What are standards and guidelines?

• DIN-Standard
  DIN standards are widely used in Germany. These are prepared by the German Institute for Standardization (DIN) and distributed by the Beuth-Verlag. Compliance with DIN standards is not binding. However, it is often required or at least recommended by law in many industries and sectors (e.g. the construction industry, electrical engineering, the automotive industry or medical technology)
  The designation of a DIN standard, consists of the 3 letters "DIN", a number and a date of publication:
  Example: DIN 43147:1989-06
• DIN EN Standard
  The DIN EN standards ("German Industrial Standard European Standard) are European standards that are valid in all EU countries. They are an important part of European harmonization.
  These standards are developed in cooperation with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the International Standards Organization (ISO). Existing DIN standards are often taken as a basis and supplemented for the European market.
  The designation of a DIN EN standard, consists of the 5 letters "DIN EN", a number and a date of publication:
  Example: DIN EN 43147:1989-06
• ISO- Standard
  ISO standards are developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). These standards are used in many countries around the world.
  The designation of an ISO standard, consists of the 3 letters "ISO", a number and a year of publication:
  Example: ISO 9001:2015
• VDI/VDE Guidelines
  The VDI/VDE guidelines are developed and published. by the Association of German Engineers/Association of German Electrical Engineers. Compliance with VDI/VDE guidelines is recommended or mandatory in many industries and or prescribed. VDI/VDE guidelines are also internationally recognized and are often used as reference standards in other countries. The guidelines are practice-oriented and mainly refer to technical areas, such as measurement and control technology, electrical engineering, environmental technology or information technology.
• ASTM E
  The standards labeled ASTM E are specific standards developed by ASTM International (formerly known as the American Society for Testing and Materials). ASTM International is a globally recognized organization that develops and publishes technical standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems and services. “ASTM” stands for American Society for Testing and Materials, the organization that created the standard. The letter “E” designates a special series within the ASTM nomenclature. Standards with the prefix “E” mainly relate to test methods, environmental technology, materials science and similar areas.
• CEN / CENELEC
  CEN stands for the European Committee for Standardization (French: Comité Européen de Normalisation, English: European Committee for Standardization). CEN is one of the three major European standardization organizations, CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) and ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute). Telecommunications Standards Institute. CEN develops European standards (EN) in various areas in order to facilitate trade and cooperation between European countries.
  
  Other international standards with recognition by the national standards authority
  
  • SN EN IEC
    This is a Swiss standard that has been adopted by the Swiss Association for Standardization (SNV) and is valid as an international standard in Switzerland. An SN EN IEC standard therefore means that a standard that was originally created by the IEC has been recognized as a European standard (EN) and adopted by Switzerland (SN). Such standards are often relevant in electrical engineering, electronics and related areas and help to ensure international uniformity and compatibility.
  • ABNT NBR
    The ABNT NBR standards are technical standards developed in Brazil by the Brazilian Institute for Standardization (Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas, ABNT) in Brazil. These standards cover various areas, including technical specifications, procedural instructions and safety standards. ABNT stands for the Brazilian Standards Organization, while NBR stands for Norma Brasileira (Brazilian Standard). These standards are binding in Brazil and serve to ensure uniform standards and quality guidelines in various industries.
  • BE EN IEC
    The prefix “BE” stands for Belgium and indicates that the standard has been adopted by a Belgian standardization body, such as the NBN (Bureau de Normalisation), as a national standard.
    
  • BS
    The prefix “BS” stands for “British Standard”. These standards define requirements, specifications and guidelines for products, services and systems to ensure quality, safety and efficiency.
  • NF EN IEC
    The prefix “NF” stands for “Norme Française” and indicates that the standard has been adopted by AFNOR (Association Française de Normalisation) and published as a national standard in France.
    
  • OVE EN IEC
    The prefix “OVE” stands for “Austrian Association for Electrical Engineering”. This indicates that the standard has been adopted by the Austrian national standards organization and published as a national standard in Austria.
  • UNE EN IEC
    The prefix “UNE” stands for “Una Norma Española” (a Spanish standard). It indicates that the standard has been adopted by the Spanish standards organization AENOR and published as a national standard in Spain.
