No. Look at Annex ZA of these ENs to see that the IEC standards
referenced in Clause 2 of the standard are replaced by the ENs listed in
the Annex. This is IMPORTANT, because the relationship is NOT
necessarily 1:1, although it often is.

No, they don't set limits. They **appear** to, but this part of each
Basic Standard is not valid and will be removed or re-worded in later
editions.
