INTRODUCTION

It has been a ssumed in the drafting of this International s tandard t hat the execution of i ts provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced persons.

This standard recognizes the internationally accepted level of protection against hazards such as e lectrical, mechanical, thermal, fire and radiation o f appliances w hen operated a s in normal use taking i nto account the manufacturer's instructions. I t also covers abnormal situations that can be e xpected in p ractice and takes into account the way in w hich electromagnetic phenomena can affect the safe operation of appliances.

This s tandard takes into a ccount t he r equirements of IEC 60364 a s far as possible s o that there is compatibility with the wiring rules when the appliance is connected to the supply mains. However, national wiring rules may differ.

If an appliance within t he s cope of t his s tandard also i ncorporates f unctions t hat a re c overed by another part 2 of I EC 60335, t he r elevant part 2 is applied to e ach function s eparately, as far as i s reasonable. If applicable, the influence of o ne function on t he o ther i s taken into account.

When a part 2 standard d oes not include additional r equirements to c over hazards d ealt with in Part 1, Part 1 applies.

NOTE 1 This means that the technical committees responsible for the part 2 standards have determined that it is not n ecessary to s pecify particular requirements for the appliance in question o ver and above the general requirements.
