This amendment A11 modifies the European Standard EN 62841-1:2015; it was approved by CENELEC on 2022-03-14. CENELEC
members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this amendment 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 CEN-CENELEC
Management Centre or to any CENELEC member.
This amendment 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 CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as
the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the

European foreword
This document (EN 62841-1:2015/A11:2022) has been prepared by CLC/TC 116 ”Safety and
environmental aspects of motor-operated electric tools”.
The following dates are fixed:
• latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2023–03–14
implemented at national level by publication of
an identical national standard or by
endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards (dow) 2025–03–14
conflicting with this document have to be
withdrawn
This document will amend EN 62841-1:2015.
This amendment was developed to correct the determination of the emission sound pressure level for
hand-held tools. Since the title of Annex I is “Measurement of noise and vibration emission”, the
requirements for noise and vibration reduction are transferred to Clause 21. In addition, the Annex ZZ
is replaced with a detailed one. And Annex ZA and Clause 2 are replaced in order to have only dated
normative references.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CENELEC by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements
of EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZZ, which is an integral part
of this document.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national committee. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CENELEC website.
