Below you will find a collection of the acronyms & abbreviations used in 300 000 series
ETSs, upto and including ETS 300 250 (PE 32, AP 5, V 26). If you wish to have any items
corrected or added to this list please supply the relevant information to Julian Pritchard or to
the ETSI infoCentre.
If you are looking for an accurate acronym, the easiest way to find it, is to "click" on Find on
the Edit Menu. Then, if you only know the first letter of the abbreviation you are searching,
the following chart will help you.
