  1. Workshop on New Approach Directives for the Engineering IndustryStandardisation and the role of associations Haimo HuhleORGALIME / ZVEITechnical Legislation and Standardisation

  2. Relevance for (electro)industry European electrical and electronic industry requests international standards of IEC: • to sell their products according to one standard in as many countries as possible • “One standard – one test – accepted everywhere” • Dresden Agreement between between IEC and CLC has high importance. • Prerequisites: Global relevance of standards but no essential differents in requirements. • Common regulatory objectives of the states is the goal.

  3. Relevance for (electro)industry

  4. International cooperation of the standardisation bodies

  5. Participation in standardisation in Germany for the EE industry: New standard is required by the market Request to National Committee(in Germany: DKE) Examination by DKE European work item in CENELEC National work item in DKE International work item in IEC TC elaborates draft TC elaborates draft National committee elaborates draft Parallel enquiry Parallel enquiry Public consultation comments comments Parallel voting Parallel voting International IEC standard Adoption European CENELEC Standard Adoption German DIN Standard

  6. Participation in electrotechnical standardisationExample: Germany • DKE has 3.500 experts in 130 committees and 160 subcommittees. • Ca. 0,075 % of a company’s turnover is invested in standardisation. • This sums up to an amount of ca. 120 million Euros per year in DE. • Standardisation is regarded as an economic factor. • ZVEI has the mandate to nominate technical experts for electroindustry to the DKE. • DKE nominates out of their committee members the experts for IEC and CLC TCs.

  7. Participation in electrotechnical standardisationExample: ORGALIME • ORGALIME sends an observer to CENELEC BT meetings • The industry view on “hot issues” in CENELEC BT meetings is prepared in ORGALIME’s Technical Coordinating Committee • ORGALIME has signed a MoU with CENELEC in order to enhance cooperation • Regular policy talks started this year in April • Issues: Future Landscape of European standardisation, the role of the new deliverables, ORGALIME position on standardisation, …

  8. Industry participates in two ways • Industry participation in standardisation is necessary to defend the interests. • In most cases industry cooperates contructively to find the best solutions. • In some cases it is necessary to articulate strong opposition. • Typical example: Management System Standards.

  9. Management system standards • They usually end up in a certification system which costs lots of money while the value of these certificates is often more than low and restricts the freedom to find solutions appropriate for the very company. • In contrast, product standards help companies to cooperate and save costs while keeping the competition for the best product, management system standards bring competition to a field which does not help the customer and raise the costs.

  10. Thank you ... … for listening and asking questions.
