to join the JPEL/64 committee you have to have lots of experience in the trade which you then need to forget about when deciding future regulations it requires you to have no common sense and like pettiness and bureaucracy. If you have any amount of intelligence or initiative then your application will be declined. Its more secretive than the freemasons!

WHY IS IT AN ODD QUESTION

Indeed, nothing more than that. The standards either side of it are completely unrelated.
You can search the standards here: https://bsol.bsigroup.com/Browse/Index

BS 7670-2:1997
Steel nuts and bolts for resistance projection welding.

BS 7672:1993
Specification for compression, stiffness and labelling of anti-embolism hosiery

 

[telectrix]

they actually got the number wrong. should have been BS7691. as they thought about it in '76 and decided to implement it in '91.

 

[Wilko]

I thought it was the number of puzzled looks when you read it cover to cover

 

[dmxtothemax]

Maybe it's officially standard number 7661 out of ? how many (don't know). Is there an official standards office ?

Hit , nail and head spring to mind,

plus of course you need to "lend an ear" to vested interested manufacturers so they can influence your decisions for their profit.
