About CENELEC

The European Electrotechnical Committee for Standardization is one of three European Standardization Organizations (together with CEN and ETSI) that have been officially recognized by the European Union and by the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) as being responsible for developing and defining voluntary standards at European level.

NOTE: A Reporting Secretariat (SR) provides information to the CENELEC Technical Board on any work of IEC Technical Committees or Subcommittees which could be of interest for CENELEC. Although most of the European standardisation work is undertaken within CENELEC Technical Committees or Subcommittees, certain work items may be allocated to Reporting Secretariats. Hence for Reporting Secretariats only those work items are indicated that are not taken up by any CENELEC TC or SC.
