What I noticed is that this trades an application-specific requirement
(Residential, Commercial, and Light Industry) for a device-specific requirement
(ITE equipment).
If I was in a factory environment, I would like all the equipment around me to
be EMC compatible, without regard as to the device type.  It would be sad to
read a news story about an accident in a factory due to regulation confusion
(the component was tested as an ITE item, but it was controlling an overhead
crane). 

What are the problems or issues addressed by EN55024 that were not covered by
EN50082-1?
