Anulación (de una Norma)

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) metrology
I would be very grateful for any suggestions on how to translate 'Anulación de una Norma'. I'm not sure if it's 'cancellation' or 'annulment', or something similar.
Many thanks in advance,

I don't think it matters which synonym you use.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Many thanks for this suggestion Phil. I think in this context, a general overview of how standards are created, 'withdrawn' is perhaps the best translation. In Jennifer's link, BSI also use the term 'withdrawn'. Many thanks to everyone for these suggestions. "

Spanish term (edited): anulación

supersedes

In Asker's context (the image), Anulaciones in the left side of the image is the header for a list of reference numbers of earlier versions of the same standard (same 'core number') that are anuladas as a result of the publication of the newer version.
As explained here (in relation to British Standards, but the principle and terminology is the same):
https://memberportal.bsigroup.com/public/2021/may/when-is-a-...
these older standards are 'superseded' (but may remain 'current') - and this is not the same thing as Phil's 'withdrawn'.

Note from asker:
Thanks Jennifer. This info was very useful.

Note from asker:
Thanks for taking the time to suggest this translation Adrian. I think in this context 'withdrawn' is perhaps the best word to use.
