What are EN standards?
An abbreviation of Norme Europeenne
(in French), and called European
Standards in English. Approval is by vote
among the CEN/CENELEC member
countries, and is a unified standards
limited to EU member countries, but the
contents conform to the international
ISO/IEC standards.

If the relevant EN standard does not
exist, it is necessary to obtain approval
based on the relevant IEC standard or, if
the relevant IEC standard does not exist,
the relevant standard from each country,
such as VDE, BS, SEMKO, and so forth.
CE markings and EC
directives
The world's largest single market, the
European Community (EC) was born on
1 January 1993 (changing its name to
EU in November 1993. It is now always
expressed as EU, apart from EC direc-
EN 61812-1
tives.) EU member country products
EN 61812-1
have always had their quality and safety
EN 61812-1
guaranteed according to the individual
EN 61812-1
standards of each member country.
EN 61812-1
However, the standards of each country
EN 61812-1
being different prevented the free flow of
EN 61812-1
goods within the EU. For this reason, in
EN 61812-1
order to eliminate non-tariff barriers due
EN 61010-1
to these standards, and to maximize the
EN 61812-1
merits of EU unification, the EC direc-
EN 61812-1
tives were issued concomitant to the
EN 61812-1
birth of the EU.
EN 61812-1
The EN standards were established as
EN 61812-1
universal EU standards in order to facili-
EN 61812-1
tate EU directives. These standards
EN 61010-1
were merged with the international IEC
—
standards and henceforth reflect the
EN 61010-1
standards in all countries. Also, the CE
EN 61010-1
markings show that products conform to
EN 61010-1
EC directives, and guarantee the free
EN 61010-1
flow of products within the EC.

The main EC directives that are to do
—
with machinery and electrical equipment
are the machinery directive, the EMC
directive, the low voltage directive, and
the telecom directive. Although these
directives have already been issued, the
date of their enactment is different for
each one. The machinery directive was 1
January 1995. The EMC directive was 1
January 1996, and the low voltage direc-
tive was enacted from 1 January 1997.
The telecom directive was established by
the separate CTR (Common Technology
References.)
