Foreword
The text of the International Standard IEC 60998-2-4:2004, prepared by SC 23F, Connecting devices,
of IEC TC 23, Electrical accessories, together with common modifications prepared by the CENELEC
Reporting Secretariat SR 23F, was submitted to the formal vote and was approved by CENELEC as
EN 60998-2-4 on 2005-03-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60998-2-4:1993.
It introduces an additional explanation for the temperature cycling test.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2006-03-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting with
the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2008-03-01
This Part 2-4 is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 60998-1:2004.
It supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of EN 60998-1 so as to convert it into the
European Standard: Particular requirements for twist-on connecting devices.
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2-4, that subclause applies as far as
is reasonable. Where this Part 2-4 states "addition", "modification" or "replacement", the relevant text of
Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
In this standard
a) the following print types are used:
- requirements proper: in roman type,
- test specifications: in italic type,
- explanatory matter: in smaller roman type;
b) the following numbering system is used:
- subclauses and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting from 101,
- additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.,
