Coverage of Essential Requirements of EU Directives
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association to provide a means of conforming to the
Essential Requirements given in Annex I of EU Directive 93/42/EEC.
General Guidance:
Once this standard will be cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive,
compliance with the clauses of this standard given in Table ZZ.1 confers, within the limits of the scope
of this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding Essential Requirements (ERs) of
that Directive and associated EFTA regulations.
NOTE 1 The standard’s scope is limited to the specific uses, environments, contexts, objective situations
specifically indicated. It cannot provide for presumption of conformity in other conditions. Some clauses or
subclauses may be not applicable due to the specific type of equipment under consideration.
NOTE 2 Only prescriptions contained in the normative parts of the text are relevant to the presumption of
conformity of this standard. Informative parts may, however, support users to interpret such prescriptions
correctly.
NOTE 3 Where a reference from a clause of this standard to the risk management process is made, the risk
management process needs to be in compliance with Directive 93/42/EEC. This means that risks have to be
reduced "as far as possible", "to a minimum", "to the lowest possible level", "minimized" or "removed", according
to the wording of the corresponding essential requirement which must be interpreted and applied in such a way as
to take account of technology and practice existing at the time of design and of technical and economical
considerations compatible with a high level of protection of health and safety.
NOTE 4 The manufacturer’s policy for determining acceptable risk must be in compliance with essential
requirements 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12 of the directive.
NOTE 5 For all parts of this standard that a) refer in their clauses to specific national legislation possibly
exempting manufacturers from the thorough application of relevant provisions of this standard or b) link the
completion of a relevant process/prescription to any discretional choice/power of manufacturers, the user of the
standard should check that such clauses are in compliance with Directive 93/42/EEC.
NOTE 6 This Annex ZZ is based on Normative References according to Annex ZA, replacing the references in
the core text.
WARNING: Other requirements and other EU Directives and Regulations may be applicable to
the product(s) falling within the scope of this standard.
