Scott My understanding is that the extension is purely so that there is not an expired standard listed in the OJ for the LVD – that’s all
There is no legal link between the dates in a standard and compliance with a Directive A manufacturer is free to use whatever standards they wish for compliance with LVD and article 3.1(a) of the RED, but only Harmonised Standards currently listed in the OJ provide a Presumption of Conformity Best regards Charlie Charlie Blackham Sulis Consultants Ltd Tel: +44 (0)7946 624317 Web: https://sulisconsultants.com/ Registered in England and Wales, number 05466247 From: Scott Xe <scott...@gmail.com> Sent: 07 December 2022 16:43 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] EN 62368-1 : 2014 CENELEC recently extended DoW for 18 months from 06/01/2023 to 06/07/2024. What are the impacts on importers/manufacturers, test houses and market surveillances? EN 62368-1 : 2014 is still valid for LVD/RED in EUOJ. All the relevant products should follow this version for EU markets. What is the point of this change to them? In general the test houses give unclear interpretations to their clients in this aspect. Sometimes, they follow EUOJ requirements but sometimes CENELEC. Some importers/manufacturers also confuse which requirements to follow. Some countries also may not adopt the latest IEC/EN standard as their national standards. Can't withdrawn standards be used?
