I seem to recollect that I have previously pointed out that the LVD states "electrical equipment which complies with....harmonised standards shall be regarded....as complying"; and "standards shall be regarded as harmonized once they are drawn up by common agreement....and published under national procedures. FOR PURPOSES OF INFORMATION the list of harmonized standards and their references shall be published in the OJ".
So I am in agreement with Rich Woods on this one !!

Your text is rather unclear, but if you are claiming that an EN can be used to demonstrate conformity BEFORE it is *notified* in the Official Journal, I do not think that is correct. Harmonization is a separate issue. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk After swimming across the Hellespont, I felt like a Hero.
