The UK mittee emphasizes that BS EN 12101-13:2022 deals withthe design of systems to be used in specific applications described therein. Both BS EN 12101-6:2022 and BS EN 12101-13:2022 shouldbe considered in their entirety and only for the types of applicationsdescribed. No clauses designs or values in whole or in part should be used in isolation or as justification for system designs that are outsidethe scope of these standards.
It is the opinion of the UK mittee that BS EN 12101-6:2005 containedAnnex NA identifies these applications along with explanations of how useful guidance for applications monly used in the UK. NationalBS EN 12101-13:2022 can be used to achieve similar design intent. While National Annex NA is informative the UK mittee believes UK userswould benefit from referring to the Annex.
