Note 3: In case of amendments, the referenced standard is EN CCCCC:YYYY, its previous amendments, if
any, and the new, quoted amendment. The superseded standard (column 3) therefore consists of EN
CCCCC:YYYY and its previous amendments, if any, but without the new quoted amendment. On the date
stated, the superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements
of the directive.
