(Main)Installation couplers intended for permanent connection in fixed installations
Installation couplers intended for permanent connection in fixed installations
IEC 61535:2009 applies to two up to five wire installation couplers including earth, if provided, with a rated voltage up to and including 500 V a.c. and a rated connecting capacity up to and including 10 mm² for permanent connection in indoor electrical installations. Installation couplers with additional contacts for voltages other than mains voltages are outside the scope of this standard.
Installationssteckverbinder für dauernde Verbindung in festen Installationen
Coupleurs d'installation pour connexions permanentes dans les installations fixes
La CEI 61535:2009 s'applique aux coupleurs d'installation comportant de deux à cinq conducteurs y compris le conducteur de terre (le cas échéant), de tension assignée jusqu'à 500 V inclus en courant alternatif et de capacité de connexion assignée jusqu'à 10 mm² inclus, pour connexion permanente dans installations électriques intérieures. Les coupleurs d'installation avec des contacts supplémentaires pour des tensions autres que la tension d'alimentation du réseau ne sont pas couverts par la présente norme.
Inštalacijske spojke za trajni spoj v fiksnih napeljavah (inštalacijah) (IEC 61535:2009)
Ta standard se uporablja za dvo- do petžične inštalacijske spojke skupaj z ozemljitvijo, če je priložena, z nazivno napetostjo do vključno 500 V izmenične napetosti in nazivno spojno zmogljivostjo do vključno 10 mm za trajne spoje v notranjih električnih inštalacijah. Inštalacijske spojke z dodatnimi stiki za napetosti, razen omrežnih napetosti, ne spadajo na področje uporabe tega standarda.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2009-05-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,

Foreword
The text of document 23/466/FDIS, future edition 1 of IEC 61535, prepared by IEC TC 23, Electrical
accessories, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote.
A draft amendment, prepared by the CENELEC Reporting Secretariat SR 23, including a normative
CENELEC annex to the future standard, was submitted to the formal vote.
The combined texts were approved by CENELEC as EN 61535 on 2009-05-01.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2010-05-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2012-05-01
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.
For this European Standard, any text concerning particular conditions in certain European countries – which
are included in the main body of the International Standard – shall be disregarded and has been replaced by
the normative Annex ZA, Special national conditions.
Annexes ZA and ZB have been added by CENELEC.

Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 61535:2009 was approved by CENELEC as a European Standard
without any modification.
In the official version, for Bibliography, the following notes have to be added for the standards indicated:
IEC 60309 NOTE Harmonized in EN 60309 series (partially modified).

Special national conditions
Special national condition: National characteristic or practice that cannot be changed even over a long
period, e.g. climatic conditions, electrical earthing conditions.
NOTE If it affects harmonization, it forms part of the European Standard.
For the countries in which the relevant special national conditions apply these provisions are normative, for
other countries they are informative.
Clause Special national condition
1 Germany and United Kingdom
Add the following text to the scope:
Where installation couplers have more than five wires, they shall meet the requirements of
EN 61535 as though they were included in the scope and shall be tested in such a way that all
of the mains voltage pins are subjected to the same level of testing.
