International activities ISO, European CEN, and French (FR)

General presentation

Standardisation takes place at national, European and international levels. These 3 levels are closely linked at the organisational level, in order to make the whole system more efficient.

Road vehicles

Presentation of ISO/TC 22 & CEN/TC 301

In the automotive sector, most of the standards are from international (ISO) or European origin (EN standards). In this context, the role of the BNA is to involve stakeholders in France in order to develop a national common position on each project of standard.

ISO/TC 22 develops standards for all components and systems for Road Vehicles. This applies to light vehicles (mopeds and motorcycles), passenger cars, commercial vehicles, trucks, buses, on all types of engines (thermal, electric, gaseous fuel).

Reorganized since 2015, ISO/TC 22 consists of 11 subcommittees (SC), 73 working groups (WG). At the end of 2017, ISO/TC 22 published 865 standards. France has managed ISO/TC 22 since its creation in 1947, with the BNA providing the secretariat. The chair is held by Marc CORONA.

CEN/TC 301 was established in 1992 to develop standards for electric vehicles. Its scope has been extended, and is now the European mirror committee of ISO/TC 22 (same scope). Currently, it mainly responds to the European Commission's requests for standardisation. For example, it has recently adopted standards accompanying directives on alternative fuels, interoperability of electric vehicle charging, tachographs, tyre pressure information systems (TPMS), maintenance and repair information (RMI). The secretariat is provided by the BNA, and chaired by Bernard LE BRIS.

Cycles

Presentation ISO/TC 149 & CEN/TC 333

In the field of cycles, the subjects are mainly initiated at European level (CEN/TC 333 "Cycles") and enlarged at international, by ISO/TC 149/SC 1 "Cycles and main sub-assemblies"), in the frame of the VIenna Agreement between ISO and CEN.

List of national committees and coordination groups (Chair) :

BNA-CN-149 "Cycles - Lighting and signalling" (Dominique DEGAS)
BNA-CN-333 "Cycles subassemblies and components " (Gilles LAGANTE)

Emergency systems

Presentation CEN/TC 239

Standards developed are mainly dealing with emergency medical vehicles and their equipment, as well as for first aid equipment, to provide safe and comfortable transportation and preclinical treatment for patients. Standards are mainly of European origin (EN standards developed at CEN/TC239).

List of national committees and coordination groups (Chair):

BNA-CN 239 "Ambulances and rescue system" (Fabien COLLET)
GC 239 Emergency systems" (Yves LAMBERT )
