— The terms ‘standard’, ‘national standard’, ‘European standard’, ‘harmonised standard’ and ‘international standard’ are subject to concrete definitions in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012. — Standards are technical specifications and are therefore useful and effective in promoting and disseminating good technical practises and technical solutions. — Standards are in themselves of voluntary application. — Harmonised standards are European standards adopted on the basis of a request made by the Commission for the application of Union harmonisation legislation. — If references of harmonised standards have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), they provide a presumption of conformity with the essential or other legislative (181) requirements they aim to cover.
