Dear Chuck,

What is exact meaning of the general report that covers XYZ countries, and 
National Differences in Country A adds $$, Country B adds $$, etc.?  Are they 
different countries for general part and national differences?  To the buyers, 
they are only interested in the products that legally sell to their markets.

Thanks and regards,

Scott

    Dear Scott:
    
        On that issue, National Differences, if you have told your 
    customer you are an expert on European Compliance, they will 
    expect expert advice.  If National Differences affects their 
    ability to sell, they will expect you will have advised them 
    of the limits associated with your report.
    
        It is obviously best to tell them in advance that the 
    general report covers XYZ countries, and National Differences in 
    Country A adds $$, Country B adds $$, etc.
    
        Basically, pass the buck to your customers and potential 
    customers, by informing and educating them.
    
        If you, the expert, don't cover this ground, and their 
    products are barred from some country, they will be unhappy.  The 
    ramifications of this are highly variable.  Lawsuits over this 
    type of subject are common.
    
    Regards,
    Chuck Seyboldt

the fact that both EN and IEC standards are identical.

list of OJEU before they were removed.  Regarding the national standard BS EN 
60335-2-24 should be technically identical with EN 60335-2-24.  Although it is 
still valid in BSI website, the HS removal is due to UK objection.  It does not 
make sense using BS EN 60335-2-24 to declare the compliance with LVD.

standard conversion.  For the time being, the latest IEC A2 amendment seems a 
reasonable reference to address the fire risk.

OJEU means that compliance with this standard does not provide the presumption 
of conformity as defined in Article 12 of LVD. Actually, the nationally adopted 
versions of this standard are still valid (e.g. BS EN 60335-2-24, 
https://shop.bsigroup.com/ProductDetail/?pid=000000000030236214). As IEC 
60335-2-24 is not listed as an international standard in the OJEU, I do not see 
any advantage in declaring CE compliance with the IEC version, especially as 
the objection raised by the UK against the use of highly flammable materials 
would also apply to fridges compliant with IEC 60335-2-24.

Module A, 2.), the manufacturer is bound to consider the findings in UK's 
objection and to avoid the use of such materials even if they are compliant 
with the IEC/EN standard. Please be aware that the obligations of the 
manufacturer (LVD, Art. 6) also include the monitoring of products already in 
the market and to take corrective measures if it is found that a product 
presents a risk.

you declare that your electrical equipment provides "a high level of protection 
of health and safety of persons, and of domestic animals and property" (LVD, 
Art. 1), using the standard as a technical means to demonstrate compliance, but 
considering also risks that are not adequately addressed in the standard.

the IEC is no longer valid.  Knowing now about the plastic issue, maybe you do 
some other evaluation method for it to ensure it’s safe to be used in that 
application.

What are other options to demonstrating the compliance with LVD?
