Welding mask standards?

Do the auro-darkening masks on ebay from the USA have equivelant or the same standards as ones in the UK?

Thanks,
Martin.

They should be rated EW9 to EW14. Chassis work will be EW9 and making brackets etc EW10. EW14 is for 300A arc welding!

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
