Regulatory calendar
The fixed EU dates behind our guides, on one timeline. Standards apply per tender and have no single deadline.

Standards map
Six regulations and standards against eight scope areas of an electrical package. Select a row to see what it asks of your bid.
In a real tender
ScopeSense reads the tender, extracts the items and checks them against DIN VDE, IEC and EU rules. What is required but not covered becomes a flagged gap or an RFI.

How to use these guides
Guides summarise EU rules for estimating work. The official text and your tender documents take precedence.
Every guide shows when it was last updated. When a rule changes, the guide is revised and re-dated.
Standards exist in several editions. Price against the one your tender names, and raise an RFI when it names none.
