Dear Experts, I would like to know your view with regards to the Product standards for machine tools as per below. It mentioned that the date of cessation was 2008 & 2005 respectively. For the On-site testing ( Manufacturer's Premises), I believe this standard can still be usable for the fact that; we are using EN 50370as reference, but we are not actually showing full compliance to EN50370. Weare showing that, by referencing an EMC standard typical for the type ofequipment (and EMC environment), that the argument of compliance with theDirective Essential Requirements is good. In an EMC Technical File, we arearguing compliance with the Directive, not particular Standards. This means that, inactual fact, it doesn't really matter which product/generic standard isreferenced when testing in situ, but logic says (due to the definitions) thatEN50370 is more appropriate than EN61000-6-x. Any insights are welcome. Many thanks in advance,
