It looks very much to me that 'consumer' is a synonym of 'user' in general, not restricted to 'home user'.

I've been going back-and-forth with a large International GMA source over whether the Customs Union EMC Technical Regulation TR 020/2011 only applies to "consumers".  I have the English translation of that regulation which was issued by Bellis from Belarus and it states the following under the DEFINITIONS heading:

/"This technical regulation of the Customs Union, the following terms and their definitions: apparatus - structurally completed technical means available to the body (shell) and, if necessary, the devices (ports) for external connections, designed for the consumer (user)"/

I believe that the fundamental question concerns the definition of "consumer" within the regulation.  Typically within western nations the term "consumer" applies to residential applications, not commercial/professional/industrial.  Can anyone on this list help with this understanding?

Thanks in advance,

Carl
