The concept of 'superseding' is not very helpful, because it does not tell the whole story, in fact, it misses out the most important bit! When a new standard is issued, it CAN be used to demonstrate compliance from the date it is notified in the Official Journal. But it MUST be used after the 'dow' date in its Foreword, which is the 'date of cessation of presumption of conformity of the superseded standard'. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk After swimming across the Hellespont, I felt like a Hero. ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
