All the standards bodies work together and unify standards where possible and where there is benefit.

I sit on a British Standards committee.

You have British Standards I.e. BS XXXX

Then if the standard is ratified by the European standards agency such as CEN or CENELEC it gets the EN prefix. I.e. BS EN XXXX

Then if it is adopted as an international standard it becomes an ISO XXXX

Then you have other standards bodies such as ITU and Cigre.

They all talk to each other.
