Standards

These requirements cover temporary-use, seasonal decorative-lighting products and accessories with a maximum input voltage rating of 120 V to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Temporary-use is considered to be a period of installation and use not exceeding 90 days. 1.2 These requirements cover factory-assembled seasonal lighting strings with push-in, midget-screw, or miniature-screw lampholders connected in series for across-the-line use or with candelabra- or intermediate-screw lampholders connected in parallel for direct-connection use. These requirements also cover factory-assembled seasonal decorative outfits such as wreaths, stars, light sculptures, crosses, candles or candle sets without lamp shades, products in the shape of, or in resemblance to, Christmas trees with simulated branches and needles, products in the shape of, or in resemblance to, wreaths provided with simulated branches and needles, blow-molded figures or objects, animated figures, tree tops, controllers, tree stands, electric tree poles, and motorized decorative displays.

This International Standards specifics requirements for self-declared environmental claims including statements symbols and graphic , regarding products . It further describes selected terms commonly used in environmental claims and give qualifications for their use. This international standard also describes a general evaluation and verification methodology for self-declared environmental claims and specific evaluation and verification methods for the selected claims in this standard. The International standards does not preclude , override, or in any way change legally required environmental information, claims or labelling or any other application legal requirements.

This International Standard establishes the principles and procedures for developing type 1 environmental labelling programmers including the selection of products catalogues, product environmental criteria and product function characteristics and for assessing and demonstrating compliance . This International standard also establishes the certification procedures for awarding the label.

This standard describes the requirements and operational parameters for electrical appliance protectors for use with equipment at normal voltage of 110V, 120V,220V, 240V and a current of up to including 40 A.

This Standard specifies permissible/allowable noise levels for commercial, industrial, residential, institutional, educational, construction, transportation and recreational receptors in Guyana. This Standard will operate under the Environmental Protection (Noise Management) Regulations 2000.

This British Standard specifies requirements for the construction dimensions and mechanical and electrical properties of non- armoured polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulated cables for operation at voltages up to and including 450 V a.c. to earth and 750 V a.c between conductors, intended for electric power lighting and internal wiring.

This Technical Report provides examples of EPE that represent a range of applications from simple to elaborate.  They also represent a range of organizations (e.g., manufacturing and service companies; non-governmental organizations; government agencies; small medium and range enterprises; organizations with and without certified environmental management systems) and geographic locations.

This International Standard provides guidance on the establishment, implementation, maintenance and improvement of an environmental management system and its coordination with other management systems. The guidelines in ISO 14004:2004 are applicable to any organization, regardless of its size, type, location or level of maturity. While the guidelines in ISO 14004:2004 are consistent with the ISO 14001:2004 environmental management system model, they are not intended to provide interpretations of the requirements of ISO 14001:2004.

This International Standard provides guidance on how to conduct an EASO through a systematic process of identifying environmental aspects and environmental issues and determining, if appropriate, their business consequences. It covers the roles and responsibilities of the parties to the assessment (the client, the assessor and the representative of the assess), and the stages of the assessment process (planning, information gathering and validation, evaluation and

reporting). 

This part of ISO 14064 specifies principles and requirements at the organization level for quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals. It includes requirements for the design, development, management, reporting and verification of an organization’s GHG inventory. ISO 14064 is GHG programme neutral. If a GHG programme is applicable, requirements of that GHG programme are additional to the requirements of ISO 14064.
