Make your voice heard in standards development

Before a European or Belgian standard is published, the draft first goes to a public consultation. This is your chance to give feedback and reflect on guidelines that work for everyone.

Why should you participate?

Impact on practice

Your feedback helps create standards that are practical and relevant.

Inclusion

Public consultation gives everyone a voice, regardless of your expertise.

Better standards

Together we ensure that standards match the needs of society and industry.

How to make your voice heard

Consult and comment on Belgian and European (CEN) standards

Through NBN's Public Portal you can review and comment on Belgian and European draft standardisation deliverables. Moreover, you can consult Belgian standards referred to in Belgian legislation.

Update European (CENELEC) and international (IEC) electrical engineering standards

This is done in Belgium by the BEC. Here, too, you can give feedback on standards drafts.
