Amendement 1
This draft amendment is submitted to CEN members for enquiry. It has been drawn up by the Technical Committee CEN/TC 182.
This draft amendment A1, if approved, will modify the European Standard EN 378-1:2008. If this draft becomes an amendment, CEN
members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for inclusion of this amendment
into the relevant national standard without any alteration.
This draft amendment was established by CEN in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made
by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN Management Centre has the same
status as the official versions.
