Električne igrače - Varnost - Dopolnilo A2
Ta mednarodni standard obravnava varnost igrač, ki imajo vsaj eno funkcijo, odvisno od elektrike. Dodatne zahteve za eksperimentalne sete so podane v dodatku A. Igrače, ki uporabljajo elektriko za sekundarne funkcije, so zajete v obsegu tega standarda. Dodatne zahteve za igrače, ki vsebujejo laserje in svetleče diode, so podane v dodatku E. Da so v skladu s tem standardom, morajo biti električne igrače prav tako v skladu z ISO 8124-1, saj zajema nevarnosti, drugačne od tistih, ki lahko nastanejo zaradi uporabe elektrike.

– Static strength test – for sit-on or stand-on toys;
– Dynamic strength test – for wheeled ride-on toys;
– Tension test – for all toys; however, the force being 70 N ± 2 N independent of the dimensions and
applicable independent of age group;
– Tension test for seams and materials – for toys having textile or other flexible materials covering
batteries or other electrical parts.
NOTE Compliance with EN 71-1 is not checked after the preconditioning. However, the security of the battery compartment cover
is checked (see 14.6 and 14.7).

Annex ZZ
(informative)
Clauses of this European Standard addressing essential requirements or other
provisions of EU Directives
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association to provide a means of conforming to the Essential
Requirements of New Approach Directive 2009/48/EC with respect to the electrical safety of electrical
toys; specifically, to Annex II, Section IV ‘Electrical properties’ with the exception of toys for connection to
a computer, console, monitor screen or other audio-video equipment (point 2) and toys of such a
construction that the requirements for Functional Safety are necessary (point 7).
Once this European Standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive,
compliance with this standard confers, within the limits of the scope of this European Standard, a
presumption of conformity with the corresponding Essential Requirements of that Directive and
associated EFTA regulations.
WARNING: Other requirements and other EC Directives may be applicable to the products falling within
the scope of this standard.

FDIS Report on voting
61/4051/FDIS 61/4079/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this amendment can be found in the report
on voting indicated in the above table.
The committee has decided that the contents of this amendment and the base publication will
remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under
"http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the
publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
NOTE The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing
organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in
which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or
revised tests.
It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation
nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of publication.
