I heard that the omission of EN 61000-3-2 in earlier editions of the
general medical EMC standard (EN 60601-1-2) led people to think EN
61000-3-2 did not apply to medical equipment, even equipment for home
or office use. The line harmonics standard was added in later editions
of the medical standard to remove any doubt that it applied.
That may have been the case with EN 61326.
Possibly, but doubt can be removed by a Note or Informative text.
Normative text is inappropriate when the referenced standard applies in
any case, whether referenced or not.
