Italian term or phrase: stato dell'arte attuale

si trova all'interno di un manuale che descrive le norme di sicurezza e i rischi residui di un grosso macchinario industriale. Ho capito che cosa vuol dire ma davvero mi trovo in difficoltà nel renderlo in modo corretto.
La frase per intero è:
"si ritiene di aver seguito lo “stato dell’arte” attuale in quanto si sono applicate le norme armonizzate di riferimento"

Potete darmi una mano con la frase? Anche quel "norme armonizzate" mi crea confusione, non sono sicura d'aver capito.

Standards, be they European or British, should reflect the state of the art at the time they are written.

“state of the art” refers to the current level of knowledge that is generally accepted as being technically sound. It does not mean the most advanced technology.
