RE: EN 55103 declaration

2003-01-07 Thread David Sproul

Dear Mr Chan,
you may get an e-mail from BSI justifying what they do, but I find it
irritating (mainly because I wish I had thought of it first.)
If you look at most of the BS EN standards, you will see that they are the
EN Standards with a BSI front and back cover.  This makes it an official
British standard, since traditionally BSI set various standards within the
UK.

The rest of the standard is invariably identical to the EN standard.  What I
find irritating is that BSI then charge us a lot of money for putting these
extra pages onto the EN standard for you.  No-one (except this miserable
tight-fisted Scotsman) seems to mind paying them for this service.  Oh how I
wish I had thought of this first.

Best regards,
David Sproul.

EN and BSI EN are the same, but I would suggest you use EN standards on your
DoC, instead of BS EN.  The publish date of the standards from EN and BS EN
might not be the same, so to avoid confusion, use EN, which the publish
date(actually the date is version) are same as those listed in OJ.

Sir

What is the rationale given for some people not accepting an EN standard
issued by BSI?
My employer typically buys EN stds from BSI. Is there something different
about BSI-printed standards?

thanks for info.

No, they are identical (apart from the National Foreword and things like
that) but *some people may not know that*, especially where the EN is
published in December (2000 + n) but the BS EN carries the date (2000 +
n + 1).

Happy New Year!

I believe that EC Declaration of Conformity should give references to
harmonized standards (listed in OJ).
