For information.
The European Union has put out a notice to all national committees aimed
at clarifying the implementation dates for the harmonics and flicker
standards. (Reference TC741 JPV/is/970722 dated 1997-07-10) They have
also referenced the 555 series standards and in their minds clarified the
relationship between the two harmonics standards. The notice is copied
below for your information. Please note the IEC 555 -2 and 555-3 are
withdrawn and obsolete. This means CENELEC is not using an international
standard for those products covered.

"Taking into account the above, for products originally not
falling within the scope of EN 60555-2/EN 60555-3 but covered by EN
61000-3-2/EN 61000-3-3, presumption of conformity to the ERs of the EMC
Directive exists and is confirmed on the basis of a manufacturer's
declaration based on the generic EMC standards up to 2001-01-01.
In this context reference is made to Note 2 to Table I of EN 50021-1
(relating to emission in the a.c. mains supply and in particular
harmonics) which reads:
"Note 2: Applicable to apparatus covered within the scope of EN 60555-2
and EN 60555-3. Limits for apparatus not currently covered by EN 60555-2
and EN 60555-3 are under consideration.'
In consequence the levels given in these two standards applicable to the
relevant phenomena can be used for conformity assessment purposes under
the manufacturer's responsibility."
