Alarm systems - Intrusion and hold-up systems - Part 6: Power supplies
This European Standard specifies the requirements, performance criteria and testing procedures for PS to be used as part of Intrusion and Hold up Alarm Systems. The PS will either be an integral part of an I&HAS component or stand-alone. The control functions of the PS may be incorporated as part of the PS device, or may be provided by another I&HAS component, e.g. a CIE. This European Standard is not applicable when the PS requirements for I&HAS components are included within the relevant product standard. The requirements correspond to each of the four security grades given in the European Standard EN 50131 1, Alarm Systems – Intrusion and Hold-Up Systems - Part 1: System requirements. Requirements are also given for four environmental classes covering applications in indoor and outdoor locations. This standard covers: a) mandatory functions which will be provided on all PS; and b) optional functions which may be provided. This European Standard does not deal with requirements for compliance with EC regulatory Directives, such as the EMC Directive, Low Voltage Directive, etc. except that it specifies the equipment operating conditions and reduced functional test for EMC susceptibility testing as required by EN 50130 4. Other functions associated with I&HAS not specified in this standard may be provided. Such functions will not affect the requirements of any mandatory or optional functions.

Overview
EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021 (CLC) is the European standard that specifies requirements, performance criteria and test methods for power supplies (PS) used in intrusion and hold‑up alarm systems (I&HAS). It applies to PS whether integrated into an I&HAS component or provided as a stand‑alone unit. The amendment A1 (2021) updates testing, documentation and fault‑removal behaviour (notably APS Fault/SD recharge conditions). The standard maps requirements to the four security grades of EN 50131‑1 and to four environmental classes for indoor/outdoor use.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope of PS functionality: Mandatory functions required of all PS and optional functions that may be claimed by manufacturers. Optional claims must be tested.
- PS types and tests: Defines PS Type A, B and C and a matrix of mandatory tests per type (reduced functional test; monitoring of EPS, storage device (SD), low output voltage; tamper protections; overload/short‑circuit/deep‑discharge protection; environmental and EMC tests).
- Monitoring & fault handling: Requirements for monitoring External Power Supply (EPS) loss, SD low residual energy, SD failure, and removal of APS Fault messages when SD energy or EPS is restored. The amendment clarifies measurement and pass/fail criteria for APS Fault removal.
- Protection features: Over‑voltage, short‑circuit, overload and deep‑discharge protections; output voltage stability under gradual and switched load variation.
- Tamper protection: Detection of enclosure access, removal from mounting and penetration tests.
- Documentation: Manufacturers must declare SD criteria for low residual energy thresholds, APS fault generation/removal levels and other declared values used for testing and conformity.
- EMC and environmental testing: Specifies operating conditions and reduced functional tests for EMC susceptibility in line with EN 50130‑4 (but does not itself substitute for compliance with EC Directives).
Applications
- Design and qualification of alarm system power supplies for residential, commercial and critical infrastructure security installations.
- Product development and conformity testing for manufacturers of PS modules and integrated alarm components (CIEs).
- Procurement and specification by security system designers, integrators and installers who must select PS meeting required security grades and environmental classes.
- Type testing and certification by test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies.
