Need your comments:

Understanding this is a draft and has not been finalized, what is the
potential impact on current products and what proposed changes would affect
the way we currently do business?

< Parallel Voting of EN 61000-4-6:  Until recently the results of parallel
voting on basic standards in the IEC/EN 61000-4 series have been consistent
between the European and international versions and therefore no common
modifications were needed.  However, in the recent voting on IEC/EN
61000-4-6 [4] the second edition passed the vote in IEC but failed as an
EN.  It was decided by  CENELEC that different test methods in basic
standards between the IEC and EN versions would be undesirable, and so
common modifications have not been prepared.  This means that the current
EN version remains at the first edition.

An amendment has now been made to the international edition and CENELEC
will ensure the national committees have a chance to look again at the
revised standard to see if this can receive sufficient support in Europe to
allow the two versions (IEC and EN) to once again become identical.

IEC 61000-4-6 Ed. 2.1 (2004-11):
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 4-6: Testing and measurement
techniques - Immunity to conducted disturbances, induced by radio-frequency
fields.>
