post was LVD, but I forgot later.
I assume it is identical with LV Directive.
You cannot safely assume ANY correspondence between the EMC Guide and
the LVD Guide. But the principle cited in the EMC Guide comes from
'above' in the Commission, so whether it is in the LVD Guide in the same
terms or not doesn't matter. See clause 18, page 12 of the 2007 LVD
Guide (mod Jan 2012):
A harmonised standard can be used to provide a presumption of conformity
at the moment of the first national publication of the standard
according to Article 5, second paragraph, and in this regard the listing
in the Official Journal of the EU is only for information, in accordance
with Article 5, third paragraph.
The Official Journal also contains the date of cessation of
presumption of conformity of the superseded standard, which is
considered to be the date beyond which a harmonised standard is no
longer considered to be up to date in the light of technological
progress and the developments in good engineering practice in safety
matters (Article 5, second paragraph). In this regard the listing
therefore provides the definitive text
