This addendum concerns the notification of the Ministerial Decree No.142/2024 (2 pages, in Arabic) that gives the producers and importers a twelve-month transitional period to abide by the Egyptian Standard ES 537-1 for "Comfort fans and regulators for household and similar purposes - Methods for measuring performance" (27 pages, in Arabic).
It should be noted that the Ministerial Decree No. 423/2005 (25 pages, in Arabic) which was formerly notified in G/TBT/N/EGY/3 dated 14 December 2005 mandated among others the earlier version of this Standard and the draft of this standard was formerly notified in G/TBT/N/EGY/3/Add.66 dated 11 March 2024.
Worth mentioning is that this standard is technically identical with IEC 60879:2019
Producers and importers are kept informed of any amendments in the Egyptian standards through the publication of administrative orders in the official gazette.
