+Context: EN 1838:2024 replaced the 2013 edition. Every CEN member adopts the same text under its own number and
+year (the European foreword names the countries, Italy and Slovenia among them): **UNI EN 1838:2025** in Italy (in
+force 6 Feb 2025, [UNI store](https://store.uni.com/uni-en-1838-2025)), BS EN 1838:2024 in the UK (31 Dec 2024),
+NEN-EN 1838:2025 in the Netherlands, SIST EN 1838:2025 in Slovenia. National legal deviations ("A-deviations") are
+listed in Annex D, which the preview does not reach. It is read with **EN 50172:2024** (system design, duration,
+maintenance). National rules may add to it, for example longer durations.
+
+The changes from 2013 the foreword lists: escape-route requirements now cover the route's **full width**; more
+detail for **points of emphasis** and **specific areas of hazard**; considerations for lockdowns and long periods
+without power, as an informative annex.
