Directive 2000/14/EC is hereby amended as follows:
The table in Article 12 shall be replaced by the following:
a P el for welding generators: conventional welding current multiplied by the conventional load voltage for the lowest value of the duty factor given by the manufacturer. P el for power generators: prime power according to ISO 8528-1:1993, clause 13.3.2 | |||
b The figures for stage II are merely indicative for the following types of equipment:
Definitive figures will depend on amendment of the Directive following the report required in Article 20(1). In the absence of any such amendment, the figures for stage I will continue to apply for stage II. | |||
c For single-engine mobile cranes, the figures for stage I shall continue to apply until 3 January 2008. After that date, stage II figures shall apply. | |||
The permissible sound power level shall be rounded up or down to the nearest integer number (less than 0,5, use lower number; greater than or equal to 0,5, use higher number)’ | |||
