John et al,
Unfortunately, this CE marking disparity very likely originated from the CE Marking Directive itself, which amended several directives with inconsistent CE marking requirements. Subsequent repealing directives simply carried those inconsistencies forward. However, I agree that a definitive text should be referenced (or copied verbatim) instead of creating separate and different requirements per directive. But, since this situation has existed for many years now, it's unlikely to be corrected any time soon.

Indeed; it is something that is often complained about to the Commission, but so far nothing has happened. What should happen is that each Directive should refer to, not quote, a definitive text, presumably in the CE Directive itself. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
