Safety rules for the construction and installation of lifts - Basics and interpretations - Part 11: Interpretations related to EN 81 family of standards

This Technical Specification is a collection of interpretations related to the EN 81 family of standards (see CEN/TR 81-10:2008). As second issue, this document collects interpretations to EN 81-1:1998, EN 81-2:1998, EN 81-28:2003, EN 81-58:2003, EN 81-70:2003, EN 81-72:2003 and EN 81-73:2005.
Interpretations to other standards of the EN 81 family will be added when they are available.
Interpretations aim to improve the understanding of the clause(s) they are referring to and by that facilitating common understanding between manufacturers, lift installers, notified bodies, inspection bodies and national authorities.
Interpretations do not have the same status as the standards to which they are related. However, the application of interpretations should give to the interested parties confidence that the relevant standard has not been wrongly applied.

Sicherheitsregeln für die Konstruktion und den Einbau von Aufzügen - Grundlagen und Auslegungen - Teil 11: Auslegungen zur Normenreihe EN 81

Diese Technische Spezifikation ist eine Zusammenstellung von Auslegungen, die sich auf die Normenreihe EN 81 beziehen (siehe CEN/TR 81-10:2008). In einem zweiten Schritt enthält dieses Dokument Auslegungen zu EN 81-1:1998, EN 81-2:1998, EN 81-28:2003, EN 81-58:2003, EN 81-70:2003, EN 81-72:2003 und EN 81-73:2005. Auslegungen zu anderen Normen der Normenreihe EN 81 werden aufgenommen, sobald sie zur Verfügung stehen. Auslegungen dienen dazu, das Verständnis der Abschnitte, auf die sie sich beziehen, zu verbessern und dadurch ein gemeinsames Verständnis zwischen Herstellern, Montagebetrieben, Benannten Stellen, Überwachungsstellen und nationalen Behörden zu erleichtern. Auslegungen haben nicht den gleichen Status wie die Normen, auf die sie sich beziehen. Die Anwendung von Auslegungen gibt den beteiligten Kreisen jedoch die Sicherheit, dass die entsprechende Norm nicht falsch angewendet worden ist.

Règles de sécurité pour la construction et l'installation des élévateurs - Fondamentaux et interprétations - Partie 11: Interprétations relatives aux normes de la famille EN 81

La présente Spécification Technique constitue un recueil d'interprétations relatives à la famille des normes EN 81 (voir le CEN/TR 81-10:2008). En tant que deuxième publication, ce document regroupe les interprétations relatives à l’EN 81-1:1998, à l’EN 81-2:1998, à l’EN 81-28:2003, à l’EN 81-58:2003, à l’EN 81-70:2003, à l’EN 81-72:2003 et à l’EN 81-73:2005.
Les interprétations relatives aux autres normes de la famille EN 81 seront ajoutées au fur et à mesure de leur disponibilité.
Les interprétations ont pour objectif d'améliorer la compréhension du ou des articles auxquels elles font référence et de ce fait, de faciliter une compréhension commune entre les fabricants, les installateurs d'ascenseurs, les organismes notifiés, les organismes de contrôle et les autorités nationales.
Les interprétations n'ont pas le même statut que les normes auxquelles elles se réfèrent. Cependant, l'application des interprétations devrait donner l'assurance aux parties intéressées que la norme concernée n'a pas été appliquée de façon erronée.

Varnostna pravila za konstruiranje in vgradnjo dvigal (liftov) - Osnove in razlaga - 11. del: Razlaga v zvezi s standardi družine EN 81

Ta tehnična specifikacija je zbirka razlag, povezanih z družino standardov EN 81 (glej CEN/TR 81-10:2008). V drugi izdaji tega dokumenta so zbrane razlage za EN 81-1:1998, EN 81-2:1998, EN 81-28:2003, EN 81-58:2003, EN 81-70:2003, EN 81-72:2003 in EN 81-73:2005.
Razlage drugih standardov družine EN 81 se bodo dodajale, ko bodo na voljo.
Razlage so namenjene boljšemu razumevanju točk, na katere se sklicujejo, s čimer se poveča splošno razumevanje med proizvajalci, monterji dvigal, priglašenimi organi, nadzornimi organi in nacionalnimi organi.
Razlage nimajo enakega statusa kot standardi, s katerimi so povezane. Vendar bi uporaba razlag morala zainteresiranim stranem dati zaupanje, da ustrezen standard ni bil napačno uporabljen.

Foreword
This document (CEN/TS 81-11:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 10 “Lifts,
escalators and moving walks”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes CEN/TS 81-11:2009.
This document is a collection of interpretations related to the EN 81 family of standards. For the time being
this collection of interpretations relates to the following standards: EN 81-1, EN 81-2, EN 81-28, EN 81-58, EN
81-70, EN 81-72 and EN 81-73. According to the progress in working out interpretations, this document will be
amended and/or completed.
This is the second edition of this CEN Technical Specification. It replaces the former CEN/TS 81-11:2009.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,
Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
Standards reflect the consensus of the best European expertise and are prepared with highest care. Product
standards cannot be formulated in such a way that they describe all possible technical solutions and therefore
exclude all uncertainties regarding the understanding of the required provisions. On the other hand technology
is in a permanent evolution, the progress of which cannot be incorporated into standards quickly enough.
Interpretations are a practical way to give:
a) answers to questions regarding the understanding of clauses in standards;
b) feedback to the CEN-Committee responsible for a standard about the practical experiences resulting from
the use of the standard;
c) guidance to further development and improvement of standards following:
1) experience, especially accidents and incidents;
2) progress in technology;
3) state of the art.
Information concerning the procedure developed by CEN/TC 10 concerning the elaboration of interpretations
is shown in CEN/TR 81-10.
1 Scope
This Technical Specification is a collection of interpretations related to the EN 81 family of standards (see
CEN/TR 81-10:2008). As second issue, this document collects interpretations to EN 81-1:1998, EN 81-
2:1998, EN 81-28:2003, EN 81-58:2003, EN 81-70:2003, EN 81-72:2003 and EN 81-73:2005.
Interpretations to other standards of the EN 81 family will be added when they are available.
Interpretations aim to improve the understanding of the clause(s) they are referring to and by that facilitating
common understanding between manufacturers, lift installers, notified bodies, inspection bodies and national
authorities.
Interpretations do not have the same status as the standards to which they are related. However, the
application of interpretations should give to the interested parties confidence that the relevant standard has
not been wrongly applied.
