Summary

Each year, NAEEEC devotes a considerable portion of its budget to projects that might be described as Standards Development, such as:

Funding of testing designed to develop industry competency with a new or developing Standard.
Funding of testing programs designed to inform the process of the setting of MEPS levels.
Commissioning of round robin testing programs designed to ensure that enforcement programs are based on robust and reproducible test methods.
Provision of technical expertise to Standards Committees.
Assistance to Standards Australia to maintain representation on key international Standards Committees.
Assistance in the development and maintenance of the supply of materials used in testing.

During 2002 NAEEEC committed more than $350,000 to standards development and round robins and a further $105,000 for checktesting. This report details that work, which is reported by appliance type.
