Tests previously performed in accordance with provision of this European Standard (same product, same characteristics, test methods, sampling procedure and system of attestation of conformity) may be taken into account. In addition, when a new product (outside an existing range) or product range is developed, appropriate initial type tests shall be carried out in accordance with the Table 1 to confirm that its final properties conform to the requirements of this European Standard.
