Exporting Electrical Products to Saudi Arabia - Standard 2203:2015 applicable.

Further to the information we published in July concerning the postponement of SASO Standard 2203: 2015 whilst a further review was undertaken, we have now been informed by The Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO)that, with immediate effect, Standard SASO 2203:2015 must now be fully implemented.

The exception to this requirement are clauses:

• 1.0.1
• 4.3.10.4
• 5.5.1
• 5.5.2

which relate to the Conductor Cross Sectional Area, Fuses, and Temperature Rise Test.

In these cases, please refer to the corresponding clauses in SASO 2203:2003 until we inform you of the final revision to SASO 2203:2015.
