was taught that when using harmonized standards to justify Presumption of Conformity, you must use the most relevant standard to your product/application.

So if there is a product/family standard that obviously applies to your product, you should use it as opposed to a generic standard.

 

Is that documented? Or is it just a rule of thumb?

Neither, really. A product (-family) standard 'takes precedence' over a generic standard, but in principle a manufacturer can apply any standard and then seek to justify the choice in the EMC assessment.
