» Acronyms and Glossary » CENELEC (- European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization)
The European Community for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC) is an international body that works with technical professionals from 22 countries to issue standards pertaining to the European market.
Although CENELEC works towards European harmonization, it is influential at the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), where the SCC represents Canada.

 NEW STANDARDS GUIDELINES FOR EUROPE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
European standardization policy has been brought up to date today as the result of the adoption of new guidelines between the European Commission (EC), the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), and the three official European Standards Organizations (ESOs).
As an example, the creation of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) in 1988 contributed significantly to the restructuring of the European standardization process that was already under way (ETSI subsequently received official recognition as an ESO alongside CEN and CENELEC in the EC Directive 98/34/EEC).
The progressive widening of European policy since the original guidelines were first drawn up has created a role for standards in support of issues such as safety in the workplace, and protection of consumers and the environment.

 The Key Role of Standardization in the European Community
As the European Community (EC) moves closer to a single market, standardization is playing a pivotal role in removing technical barriers to trade in the community and enabling successful attainment of a single market.
An appreciation of the way the standardization process is evolving in the EC will enable manufacturers and suppliers within the community and throughout the world to more accurately evaluate the benefits of the single market.

 European standardization
CEN prepares European Standards (ENs) and standardization documents in all standardization fields except in the electrotechnical and telecommunication fields.
CEN's work is based on openness and transparency (all national bodies must ensure balanced representation in their delegations of the opinions of all interested parties), consensus (agreements between the interested parties), national representation (as a rule, European Standards are adopted by a majority of the votes cast by the national members).
CENELEC works with more than 35,000 technical experts from 22 European countries to prepare, adopt and publish standards for the European market and in support of the New Approach Directives.
