1 Scope
Replace the beginning of the third paragraph of the Replacement by the following:
The operation and/or control as mentioned…
Replace the fourth paragraph of the Replacement by the following:
This standard also applies to general purpose electronic switches with included automatic
functions where the operation and/or the control is initiated by a change of a physical
quantity, for example light, temperature, humidity, time, wind velocity, presence of persons,
etc.
Add the following after the fifth paragraph of the Replacement:
This standard also applies to electronic RCS and electronic TDS with a rated voltage not
exceeding 440 V and a rated current not exceeding 25 A, intended for household and similar
fixed electrical installations, either indoors or outdoors.
NOTE 1 Switches including only passive components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, PTC and NTC
components, varistors, printed wiring boards and connectors are not considered as electronic switches.
NOTE 2 Electronic switches may have control circuits with a.c. or d.c. rated control voltages.
Renumber NOTES 1 and 2 as NOTES 3 and 4.

3 Definitions
Add, on page 17, the following new definitions:
3.112
RCS
remote controlled switch
switch intended to be operated from a distance
3.112.1
electromagnetic RCS
RCS provided with a coil which is operated by means of impulses or which may be
permanently energized by means of a control circuit
NOTE These devices are covered by IEC 60669-2-2.
3.112.2
electronic RCS
electronic switch providing the function, markings and connection configuration of an RCS
according to IEC 60669-2-2, but containing electronic components and/or a combination of
electronic components and a coil or coils, which is operated by means of an electronic
extension unit or units
NOTE This electronic RCS may for example be used as a look alike replacement for RCS according to
IEC 60669-2-2.
– 4 – 60669-2-1 Amend. 1 © IEC:2008
3.113
rated control voltage
the voltage assigned to the external control circuit by the manufacturer
3.114
switching circuit
the circuit which contains the parts which allow the rated current to flow through the RCS or
TDS
3.115
control circuit
the circuit which includes electrical parts to actuate the switching mechanism
3.116
control mechanism
mechanism which includes all the parts which are intended for the operation of the RCS or
TDS
3.117
incorporated hand-operated device
device incorporated in the switch which allows the switching circuit to be operated, directly or
indirectly. This device is not intended for the normal operation of the RCS or TDS
3.118
rated control current
current required for the initiation of the electronic RCS assigned to the control circuit by the
manufacturer
3.119
bistable electronic RCS
electronic RCS containing a control mechanism which, when not initiated electrically or
actuated mechanically, remains stable in its operating position and will change its operating
position on initiation or actuation
3.120
monostable electronic RCS
electronic RCS containing a control mechanism which, on electrical initiation or mechanical
actuation, changes the operating position of the switch which remains in this condition while
the electronic RCS is initiated or actuated, and returns to the position prior to initiation or
actuation of the electronic RCS after initiation or actuation is discontinued
3.121
priority electronic RCS
electronic RCS used to operate directly or indirectly a first load circuit or group of load circuits
the use of which at times can be dispensed with, and where the control circuit of the
electronic RCS is influenced by or connected to a second circuit or group of circuits (priority
or circuits) which when energized will thus initiate the control circuit of the electronic RCS to
de-energize the first load circuit or circuits for the time during which the second circuit or
group of circuits is energized
NOTE The electronic RCS may have a means for adjusting the sensitivity of the electronic RCS control circuit to
initiate the electronic RCS depending on the total load or current delivered to any part of the circuits (priority switch
with current coil) or be sensitive to the voltage (priority switch with voltage coil) applied to the second load or group
of loads.
60669-2-1 Amend. 1 © IEC:2008 – 5 –
3.122
TDS
time delayed switch
switch provided with a time-delay device which operates for a certain time (the delay time). It
may be either manually actuated and/or remotely electrically initiated
3.123
electronic TDS
electronic switch providing the function, markings and connection configuration of a TDS
according to IEC 60669-2-3, but containing electronic components
NOTE This electronic TDS may for example be used as a look alike replacement for TDS according to IEC 60669-
2-3.
3.124
delay time
period during which the switching circuit(s) is (are) kept closed. Any time taken for the
decreasing of the voltage (e.g. to reduce the light) at the end of the delay period is included
within the delay time
3.125
delay device
all components which have an influence on the delay time. The delay time may be adjustable
