76 FOREWORD
77 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
78 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
79 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
80 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
81 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
82 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
83 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
84 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
85 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
86 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
87 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
88 interested IEC National Committees.
89 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
90 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
91 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
92 misinterpretation by any end user.
93 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
94 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
95 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
96 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
97 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
98 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
99 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
100 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
101 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
102 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
103 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
104 Publications.
105 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
106 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
107 9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
108 patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
109 respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s), which
110 may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent
111 the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at https://patents.iec.ch or
112 www.iso.org/patents. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
113 IEC 60364-7-702 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 64: Electrical installations and
114 protection against electric shock. It is an International Standard.
115 This 4th edition cancels and replaces the 3rd edition published in 2010. This edition constitutes
116 a technical revision.
117 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
118 edition:
119 a) Wording in the standard including the scope was updated to take into account the new
120 design of fountains with or without basin, swimming pools and hot tubs;
Public
IEC 60364-7-702 ED4 © IEC 2025 5
121 b) Requirements were updated to not only focus on pumps and cleaning equipment but also
122 electrical equipment in the vicinity of the presence of water.
123 The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
Draft Report on voting
XX/XX/FDIS XX/XX/RVD
125 Full information on the voting for its approval can be found in the report on voting indicated in
126 the above table.
127 The language used for the development of this International Standard is English.
128 This document was drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, and developed in
129 accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 and ISO/IEC Directives, and IEC Supplement
130 available at ç. The main document types developed by IEC are described in greater detail at
131 www.iec.ch/publications.
132 The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
133 stability date indicated on the IEC website under webstore.iec.ch in the data related to the
134 specific document. At this date, the document will be

140 INTRODUCTION
142 For the purpose of this part (IEC 60364-7-702) the requirements of the general parts 1 to 6 and
143 8 of IEC 60364 apply.
144 The IEC 60364-7-7XX parts of IEC 60364 contain particular requirements for special
145 installations or locations which are based on the requirements of the general parts of IEC 60364
146 (IEC 60364-1 to IEC 60364-6 and IEC 60364-8). These IEC 60364-7-7XX parts are considered
147 in conjunction with the requirements of the general parts.
148 The particular requirements of this part of IEC 60364 supplement, modify or replace certain of
149 the requirements of the general parts of IEC 60364 being valid at the time of publication of this
150 part. The absence of reference to the exclusion of a part or a clause of a general part means
151 that the corresponding clauses of the general part are applicable (undated reference).
152 Requirements of other 7XX parts being relevant for installations covered by this part also apply.
153 This part may therefore also supplement, modify or replace certain of these requirements valid
154 at the time of publication of this part.
155 The clause numbering of this part follows the pattern and corresponding references of
156 IEC 60364. The numbers following the particular number of this part are those of the
157 corresponding parts, or clauses of the other parts of the IEC 60364 series, valid at the time of
158 publication of this part, as indicated in the normative references of this document (dated
159 reference).
160 If requirements or explanations additional to those of the other parts of the IEC 60364 series
161 are needed, the numbering of such items appears as 702.101, 702.102, 702.103 etc.
162 In the case where new or amended general parts with modified numbering were published after
163 this part was issued, the clause numbers referring to a general part in this part 702 may no
164 longer align with the latest edition of the general part. Dated references should be observed.
166 The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed
167 that compliance with this document may involve the use of a patent. IEC takes no position
168 concerning the evidence, validity, and scope of this patent right.
169 The holder of this patent right has assured IEC that s/he is willing to negotiate licences under
170 reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants throughout the world.
171 In this respect, the statement of the holder of this patent right is registered with IEC. Information
172 may be obtained from the patent database available at patents.iec.ch/.
173 Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the
174 subject of patent rights other than those in the patent database. IEC shall not be held
175 responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