Who will use this standard
- Power supply and alarm equipment manufacturers
- Security system integrators and specifiers
- Test laboratories and certification bodies
- Technical authors preparing declarations and installation documentation

EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021は、侵入と強盗防止システムにおける電源供給に関する重要なヨーロッパ標準であり、その範囲は非常に広いです。この標準は、侵入および強盗警報システム（I&HAS）の一部として使用される電源装置（PS）の要件、性能基準、および試験手順を明確に定義しています。PSはI&HASコンポーネントの内部部分であるか、独立して使用されるかのいずれかとなります。 この標準の強みは、EN 50131 1で定義されている4つのセキュリティグレードに対応した要求事項が設けられている点です。これにより、異なるセキュリティレベルにおいても一貫した基準が提供され、ユーザーは自分のセキュリティニーズに応じたシステムを構築することができます。さらに、屋内および屋外のアプリケーションに対応した4つの環境クラスに関する要件も含まれており、これは実際の使用環境に応じた柔軟な適応を可能にします。 標準は、すべてのPSに提供される必須機能と、オプションで提供される可能性のある機能を明確に区別しています。このような構造により、設計者やエンジニアは顧客のニーズに応じた電源供給ソリューションを選択することができます。加えて、標準ではEC規制指令（EMC指令、低電圧指令など）への適合要件には関与していませんが、EN 50130 4に基づくEMC感受性試験のための機器動作条件と機能テストの縮小が規定されていることに注目すべきです。 全体として、EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021は、I&HASにおける電源供給要件の標準化において非常に重要な役割を果たしており、業界全体にとって不可欠なリソースとなっています。
The EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021 standard provides a comprehensive framework for the requirements, performance criteria, and testing procedures of power supplies (PS) used within Intrusion and Hold-up Alarm Systems (I&HAS). One of the significant strengths of this standard is its meticulous alignment with the four established security grades outlined in EN 50131 1, ensuring that power supplies meet the specific operational needs corresponding to varying levels of security for intrusion detection systems. The scope delineates that the standard encompasses both integral and standalone power supply units, providing flexibility in implementation across different security systems. This dual applicability increases the standard's relevance in today's diverse market for alarm systems, allowing manufacturers to tailor their products to meet specific needs effectively. Additionally, the delineation of mandatory and optional functions within the standard enhances clarity and usability for manufacturers and users. Mandatory functions ensure that no matter the application, each power supply will deliver essential services, whereas optional functions allow manufacturers the opportunity to innovate and enhance their offerings without compromising compliance to basic standards. The environmental classification included within the standard, which addresses both indoor and outdoor applications, demonstrates a well-rounded approach to protecting and powering critical security systems under varying conditions and scenarios. This makes the standard highly pertinent for users seeking robust solutions that maintain operability regardless of the environment. Furthermore, it is noteworthy that while the EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021 standard does not address compliance with EC regulatory directives, it does highlight necessary equipment operating conditions and outlines reduced functional testing for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), which are crucial for proper integration with other components of I&HAS. In conclusion, EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021 stands out for its thorough treatment of power supplies in the context of alarm system standards, promoting safety and reliability while fostering advancements in security technology through optional performance features. Its relevance in ensuring the comprehensive safety of environments protected by intrusion systems cannot be overstated.
EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021 표준은 침입 및 강탈 경보 시스템의 전원 공급 장치(PS)에 대한 요구 사항, 성능 기준 및 시험 절차를 구체적으로 명시하고 있습니다. 이 표준의 범위는, PS가 침입 및 강탈 경보 시스템(I&HAS)의 구성 요소로 통합되거나 독립적으로 사용될 수 있도록 적용됩니다. PS의 제어 기능은 PS 장치의 일부로 통합되거나, 다른 I&HAS 구성 요소에 의해 제공될 수 있습니다. 이러한 유연성은 시스템 설계 시 각기 다른 요구를 충족할 수 있는 강점을 제공합니다. 또한, EN 50131-6 표준은 유럽 표준 EN 50131-1에 규정된 네 가지 보안 등급과 일치하는 요구 사항을 포함하고 있습니다. 이는 보안 시스템의 전반적인 신뢰성을 보장하며, 사용자가 다양한 보안 요건을 체계적으로 충족할 수 있도록 합니다. 환경 클래스 측면에서도 이 표준은 실내 및 실외 응용 분야를 포괄하는 네 가지 환경 클래스를 정의하여, 다양한 설치 조건을 반영한 대응력을 보여줍니다. EN 50131-6 표준에서 두 가지 중요한 기능이 명시되는데, 첫째는 모든 PS에서 제공해야 하는 필수 기능이고, 둘째는 선택적으로 제공될 수 있는 기능입니다. 이러한 체계적인 접근은 사용자가 특정 요구 사항에 따라 보다 유연하게 시스템을 구성할 수 있게 해줍니다. 또한, 이 표준은 EMC 지침 및 저전압 지침과 같은 EC 규제 지침의 준수 요구 사항을 다루지 않지만, EN 50130-4에서 요구하는 EMC 저항성 테스트를 위한 장비 작동 조건과 축소 기능 테스트를 명시하고 있습니다. 이러한 내용은 사용자가 기술 규격을 충족하면서도, 안전하고 효율적인 시스템을 구현할 수 있도록 도와줍니다. 결론적으로, EN 50131-6:2017/A1:2021 표준은 침입 및 강탈 경보 시스템에 필요한 전원 공급 장치의 설계 및 운영에 있어 필수적인 기준을 제공하며, 사용자에게 신뢰할 수 있는 성능과 다양한 설치 환경에 적합한 솔루션을 제공합니다.
