In reality most companies choose to test products to Harmonised
Standards, using test equipment made by companies who sit on standards
committees alongside test labs who perform the testing – but it’s
not compulsory
That's not fair; all standards bodies have a duty to ensure a balance of
representation on committees. There IS a problem of complacency, mostly
affecting equipment manufacturers, who don't send experts to the
committees and then complain that they don't like the resulting
standards. But the situation now is much better than it used to be - at
least the more wide-awake manufacturers realise they can't afford to be
out of the loop.
