CENELEC as EN 62216-1 on 2002-09-01.

The following dates were fixed:

- latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
 at national level by publication of an identical
 national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2003-09-01

- latest date by which the national standards conflicting
 with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2005-09-01

Annexes designated "normative" are part of the body of the standard.
Annexes designated "informative" are given for information only.
In this standard, Annexes A, B, D and ZA are normative and Annexes C, E, F and G are
informative.
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
