Foreword
The text of document 23B/826/FDIS, future edition 3 of IEC 60669-2-3, prepared by SC 23B, Plugs,
socket-outlets and switches, of IEC TC 23, Electrical accessories, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC
parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60669-2-3 on 2006-09-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60669-2-3:1997.
It includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 60669-2-3:1997:
– clarification of the scope to exclude electronic TDS (to be covered by EN 60669-2-1);
– introduction of requirements for SELV/PELV.
This part of EN 60669-2 is to be used in conjunction with EN 60669-1:1999. It lists the changes
necessary to convert that standard into a specific standard for time-delay switches.
In this publication, the following print types are used:
– requirements proper: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– notes: in smaller roman type.
Subclauses, figures or tables which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting from 101.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
(dop) 2007-06-01
national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
(dow) 2009-09-01
with the EN have to be withdrawn
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
__________
Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 60669-2-3:2006 was approved by CENELEC as a European
Standard without any modification.
