David, As far as I can recall the ANSI C95.1 and Canadian Safety Code 6 are the source for most such standards worldwide. A while ago I researched these as well as the Australian standard. The main difference seemed to be in degrees of applicability and in some cases method. ACA in Australia and some other groups had discussions on these and documents on the internet. IEEE has had some papers on these as well.
In order to use the ANSI results in Australia you would in addition to the given of having the identical product have to have the report agreed to by a certifying agency(see ACA web site). Australia did not intend to have its own unique set of standards so provision was made for tie ins to other standards. I don't have my copy of the Standards Australia catalog at hand but it would indicate the derivative document (i.e. equivalent or similar to) for AS2772.1. I have read the Swedish document yet.
