Hi Gert

Thanks for that interesting comparison.

I looked at EN 55022:2006 earlier. It was €76 with Luxembourg and €24 and at 
standards.ie, according to their websites and assuming that I am comparing like 
for like. This also appears to be a large difference.

Looks like one should shop around?

Regards

John McAuley

Subject: RE: Purchase of EN standards

A small comparison for a popular standard:

 

EN 60950-1:2006

 

Luxembourg              Euro 136   

British standards        Euro 331   (50% off for subscribers)

Danish standards      Euro 116

Irish standards           Euro  304   (40% off for subscribers)

Dutch Standards       Euro  198

 

Differences exist, and another standard might

give other conclusions. All are for PDF delivery.

Some are offered in foreign valuta and 

bank costs are not included.

I do not know the costs included with becoming a

subscriber. I also do not understand how that justifies

such a large difference.

 

Opinions welcome....

 

Draw your conclusions.

Those produced by CENELEC and CEN are obtainable from the national 
standards bodies of the member states. The prices vary greatly, and one 
of the lowest price sources is Danish Standards, at http://www.en.ds.dk/

This is an English language version of the web site and most ENs are 
published in English as well as Danish.

ENs produced by ETSI are free to download from the ETSI web site.
