This document defines the purpose, governance and functional requirements of the eInvoicing Registry for CIUS and Extension Specifications. This document is not to be confused with other business / project focused Technical Specifications. It follows CEN rules and will be published as a CEN document with normative statements.
A key part of this document is to provide a functional specification, which will describe the various functions of eInvoice Registry Services.
The Registry is intended to serve as a structured, transparent and publicly accessible repository that facilitates the discovery, registration and management of eInvoicing Specifications that either restrict the conditional elements of the Core Invoice Model and/or extend it in conformance with Part 5 Extension Methodology.
The scope of this document includes:
- Definition of Registry Services - the structure and capabilities of the Registry including the types of artefacts it stores or references, e.g. CIUS, Extension Specifications, Validation Artefacts and Services, and Code Lists;
- Governance Model - the roles and responsibilities of entities involved in managing and maintaining the Registry;
- Submission and Verification Processes - how Specifications are submitted, reviewed and verified for inclusion in the Registry;
- Functional Specification - the required functionality, processes and procedures that enable the Registry to operate efficiently.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the resistance of coatings to one of four defined cycles of wet (salt fog)/dry/humid conditions using specified solutions.

1.1        General
This document specifies methods for determining the sound power level of a noise source from sound pressure levels measured on a surface enveloping the noise source (machinery or equipment) in an environment that approximates to an acoustic free field near one or more reflecting planes. The sound power level produced by the noise source, in frequency bands or with A-weighting applied, is calculated using those measurements.
NOTE   Differently shaped measurement surfaces can yield differing estimates of the sound power level of a given noise source which are accounted for in the uncertainty associated with this test method. An appropriately drafted noise test code (see ISO 12001) gives detailed information on the selection of the surface.
1.2        Types of noise and noise sources
The methods specified in this document are suitable for all types of noise (steady, non-steady, and fluctuating) as defined in ISO 12001, except for short duration, impulsive events.
This document is applicable to all types and sizes of noise source (e.g. stationary or slowly moving component or sub-assembly), provided that the conditions for the measurements can be met.
NOTE   It is possible that the conditions for measurements given in this document are impracticable for very tall or very long sources such as chimneys, ducts, conveyors and multi-source industrial plants. A noise test code for the determination of noise emission of specific sources can provide alternative methods in such cases.
1.3        Test environment
The test environments that are applicable for measurements made in accordance with this document can be located indoors or outdoors, with one or more sound-reflecting planes present on or near which the noise source under test is mounted. The ideal environment is a completely open space with no bounding or reflecting surfaces other than the reflecting plane(s), such as that provided by a qualified hemi-anechoic chamber, but procedures are given for applying corrections (within limits that are specified) in the case of environments that are less than ideal. Annex A or ISO 26101-2 specifies methods for determining the adequacy of the test environment and for determination of corrections to be applied to account for the effect of the test environment.
1.4        Measurement uncertainty
Information is given on the uncertainty of the sound power levels determined in accordance with this document, for measurements made in limited bands of frequency and with frequency A-weighting applied. Annex I specifies procedures for testing laboratories that can be used to reduce measurement uncertainty. The uncertainty conforms to ISO 12001, accuracy grade 2 (engineering grade). General information on measurement uncertainty is provided in this document and additional information can be found in ISO 5114-1[8].
