From Chris Pearson;
“What would be very helpful would be to know why the changes have been proposed. If it is a matter of falling in line with CENELEC and IEC, so be it. If there is good engineering or scientific evidence, let us know so that we may make a properly reasoned response.”
Would it be churlish to suggest that commercial interests have tentacles in these committees? As I understand it, certain manufacturers have invested a clean fortune in the research and development of these devices and they now demand pay off!
Or there are shareholders in all the committees. I mean, if there was a meaningful statistic as to how many lives these devices save why is it so hard to find. And from a developed nation, not the third world electrical installs and boards that Americans install, that look like the 40 year old stuff we rip out
