United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

For the product(s) and intended use(s) listed below, CEN/Cenelec are requested to specify the following system(s) of attestation of conformity in the relevant harmonized standard(s):

System 3: See CPD, Annex III.2.(ii), second possibility.

Product(s)Intended use(s)Level(s) or class(es)(Resistance to fire)Attestation of conformity system(s)
Plasterboards, blocks, ceiling elements and gypsum plasters,F1fibrous gypsum plaster casts, including relevant ancillary productsIn walls, partitions or ceilings, as relevant, intended for fire protection of structural elements and/or fire compartmentation in buildingsAny3f1

The specification for the system should be such that it can be implemented even where performance does not need to be determined for a certain characteristic, because at least one Member State has no legal requirement at all for such characteristic (see Article 2 (1) of the CPD and, where applicable, clause 1.2.3 of the Interpretative Documents). In those cases the verification of such a characteristic must not be imposed on the manufacturer if he does not wish to declare the performance of the product in that respect.
