This European Standard was approved by CEN on 1996-10-20. CEN members are
bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the
conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard
without any alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards
may be obtained on application to the Central Secretariat or to any CEN member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German).
A version in any other language made by translation under the responsibility of a
CEN member into its own language and notified to the Central Secretariat has the
same status as the official versions.
CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Denmark,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands,
Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

progression from table 2 to table 3 and from annex B to annex C.
So they should not be considered as equivalent as regards
inspection severity. The severity criteria and the severity levels
can differ from one part of a casting to another due, for example,
to any stresses applied.
1) It should be noted that several equivalent severity levels defined by table 3 are represented by the same reference figure as shown in
table 4. In certain cases, the equivalence of the figure is only approximate because of slight differences in the parameters in table 3. In
sych cases the equivalences are indicated by 1) in table 4.
2) If the casting surface is smaller in area than the reference surface area, the surface of the indications should be proportionally
reduced.
