The Primer on Standards was conceived as an introductory guide to the principles of Electrotechnical Standardization in Europe. As its subtitle indicates, this booklet intends to uncover all the mysteries surrounding this rare but very necessary occupation.

You may download this Primer on Standards so you can read it at your own pace whenever you wish. This guide has proved to be an essential reference document for those who must deal with standardization and don't know where to begin.

Given its immense success, CENELEC has published un updated version of the booklet in Spanish. Pick up your language version below.
