Post Brexit - Why are we still permitting CENELEC etc to influence how we govern our own engineering affairs?

whjohnson

There seems to be a repeating mantra throughout the youtube presentation which becomes irksome if you listen for long enough. It seems that we just adopt, or rather 'harmonize' without question and then defer the responsibility for decision making back to CENELEC rather than think it through and act for ourselves.

How is it that we allow the tail to wag the dog? Isn't it time that we departed from harmonization and went our own way?

Comments welcome

    but with the occasional four-footed residents I have been thinking I should really put in Type B.

    But why? B-type RCDs generally only differ from A types in their reaction to d.c. currents (or very high frequencies, like F-types) - so can be useful where large d.c. power sources can get into the a.c. loop in fault conditions - unless you've got robot battery powered electronic mice, I'm not sure of the advantage.

    They recognise some waveforms typical of arcing and broader than the truncated sinuses which Type A recognises.
