102 INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION
103 ____________
105 AUTOMATIC ELECTRICAL CONTROLS –
107 Part 2-9: Particular requirements for temperature sensing controls
109 FOREWORD
110 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
111 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
112 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
113 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
114 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
115 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
116 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
117 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
118 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
119 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
120 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
121 interested IEC National Committees.
122 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
123 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
124 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
125 misinterpretation by any end user.
126 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
127 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
128 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
129 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
130 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
131 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
132 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
133 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
134 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
135 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
136 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
137 Publications.
138 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
139 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
140 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
141 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
142 IEC 60730-2-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 72: AUTOMATIC ELECTRICAL
143 CONTROLS. It is an International Standard.
144 This 5.0 edition cancels and replaces Edition 4 and Amendment 1:2018-01 and Amendment
145 2:2020-04. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
146 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
147 edition:
148 a) adoption to IEC 60730-1 Ed.6.0 with all of its significant changes to IEC 60730-1 Ed.5.2,
149 The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
Draft Report on voting
XX/XX/FDIS XX/XX/RVD
151 Full information on the voting for its approval can be found in the report on voting indicated in
152 the above table.
IEC CDV IEC 60730-2-9 ED5 © IEC 2024 -6- 72/1428/CDV

153 The language used for the development of this International Standard is English
154 This document was drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, and developed in
155 accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 and ISO/IEC Directives, IEC Supplement, available
156 at www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs. The main document types developed by IEC are
157 described in greater detail at www.iec.ch/publications.
158 A list of all parts of the IEC 60730 series, under the general title: AUTOMATIC ELECTRICAL
159 CONTROL, can be found on the IEC website.
160 This part 2-9 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60730-1. It was established on the
161 basis of the sixth edition of that standard (2022). Consideration may be given to future editions
162 of, or amendments to, IEC 60730-1.
163 This part 2-9 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60730-1, so as to
164 convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for temperature sensing
165 controls.
166 Where this part 2-9 states "addition", "modification" or "replacement", the relevant requirement,
167 test specification or explanatory matter in part 1 should be adapted accordingly.
168 Where no change is necessary part 2-9 indicates that the relevant clause or subclause applies.
169 In the development of a fully international standard it has been necessary to take into
170 consideration the differing requirements resulting from practical experience in various parts of
171 the world and to recognize the variation in national electrical systems and wiring rules.
172 The reader's attention is drawn to the fact that Annex R, Annex S and Annex T list all of the "in-
173 some-country" clauses on differing practices of a less permanent nature relating to the subject
174 of this document.
175 In this publication:
176 1) The following print types are used:
177 – requirements proper: in roman type;
178 – test specifications: in italic type;
179 – explanatory matter: in smaller roman type.
180 – Defined terms: bold type.
181 2) Subclauses, notes or items which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting
182 from 101, additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.
186 The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
187 stability date indicated on the IEC website under webstore.iec.ch in the data related to the
188 specific document. At this date, the document will be
189 • reconfirmed,
190 • withdrawn,
191 • replaced by a revised edition, or
192 • amended.

200 1 Scope
201 This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following:
202 This document applies to temperature sensing controls
203 • for use in, on, or in association with equipment for household appliance and similar use,
204 including equipment for heating, air-conditioning and similar applications. The equipment
205 may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc., or a combination thereof.
206 NOTE 1 Throughout this document, the word "equipment" means "appliance and equipment" " and „controls“ means
207 „temperature sensing controls“.
208 • for building automation within the scope of ISO 16484 series and IEC 63044 series
209 (HBES/BACS);
210 EXAMPLE 1 Independently mounted temperature sensing controls, controls in smart grid systems and controls for
211 building automation systems within the scope of ISO 16484-2.
212 • for equipment that is used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used in shops,
213 offices, hospitals, farms and commercial and industrial applications;
214 EXAMPLE 2 Controls for commercial catering, heating and air-conditioning equipment.
215 • that are smart enabled controls;
216 EXAMPLE 3 Smart grid control, remote interfaces/control of energy-consuming equipment including computer or
217 smart phone.
218 • that are AC or DC powered controls with a rated voltage not exceeding 690 V AC or 600 V
219 DC where the DC source is provided by primary or secondary batteries;
220 • used in, on, or in association with equipment that use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar
221 thermal energy, etc., or a combination thereof;
222 • utilized as part of a control system or controls which are mechanically integral with
223 multifunctional controls having non-electrical outputs;
224 • using NTC or PTC thermistors and to discrete thermistors, requirements for which are
225 contained in Annex J;
226 • that have electrical circuits and control circuits which are, for example, operated by
227 bimetals, magnet coils, memory metals, pressure elements, temperature-sensitive
228 expansion elements or electronic elements.
229 • as well as manual controls when such are electrically and/or mechanically integral with
230 automatic controls.
231 NOTE 2 Requirements for manually actuated mechanical switches not forming part of an automatic control are
232 contained in IEC 61058-1-1.
233 This document applies to
234 – the inherent safety of automatic electrical controls, and
235 – functional safety of temperature sensing controls and safety related systems,
236 – controls where the performance (for example the effect of EMC phenomena) of the product
237 can impair the overall safety and performance of the controlled system,
238 – the operating values, operating times, and operating sequences where such are associated
239 with equipment safety and to the testing of automatic electrical temperature sensing
240 control devices used in, or in association with, equipment.
241 EXAMPLE 4 boiler thermostats, fan controls, temperature limiters and thermal cut-outs.

IEC CDV IEC 60730-2-9 ED5 © IEC 2024 -9- 72/1428/CDV

242 – electrical safety of temperature sensing controls with non-electrical outputs such as
243 refrigerant flow and gas controls.
244 – single operation devices as defined in this standard.
245 This document specifies the requirements for construction, operation and testing of automatic
246 electrical controls used in, on, or in association with an equipment.
247 This document does not
248 • apply to automatic electrical temperature sensing controls intended exclusively for
249 industrial process applications unless explicitly mentioned in the relevant part 2 or the
250 equipment standard. However, this document can be applied to evaluate automatic electrical
251 controls intended specifically for industrial applications in cases where no relevant safety
252 standard exists.
253 • take into account the response value of an automatic action of a control, if such a response
254 value is dependent upon the method of mounting the control in the equipment. Where a
255 response value is of significant purpose for the protection of the user, or surroundings, the
256 value defined in the appropriate equipment standard or as determined by the manufacturer
257 will apply.
258 • address the integrity of the output signal to the network devices, such as interoperability
259 with other devices unless it has been evaluated as part of the control system.
