EN 61010-2-030:2010

Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use - Part 2-030: Particular requirements for testing and measuring circuits

IEC 61010-2-030:2010 specifies safety requirements for testing and measuring circuits which are connected for test or measurement purposes to devices or circuits outside the measurement equipment itself. These include measurement circuits which are part of electrical test and measurement equipment, laboratory equipment, or process control equipment. The existence of these circuits in equipment requires additional protective means between the circuit and an OPERATOR. This Part 2-030 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 61010-1. It was established on the basis of the third edition (2010) of IEC 61010-1. Consideration may be given to future editions of, or amendments to, IEC 61010-1.

Sicherheitsbestimmungen für elektrische Mess-, Steuer-, Regel- und Laborgeräte - Teil 2-030: Besondere Bestimmungen für Prüf- und Messstromkreise

Règles de sécurité pour appareils électriques de mesurage, de régulation et de laboratoire - Partie 2-030: Exigences particulières pour les circuits de test et de mesure

La CEI 61010-2-030:2010 définit les exigences de sécurité pour les circuits de test et de mesure qui sont reliés à des fins d'essai ou de mesure à des dispositifs ou à des circuits externes à l'appareil de mesure même. Ceux-ci comprennent les circuits de mesure qui font partie d'appareils électriques d'essai et de mesure, d'appareils de laboratoire ou d'appareils de contrôle de processus. L'existence de ces circuits dans l'appareil exige des moyens de protection additionnels entre le circuit et un OPERATEUR. La présente Partie 2-030 doit être utilisée conjointement avec la dernière édition de la CEI 61010-1. Elle a été établie sur la base de la troisième édition (2010) de la CEI 61010-1. Les éditions ou amendements futurs de la CEI 61010-1 pourront être pris en considération.

Varnostne zahteve za električno opremo za meritve, nadzor in laboratorijsko uporabo - 2-030. del: Posebne zahteve za preskusna in merilna vezja (IEC 61010-2-030:2010)

Ta del IEC 61010 določa varnostne zahteve za preskusna in merilna vezja, ki so povezana za namene preskusa ali meritve na naprave zunaj same merilne opreme. Te vsebujejo merilna vezja, ki so del električnega preskusa, in merilno opremo, laboratorijske opreme ali opreme za nadzor procesov. Obstoj teh vezij v opremi potrebuje dodatno zaščito med vezji in
OPERATERJEM. OPOMBA 1: Ta preskusna in merilna vezja lahko na primer:
- merijo napetosti v vezjih druge opreme,
- merijo temperaturo ločene naprave skozi termočlen,
- merijo silo na ločeni napravi preko merilca napetosti,
- injicirajo napetost v vezje, da analizirajo nov načrt.
OPOMBA 2: Za preskusna in merilna vezja, ki niso predmet tega 2. dela, se šteje, da jih zajemajo zahteve 1. dela. OPOMBA 3: Oprema, ki vsebuje ta preskusna in merilna vezja, je lahko namenjena za izvajanje preskusov in merjenja na nevarnih prevodnikih, vključno z prevodniki na GLAVNIH VODIH in prevodnikih telekomunikacijskih omrežij (glej dodatek B za vidike NEVARNOSTI, vpletene v različne preskuse in meritve).

Foreword
The text of document 66/417/FDIS, future edition 1 of IEC 61010-2-030, prepared by IEC TC 66, Safety
of measuring, control and laboratory equipment, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and
was approved by CENELEC as EN 61010-2-030 on 2010-10-01.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN and CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
(dop) 2011-07-01
national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
(dow) 2013-10-01
with the EN have to be withdrawn
This Part 2-030 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of EN 61010-1, Safety requirements for
electrical equipment for measurement, control and laboratory use - Part 1: General requirements. It was
established on the basis of the 2010 edition of EN 61010-1. Amendments and revisions of Part 1 have
also to be taken into account and the dates when such changes become applicable will be stated in the
relevant amendment or revision of Part 1.
This Part 2-030 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in EN 61010-1 so as to convert it into
the European Standard: Particular requirements for testing and measuring circuits.
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this part 2, that subclause applies as far as is
reasonable. Where this part states “addition”, “modification”, “replacement”, or “deletion” the relevant
requirement, test specification or note in Part 1 should be adapted accordingly.
In the second edition of EN 61010-1, the requirements for testing and measuring circuits were included in
Part 1 itself. In the third edition of EN 61010-1, these requirements have been removed from Part 1 and
have become the basis for the requirements in this Part 2.
In addition to the requirements removed from Part 1, the following major requirements have been added
to this standard. Numerous other changes have also been made.
− The terminology for MEASUREMENT CATEGORY I has changed. In this Part 2, it is termed “not rated for
measurements within MEASUREMENT CATEGORIES II, III, or IV”.
− CLEARANCES and CREEPAGE DISTANCES have been added for unmated measuring circuit TERMINALS.
− Requirements have been added for specialized measuring circuit TERMINALS.
− Requirements for TRANSIENT OVERVOLTAGE limiting devices have been revised.
− Requirements have been revised and added pertaining to REASONABLY FORESEEABLE MISUSE of
measuring circuits, including disconnection of the protective earth and usage of the equipment in a
manner that might cause arc flash.
− Insulation requirements for measuring circuits have been primarily located in Annex K.
− Annex AA has been added to describe the characteristics of MEASUREMENT CATEGORIES.
− Annex BB has been added to describe hazards that may be encountered when using measuring
circuits.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to
promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and
electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards,
Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter
referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National
Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International,
governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation.
IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with
conditions determined by agreement betw
