RE: EN 55103 declaration
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.
