Interim evaluation of the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU
The first Low Voltage Directive (LVD), Council Directive 73/23/EEC, was adopted in 1973 as one of the European Union’s first product harmonisation directives. It introduced the obligation to ensure that electrical equipment placed on the market is safe, which is still the core of the Directive today.
No fundamental evaluation or impact assessment has been carried out prior to adopting the most recent version. The scope of this evaluation covers the functioning of the LVD including monitoring of the implementation as well as it will cover the operation of the conformity assessment. The primary objective is to evaluate the degree to which the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU (LVD) has achieved its original objectives as regards effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, relevance and EU added value.
