Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International
Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Esch member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all
matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The main task of ISO technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In ex-
ceptional circumstances a technical committee may propose the publication of a
Technical Report of one of the following types:
-
type 1, when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an
International Standard, despite repeated efforts;
-
type 2, when the subject is still under technical development or where for any
other reason there is the future but not immediate possibility of an agreement on an
International Standard;
-
type 3, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from
that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for
example).
Technical Reports of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three years of publica-
tion, to decide whether they tan be transformed into International Standards.
Technical Reports of type 3 do not necessarily have to be reviewed until the data they
provide are considered to be no longer valid or useful.
ISO/TR 11071-1, which is a Technical Report of type 3, was prepared by Technical
Committee ISO/TC 178, Lifts, escalators, passenger conveyors.
ISO/TR 11071 consists of the following Parts, under the general title Comparison of
worldwide lift sa fe ty s tandards :

Introduction
At the 1981 plenary meeting of ISO/TC 178, work was begun on a comparison of CEN
Standard EN 81/1 with the American, Canad’an, and USSR safety Codes. In 1983, Working
Group 4 was officially formed to carry out the task of preparing a Cross reference between
the relevant sections of these Standards and to analyze the differentes on selected subjects.
The goal at that time was to prepare a technical report which would provide reference
information to assist national committees when reviewing and revising individual Standards
which may initiate a gradual convergence of the technical requirements. In 1984, the study
was expanded to include the CMEA safety Standard.
The content of this report is based on the information provided by the WG 4 members.
The information which could not be obtained on the CMEA Standard at the time of
publication is noted in the report by a “?” in some of the tables.
This report is intended to aid Standards writers in developing their safety requirements,
and to help Standards users understand the basis for the requirements as they are applied
throughout the world.
This report is not intended to replace existing safety Standards. Conclusions are arrived
at in some cases, but only where there is unanimity amongst the various experts. In other
cases, the reasons for the divergent views are expressed.
This report must be read in conjunction with the various safety Standards, as it was often
necessary to summarize the requirements for the sake of clarifying the comparisons.
Further, the information contained in this report does not necessarily represent the opinions
of the Standards writing organizations responsible for the development of the safety
Standards which are being compared, and they should be consulted regarding
interpretations of their requirements (see Annex B).
