Introduction
During the electrostatic coating process, the non-ignitable liquid coating material is transported to a spraying
device where it is atomized by mechanical forces and/or by the influence of an electric field. The generated
spray cloud is charged by high voltage of some 10 kV, is attracted by and is applied to the earthed workpiece.
Spray clouds which are not applied to the workpiece (overspray) are removed by a suction device or by other
means.The coating material is cured at room temperature or by heating.

Electrical hazards may occur, for instance, if hazardous malfunctions (e.g. shortcut of electronic safety circuits,
of access guards to hazardous areas or of warning devices) occur due to interferences of the high-voltage
equipment and the components of control and safety systems.Hazardous electrostatic discharges may be generated, for instance, by non-earthed conductive components or
by large insulating surfaces, especially if they are backed with conductive material.

0 Introduction
0.1 Process
During the electrostatic coating process the non-ignitable liquid coating material is transported from a reservoir
to an applicator where it is atomised by mechanical forces and by the influence of an electric field. The coating
material is charged by high voltage of some 10 kV and a spray cloud is generated. The charged droplets of the
coating materials are attracted by and applied to the earthed workpiece.Droplets of the coating material, which are not applied to the workpiece (overspray) are removed by a suction
device or by other means.After the coating process, the coated workpieces are introduced into a dryer or oven where a dry film of coating
material is generated.0.2 Fire hazards
0.2.1 Fire hazards can be caused by deposits of coating materials inside the spray booth, exhaust air ducts,
the recovery system for coating materials, and filters. During operation, malfunctions or electrical faults could
cause ignition of these residues. The propagation of the fire also leads to hazards in adjacent areas.
0.2.2 Particular attention should be paid to the prevention of electrostatic charges on different surfaces, which
are in the vicinity of the spray cloud. This could apply both to workpieces during the coating process or the
reciprocating devices and the mounting parts of the spraying system, etc.0.2.3 When spraying non-ignitable coating material, the formation of an explosive atmosphere is not likely to
occur. Electrostatic application equipment for ignitable coating materials are covered by EN 50050-1,
EN 50050-2 and EN 50050-3.0.3 Electric hazards
0.3.1 Electric shock (by direct or indirect contact) can be generated, for instance, by contact with:
— live parts, which are not insulated for operational reasons,— conductive parts, which are not connected to dangerous voltage during normal operation, but only in case
of failure,— insulated live parts with insufficient or damaged insulation due to external impact,
— charged passive parts with inadequate earthing.0.3.2 Inadequate earthing could occur, for instance, due to:
— faulty connections to the protective earthing system,
— a too high resistance to earth (e.g. contamination by coating materials).
0.3.3 Hazards could occur, for instance, if hazardous malfunctions (e.g. shortcut of electronic safety circuits)
occur due to interferences of the electrostatic high voltage equipment and the components of the control and
safety systems.0.3.4 Hazardous electrostatic discharges could be generated, for instance, by non-earthed conductive
components or by large insulating surfaces, especially if they are backed with conductive material.
0.3.5 Ventricular fibrillation is the primary risk of electric shock. The undercut of the current/time limit and the
fibrillation limit are proven by current and time measurement. In this document, I is used as a measure for
(t)falling below the current/time limit and the fibrillation limit. It is comparable to the amount of current It or the
specific fibrillation energy It in accordance with IEC 60479-1 and IEC 60479-2. A power limit as given in the
standards EN 50176, EN 50177, EN 50223 and EN 50348 is not applicable in this document due to the
characteristics of the equipment and the resulting hazard of electric current.---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------

1 Scope
1.1 This document specifies the requirements for hand-held or hand-operated electrostatic spraying
equipment for non-ignitable liquid coating materials which— do not generate an explosive atmosphere inside the spraying area,
— are used to process materials with a conductivity of less than 2 000 µS/cm, and
— operate with direct current having a sinusoidal ripple of not more than 10 % of the rms value.
This document deals with all electrical hazards significant for the electrostatic spraying of non-ignitable liquid
coating materials, which could also contain small quantities of added metal particles, if the work is carried out
under conditions recommended by the manufacturer.This document specifies the design-related and test requirements for electrostatic spraying equipment of type
A-NL according to of EN 50348:2010, Table 1.1.2 With regard to all other significant hazards relevant for applicators (e.g. ejection of fluids, mechanical
strength, electrical (with the exception of electrostatic) hazards, noise, contact with or inhalation of dangerous
substances, ergonomics), the requirements of EN 1953 apply.1.3 This document also gives details regarding quality assurance systems for electrostatic spraying
equipment; see Annex D.1.4 For electrostatic spraying equipment used in food and pharmaceutical industry, additional requirements
could apply.1.5 This document is not applicable to:
— electrostatic hand-held spraying equipment for non-ignitable coating materials which are manufactured
before the date of its publication,— cleaning of spraying areas, see instruction manual of the spraying booth,
— fire prevention and protection (for instance fire hazards due to other sources; see EN 16985),
— requirements for machinery for the supply and recirculation of coating material under pressure (see
EN 12621).The requirements of EN 12621 apply in terms of specific requirements regarding machinery for the supply and
recirculation of coating materials under pressure.2 Normative references

4 Requirements for hand-held spraying equipment for non-ignitable liquid coating
materials
4.1 General requirements
4.1.1 Hand-held spraying equipment shall be designed and constructed that both
— in case of long-time contact (>1 s) of live parts and charged passive parts, the short-circuit current flowing
through the user does not exceed the maximum of 30 mA DC (see 5.4.1.2), and— in case of discharge times of less than 10 ms from live parts and charged passive parts the body current
with the value I of a discharge does not exceed the boundary line C of Figure 1 (see 5.5, 5.6.2 and
B rms 1Annex A and Annex B).
NOTE 1 A discharge in the timeframe between 10 ms and 1 s does not occur in this type of equipment.
Figure 1 — Pulse duration — body current, ventricular fibrillation risk---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 50059:2020
prEN 50059:2020 (E)
The curves indicate the probability of ventricular fibrillation risk for current flowing through the body from the left
hand to both feet.Below C : no ventricular fibrillation (safety limit)
Above C up to C : low risk of ventricular fibrillation (up to 5 % of probability);
1 2Above C up to C : average risk of ventricular fibrillation (up to 50 % of probability);
2 3Above C : high risk of ventricular fibrillation (more than 50 % probability).
NOTE 2 Findings from electrical accidents lead to the conclusion that the risk of ventricular fibrillation generally exists
particularly with long-time longitudinal flow (hand to feet). When using electrostatic hand-held spraying equipment, a less
dangerous cross flow (hand to hand) can be assumed. This is considered in the calculation of the effective body current
value.4.1.2 All conductive parts of the hand-held spraying equipment which are not at high voltage potential shall
be earthed. Earthing of conductive parts inside the hand-held spraying equipment can be neglected if hazardous
discharges have been prevented by design. Conductive parts connected to measuring and control circuits shall
be earthed with a resistance of ≤ 100 MΩ. Parts which are at high voltage for operational reasons shall be
bonded to each other in a conductive way.4.1.3 Applicators shall meet the applicable requirements of EN 1953.
4.1.4 Electrical connecting cables shall be connected to the applicator or associated equipment in a secured
way. Requirements of 5.3.1 shall be fulfilled.4.1.5 The handle of the applicator shall have a contact surface area of conductive material of at least 20 cm .
This contact surface area shall be earthed, and the resistance to earth shall not exceed 1 MΩ.
4.1.6 Operating triggers of the applicators shall be biased to the OFF-position. In this position, the coating
material supply system shall be cut-off immediately, and the high voltage supply shall be
