EN 60721-3 = Classification of groups of environmental parameters and their severities.
According to the BSI catalogue, EN 60721-3-2 is identical to IEC 60721-3-2, Transportation, defines conditions to which a product is subjected while being transported from one place to another after being made ready for dispatch from the manufacturing factory. Similarly EN 60721-3-3 is identical to IEC 60721-3-3, Stationary use at weatherprotected locations, classifies the groups of environmental parameters and their severities to which products are subjected when mounted for stationary use at weatherprotected locations. As far as DIN and/or VDE "equivalents" are concerned, I can only comment that when an EN is published, the European members of CEN/CENELEC are mandated to transpose the EN into a national standard without modification. I seem to recall once having seen a copy of VDE 0805, the German version of EN 60950 - and it had pages and pages of German modifications.
