Re: [PSES] Transition period of new or revised standards

2019-09-10 Thread John Woodgate
It is not a correct interpretation of 'no transition period'. The 
European Foreword is correct, except that in rare cases, the European 
Commission sets a different date from that set by CENELEC, in which case 
the Commission's date applies.


Your last sentence is correct. Docopocoss rules!

It seems to be not in line with above European level and below

For harmonized standards, we have to follow the first publication OJ 
and Date of cessation of presumption of conformity of superseded 
standard in OJEU regardless of above application dates in standard.

[PSES] Transition period of new or revised standards

I have a query about the transition period in BS EN standard and seeking
advice how to correctly interpret the transition period based on the EU
normal application.
