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

    And a type B for a charging system that puts DC signals on the CPC and a test loop as a cable plugged in detection, and does so always, by design, is a very good idea. Unless there are other measures to avoid escaping DC from blinding a normal RCD, it is actually possible single fault.. That is not the same as any 'normal' domestic load, where there is no DC signalling used to decide if it is safe to power the cable up  or not.
