Most of the standards listed below support the application of the Directive 2011/65/EU on the Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (recast). This Directive lays down rules on the restriction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with a view to contributing to the protection of human health and the environment, including the environmentally sound recovery and disposal of waste EEE.
