ENszabványokról

ENszabványokról refers to European Standards. These are technical standards adopted by CEN (European Committee for Standardization), CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization), and ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute). EN standards are developed through a consensus-based process involving national standards bodies of member countries. The aim of EN standards is to harmonize technical specifications across Europe, facilitating the free movement of goods and services and promoting interoperability.

When a product or service meets an EN standard, it is often presumed to meet relevant EU directives. This presumption is important for manufacturers seeking to place products on the market within the European Economic Area. Compliance with EN standards is generally voluntary, but it becomes mandatory when referenced in legal texts, such as EU regulations or directives. The development process involves various working groups and committees, with input from industry, consumers, and governmental bodies.

EN standards cover a vast range of sectors, including construction, electrical equipment, machinery, environmental protection, and information technology. Their existence simplifies market access for businesses by providing a common set of technical requirements. Furthermore, EN standards contribute to product safety, quality, and environmental sustainability. The process of developing and adopting these standards is crucial for the functioning of the European single market.
