M/495_AM2 - Ecodesign Am2
Amendment No.2 to M/495 - Technical update (Annex ? of M/495) - Details of request to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI for standardisation in the field of Small, Medium and Large Power Transformers in support of Commission Regulation XXX/XXX (ENTR Lot 2)
Amendment No.2 to Mandate M/495 requests CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to update technical standards related to small, medium, and large power transformers. This amendment supports the implementation of the Commission Regulation XXX/XXX under ENTR Lot 2. It focuses on refining Annexes of M/495 to ensure consistency and alignment with current regulatory requirements for ecodesign. The decision concerns the approval or disapproval of this mandate amendment, as referenced in CEN/BT C111/2013. The objective is to facilitate harmonised standards that promote energy efficiency and environmental performance across the transformer sector within the EU.
Purpose
This mandate, identified as M/495_AM2, concerns the second amendment to the original M/495. It provides a technical update specifically focused on the standards related to Small, Medium, and Large Power Transformers. The update aims to support the implementation of the European Commission Regulation XXX/XXX under ENTR Lot 2, which addresses ecodesign requirements.
Standardisation request
The mandate requests CEN (European Committee for Standardization), CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization), and ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) to develop or update European standards for Small, Medium, and Large Power Transformers. These standards are to be aligned with the technical and ecodesign criteria set out by the Commission Regulation referenced, ensuring transformers meet specific energy efficiency and environmental performance levels.
Expected deliverables
The deliverables expected from this mandate include updated or new harmonized European standards that reflect the amended technical specifications of Annex ? of the original M/495. These standards should enable manufacturers and stakeholders to comply with the Ecodesign requirements for transformers under ENTR Lot 2, facilitating market surveillance, environmental protection, and energy savings.
Context
This amendment follows the initial M/495 mandate related to ecodesign requirements for transformers. It reflects ongoing technical developments and regulatory needs to improve energy efficiency of power transformers in the EU market. The (dis-)approval decision was referenced in CEN/BT C111/2013, indicating formal consideration within the European standardisation governance framework. It aligns with the EU’s broader goals to reduce energy consumption and environmental impact in electrical equipment through harmonized standards.
The mandate covers standardisation work related to small, medium, and large power transformers to support the implementation of a Commission regulation under the Ecodesign framework. It focuses on energy-related products within the transformer sector aiming to enhance energy efficiency and environmental performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/495_AM2 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Amendment No.2 to M/495 - Technical update (Annex ? of M/495) - Details of request to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI for standardisation in the field of Small, Medium and Large Power Transformers in support of Commission Regulation XXX/XXX (ENTR Lot 2)". Amendment No.2 to M/495 - Technical update (Annex ? of M/495) - Details of request to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI for standardisation in the field of Small, Medium and Large Power Transformers in support of Commission Regulation XXX/XXX (ENTR Lot 2) There are 0 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
