| (1) Nebulous Definition of Electric Wire Industrial Standard | - The definition of electric wire industrial standard is extremely nebulous so that the purchasers of electric wire (including the electricity authority) are unable to compare, side by side by manufacturer, the specifications of the electric wire. Price comparison is only possible on local products by the price in the originating country. Excerpts from Prokas: [In case a matter is not stipulated in the technical standards, IEC standards shall be applied. If it is not covered in the IEC standards, ISO Standards shall be applied. If it is not covered in the ISO Standards, internationally recognized standards shall be applied, subject to the approval by MIME] |
- It is requested that GOC integrates plural standards currently stipulated into a single standard. | - Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy No. 701 Prokas on Establishment of Specific Requirement of Electric Power Technical Standards of The Kingdom of Cambodia |
