STANDARDS & GUIDELINES

STANDARDS - GENERALLY

• Some standards are mandatory from regulations – ”Code”

• Most standards are not mandatory

• API, ISO, IP, EN, etc. are considered “recognised standards”

• Standards represents “best practice” and a lot of experience

• Further they provide standardised approaches on design features
