Multiple Editions of the Same Standard

Some standards are published in collaboration between multiple standardization organizations, such as ISO/IEC. Standard Norge and the Norwegian Electrotechnical Committee can also adopt ISO/IEC standards, which may result in multiple editions of the same standard, such as NS-EN ISO/IEC (or NS-ISO/IEC) and NEK ISO/IEC. The content of the documents remains identical.
