SAFETY OF SMALL POWER TRANSFORMERS, POWER SUPPLY UNITS
AND SIMILAR –
Part 2-8: Particular requirements for bell and
chime transformers
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International standard IEC 61558-2-8 has been prepared by technical committee 96: Small
power transformers, reactors and power supply units and special transformers, reactors and
power supply units: safety requirements.
It has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104: Guide for the
drafting of safety standards, and the role of Committees with safety pilot functions and safety
group functions (1984).
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
96/111/FDIS 96/118/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with IEC 61558-1. It was established on the basis of the
first edition (1997) of that standard.

This part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61558-1, so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for bell and chime
transformers.
When a particular subclause of part 1 is not mentioned in this part 2, that subclause applies as
far as is reasonable. Where this standard states "addition", "modification" or "replacement", the
relevant text of part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
This standard replaces section 3 of chapter III of IEC 60742.
In this standard, the following print types are used:
– requirements proper: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– explanatory matter: in smaller roman type.
In the text of the standard the words in bold are defined in clause 3.
Subclauses which are additional to those in part 1 are numbered starting from 101;
supplementary annexes are entitled AA, BB, etc.

SAFETY OF SMALL POWER TRANSFORMERS, POWER SUPPLY UNITS
AND SIMILAR –
Part 2-8: Particular requirements for bell and
chime transformers
1 Scope
Replacement:
This international standard deals with all aspects of safety such as electrical, thermal and
mechanical.
This part 2-8 of IEC 61558 applies to fixed, single-phase, air-cooled (natural or forced),
indépendant or associated safety isolating transformers for bell and chimes, having a
rated supply voltage not exceeding 250 V a.c., a rated frequency not exceeding 500 Hz, a
rated output not exceeding 100 VA.
The no-load output voltage shall not exceed 33 V a.c. or 46 V ripple free d.c. and the rated
output voltage shall not exceed 24 V a.c. or 33 V ripple free d.c.
Bell and chime transformers are generally intended to supply domestic sound signalling
equipment and other similar devices where the load is applied for short periods of time.
NOTE 1 – A partial load may be applied for illumination purposes.
This standard applies to special safety isolating transformers (transformer for bell and
chime) which are used where double or reinforced insulation between circuits is required by
the installation rules or by the appliance specification.
This standard is applicable to dry-type transformers. The windings may be encapsulated or
non-encapsulated.
NOTE 2 – Attention is drawn to the fact that for transformers intended to be used in tropical countries special
requirements may be necessary.
This standard also applies to transformers incorporating electronic circuits. This standard does
not apply to external circuits and their components intended to be connected to the input and
output terminals or socket-outlets of the transformer.
