@ Samuël Ça tient la route ma foi ! Je n'ai pas fait de recherche mais ce que vous proposez est convaincant et mériterait une réponse.
Hermien Desaivre (asker) Mar 17, 2023:
@Samuël Buysschaert This makes a lot of sense to me. I will see what client feedback is and let you know. Thank you.
Hermien Desaivre (asker) Mar 17, 2023:
@phil goddard Thank you :-)
Samuël Buysschaert Mar 16, 2023:
HTH/Fwiw Il semblerait que "HP" signifie "Hors-Programme" dans le cadre des programmes d'accréditation du Cofrac.
L'élément suivant HP est ce qui semblerait être le domaine ou sous-domaine d'application pour les essais/tests/analyses.

CHIM pour domaine CHIMIE, ET pour domaine ou sous-domaine ?
Par exemple:
DM = Dispositifs médicaux
ATI= Appareils de traitement de l’information
...

Exemples:
https://tools.cofrac.fr/annexes/sect1/1-1916.pdf (p.8)
https://tools.cofrac.fr/annexes/sect1/1-2078.pdf (p.6)

Je pense que ET pourrait vouloir dire écotoxicologie.

The additional context was for other people's benefit, rather than yours :-)
Hermien Desaivre (asker) Mar 16, 2023:
@phil goddard Yes, but the HP ET and HP CHIM has me floored

Another clue for HP in the same doc: SECURITE / APPAREILS DE DETECTION DE GAZ / Essais de performance ou d’aptitude à la fonction (HP CHIM)

This is about testing tobacco smoke. If I understand correctly, it's done by a machine that smokes the cigarette or other product.

HP ET Sorry, brain is working overtime. I am actually looking for the HP ET part of this. Just thought to put the whole thing there in case it has a specific translation as a term, all together.

smoking tests (HP ET)

What HP stands for is anyone's guess. It is used for a variety of test procedures.
HP ENV is obviously environnementale
HP AA would appear to be agro-alimentaire
HP CHIM = chimie

And it looks as if HP ET is corps étrangers (I mean, the last thing anyone wants in their tobacco is a stray bit of cannabis resin):

Caractérisation des corps étrangers dans des composants électroniques, produits agroalimentaires, cosmétiques et pharmaceutiques (HP ET)
https://www.analyses-surface.com/IMG/pdf/Accreditation_Cofra...

Caractérisation de corps étrangers (HP ET)
https://tools.cofrac.fr/annexes/sect1/1-1720.pdf

It might be necessary to contact COFRAC if the meaning of HP is needed, but it's obviously a code and I think it can be left as such, though the ET bit could be explained parenthetically.

It's counterintuitive to have a programme or test procedure or protocol that is hors programme, but hors programme is what HP seems to mean.

Les programmes ou « hors programmes » relatifs aux essais des matériaux métalliques ont été abrogés
https://tools.cofrac.fr/documentation/lab-gta-16

Le laboratoire EXCELL est accrédité par le COFRAC pour différents types de mesures dans le cadre de programmes d’accréditation classiques ou hors programmes ainsi qu’une accréditation à portée flexible pour le développement et la validation de nouvelles techniques d’analyses.

Et des analyses dérivées, domaines connexes ou "Hors- Programmes" (HP)

Note from asker:
HI there yes HP ET is actually what I am looking for, thanks.

neutral Bourth : The standard is indeed about sampling, but 'fumage' suggests an analytical smoking machine, ISO 20778.
