Overview
EN 60264-4-2:1994/A1:2004 is a CENELEC amendment to the European standard on packaging of winding wires. Titled Part 4-2: Methods of test – Containers made from thermoplastic material for taper barrelled delivery spools, this document aligns EN practice with IEC 60264-4-2:1992/A1:2003 and records corrigenda published in March 2005. The amendment updates the original 1994 EN text (including numbering conventions), adds Annex ZA for EU applicability, and clarifies the introduction to the IEC series covering wound wire test methods and packaging.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Test methods specifically for containers made from thermoplastic materials intended to house taper-barrelled delivery spools used for winding wires.
- Standard alignment: Confirms that the ET (European) text is identical to IEC Amendment 1 and instructs changes to referenced standard numbers (add 60000 prefix).
- Normative changes: Addition of Annex ZA (for EU relationship) and editorial updates to the introduction to reflect the three-group structure of the winding wire standards series.
- Implementation timeline: Dates for national adoption and withdrawal of conflicting national standards were established when the amendment was approved (CENELEC decision March 2004).
Note: The amendment defines testing methods and harmonizes references rather than introducing new technical performance limits; consult the full EN/IEC document for the complete test procedures.
Applications and who uses it
This amendment is essential for stakeholders involved in the manufacture, testing and procurement of winding wire packaging:
- Winding wire manufacturers - ensure packaging meets recognized EU/IEC test methods for transport and delivery compatibility.
- Packaging designers and thermoplastic suppliers - validate container designs for taper-barrelled spool systems.
- Testing laboratories and quality control - adopt standardized test procedures for compliance verification.
- OEMs (motors, transformers, coils) and procurement teams - specify compliant packaging to reduce handling damage and ensure interchangeability.
- Regulatory and certification bodies - reference the amendment when assessing conformity for European markets.
