It's about mains harmonic current emissions. There are four classes,
allowed different amounts of emission. For products falling into Class
D, there are at present no limits on the emission if the active power
input under the specified test conditions is less than 75 W. That is why
'75 W' is a bound and not a limit.

It's all utterly arbitrary and illogical. The 'boundary' between
European and Asiatic Russia follows the line of the Ural Mountains,
largely for ethnographic reasons. Those mountains run along the 60 East
meridian. Projected south, that would include the Middle East almost up
to Iran's eastern border in 'Europe'.

'Caucasian' people originated in the Indus valley, even further east.
and simple words in Urdu and Welsh are still mutually comprehensible.
Demarcation lines are man-made, by force-majeure or for convenience.

Would there be anything RIGHT with that?

But they don't fear that, and Blair and C Rice, who know much more about
it than we do, agree. From Israel's point of view, what they are doing
is ensuring a lasting settlement, not one that just corks the bottle so
it explodes a few years later.

That's not to say that what is happening is laudable; it's not. It's the
dreadful result of bad decisions in the past.

Unfortunately, the EU is an institution dedicated to not deciding and
not acting, and entirely devoted to sitting on the sidelines and
bitching.
