  • Deals with the electromagnetic emission (radio frequency protection) of machine tools, excluding electro discharge machines (EDM), designed exclusively for industrial and similar purposes that use electricity, the rated voltage of the machine tool not exceeding 1 000 V AC or 1 500 V DC between(...)
  • Applies to electrical equipment using signals in the frequency range 1.6 MHz to 30 MHz to transmit information on low voltage electrical systems, either on the public supply system or within installations in consumers' premises.It does not specify the signal modulation methods nor the coding(...)
  • Applies to newly manufactured watt-hour meters, measuring active electrical energy, intended for residential, commercial and light industrial use, for use on 50 Hz electrical networks. It specifies general requirements and type tests methods. It applies to electromechanical or static watt-hour(...)
  • This product family standard sets the minimum level of EMC performance for HBES/BACS products intended to be connected to an HBES/BACS system. A set of devices connected to perform a stand alone application is not considered to be an HBES/BACS system and therefore are outside the scope of this(...)
  • Specifies requirements for emissions originating from within wire-line telecommunication networks using telephone wires and the immunity of those networks, including their in-premises extensions by references to harmonised EMC product standards and other standards with EMC requirements in(...)
  • Deals with the electromagnetic immunity of appliances and similar apparatus for household and similar purposes that use electricity, as well as electric toys and electric tools, the rated voltage of the apparatus being not more than 250 V for single-phase apparatus to be connected to phase and(...)
  • Applies to the use of electrical and electronic equipment to sewing machines, units and systems, designed specifically for professional use in the sewing industry. Needs to be used in conjunction with EN 60204-1.
  • Applies to low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies (type-tested assemblies (TTA) and partially type-tested assemblies (PTTA)), the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1 000 V a.c. at frequencies not exceeding 1 000 Hz, or 1 500 V d.c.
  • Applies to electronic switches and to associated electronic extension units for household and similar fixed electrical installations either indoors or outdoors.
  • Applies to automatic electrical burner control systems for the automatic control of burners for oil, gas, coal or other combustibles for household and similar use including heating, air conditioning and similar use. To be used in conjunction with EN 60730-1 (second edition).
  • Applies to automatic electrical pressure sensing controls with a minimum gauge pressure rating of -60 kPa and a maximum gauge pressure rating of 4,2 MPa, for use in, on or in association with, equipment for household and similar use that may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal(...)
  • Applies to timers and time switches for household and similar use that may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc. or a combination thereof, including heating, air conditioning and similar applications. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition(...)
  • Applies to electrically operated water valves for use in, or in association with, equipment for household and similar use (for applications such as heating, air conditioning and similar). Specifies requirements for electrical features of water valves and for mechanical features that affect(...)
  • Applies to automatic electrical temperature sensing controls for use in, on or in association with equipment for household and similar use, including electrical controls for heating, air-conditioning and similar applications. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar(...)
  • Applies to electric actuators for use in, on, or in association with equipment for household and similar use for heating, air-conditioning and ventilation. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc., or a combination thereof.
  • Applies to automatic electrical air flow, water flow and water level sensing controls for use in, or in association with, boilers with a maximum pressure rating of 2 000 kPA (20 bar) and equipment for general household and similar use including controls for heating, air- conditioning and(...)
  • Applies to automatic electrical water and air flow sensing controls for use in, on or in association with equipment for household and similar use including controls for heating, air conditioning and similar applications. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal(...)
  • Applies to automatic electrical controls for use in, on, or in association with equipment for household and similar use, including controls for heating, air conditioning and similar applications. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc., or a(...)
  • Specifies classes for environmental conditions under which telecontrol equipment has to operate.
  • Applies to the types of equipment whose main contacts are intended to be connected to circuits the rated voltage of which does not exceed 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V d.c. Starters and/or contactors dealt with in this standard are not normally designed to interrupt short-circuit currents.
