Overview
HD 60364-4-41:2017/A12:2019 is a CENELEC harmonization document amending the European guidance for low‑voltage electrical installations - Part 4‑41: Protection for safety - Protection against electric shock. Amendment A12 (published August 2019; approved 2019‑07‑17) updates national implementation details (Annex ZB) and clarifies country‑specific deviations (notably Spain). This document is part of the HD/HD 60364 family used by national electrotechnical committees across CENELEC member countries.
Key topics and requirements
The amendment itself focuses on harmonization and national deviations, but the base Part 4‑41 addresses the overarching subject of protection against electric shock in low‑voltage installations. Key technical topics typically covered in this part include:
- Concepts of protection for safety in LV installations (protection against direct and indirect contact)
- Protective measures and systems such as basic protection, fault protection, and protective separation
- Use of protective devices and measures to reduce shock risk (e.g., barriers, insulation, equipotential bonding, automatic disconnection)
- Definition and treatment of extra‑low voltage (ELV) limits and national exceptions
Specific to this amendment (A12):
- Annex ZB is modified to include an A‑deviation for Spain.
- Spain’s wiring rules set a different upper limit for ELV in d.c. as 75 V (deviation from the HD value).
- Implementation timetable: national adoption (dop) by 2020‑07‑17 and withdrawal of conflicting national standards by 2022‑07‑17.
- The document cautions that some elements may be subject to patent rights.
Practical applications
This harmonization amendment and the Part 4‑41 content are used by:
- Electrical designers and consulting engineers ensuring safety in building and industrial LV installations
- Installers, contractors and site electricians implementing protective measures on site
- Certification bodies and inspection authorities assessing compliance with European/national wiring rules
- National standards committees and regulators adopting or endorsing the harmonized text
- Manufacturers of electrical equipment who need to align products with protection principles and national ELV limits
Related standards and notes
- HD 60364‑4‑41 is part of the broader HD/IEC 60364 series on low‑voltage installations (refer to national adoptions/endorsements for authoritative text).
- Being a CENELEC harmonization document, it is intended for implementation by CENELEC members; check the CEN‑CENELEC Management Centre for up‑to‑date national status and bibliographic references.
