John I agree that huge progress has been made over the last 3 decades in particular, but I do think that issues like this (and I'm sure there are others) do need to be addressed if we are to make further significant progress.
Therefore I think that point should be made to the chairmen of all the relevant TC's, and thus: - the TC's which are effectively "in disagreement" over their definitions and requirements for "the same things" should be clearly identified ; - the areas of disagreement, and the reasons why, should be identified; - these should be rationalised and "equalised" - but, if that does not resolve the issues then some "head-banging" (probably lead by the IEC & CENELEC) needs to take place to sort them out. That being my view (and that - like yourself! - having been in the regs & stds business for very many years), do ANY OF THE "SIGNIFICANT" CONTRIBUTORS TO THE FORUM (notably the chairmen of relevant TC's‼‼) have some sensible suggestions as to how these progress towards these objectives could be achieved? NB: for my part I would suggest that this issue should be raised at the next IEC &/or CENELEC top-level steering committee meetings for them to identify and chart some possible ways forward from where we are today.
