Scope

All power transformer included in the scope of TC14

Purpose

CLC/CT14 discussed the interest of preparing some regulatory guidelines at European level to define and standardize the preparation of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for power transformers. It then decided to open a NWIP that will be entrusted to WG32. As per resolution 74.02 of CLC/TC14 (ref. TC14/Sec/0697/RM and TC14/Sec/0698/R of 03/03/25) this new standard will be under the EN50708 series with the numbering EN50708-1-202.
