Brian, As of August 1, 2001, EN 60742:1995 should not be used for presumption of conformity to the LVD. EN61558-2-6:1997 supercedes it. The "last date of mfr" is unimportant. The date which the xfrmrs are placed on the market determines which standards to use in order to demonstrate compliance. Although a device may be built before the date of cessation of superceded standard, it still must comply with the newer standard if that date has passed. Generally speaking, there is a three to four year window between when the new standard is announced in the Official Journal of the European Communities, and when it becomes required. Usually that is a long enough period of time to allow industry to comply with the new standards. See the following file for more info on the standards and dates of the LVD... http://www.conformity.com/lowvoltagestandards.pdf <http://www.conformity.com/lowvoltagestandards.pdf>
