Both types of interpretations are clearly identified. Interpretations relating to a particular standard are listed together, the Parts 2 of EN 60335 being associated with the appropriate edition of Part 1. For each standard, the interpretations are listed in the order of clauses and subclauses. Each CENELEC TC 61 interpretation is identified by: - the place and date of the meeting when it was agreed; - the document number of the minutes of the meeting; - the number of the reference document, when applicable; - a code with the format YYYY/XX, where YYYY is the year when the interpretation was decided, XX is the number of the interpretation, restarted every year. Each OSM/HA decision sheet is identified through the following template (...).

Decision

A push-push mains switch for stationary appliances needs a visual means e.g. according to IEC 60417

"Graphical symbols for use on equipment" or a lamp to indicate clearly whether the switch is in the on/off

position. The marking should be on or near the switch.

When the visual mean according IEC 60417 is used, it shall be distinguished clearly the different switch

positions using a lamp or a similar means.

clause 22.
Subject
Interlock switches
Problem

For removing or opening a cover, a door, etc., mechanically operated interlock switches can be used for

protection against electric shock and accessibility of moving parts.

Which are the requirements for interlock switches regarding distances contact gaps and reliability of

cycling operations of switches for fixed appliances and appliances provided with plug which provide:

1) protection against electric shock and energy hazards, or
2) protection against dangerous moving parts ?
Decision
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST-TP CLC/TR 50417:2017
CLC/TR 50417:2016 (E)

1) It is not acceptable to get access to live parts after operation of an interlock switch without a tool

even if is at least 3 mm between the contact gaps and with all poles disconnection. In that situation it

is still considered to be live. Only for certain Parts 2 (e.g. air cleaners and insect killers) this is

allowed.

2) At least a micro switch (< 3 mm) and minimum one pole disconnection to obtain the protection

against mechanical hazards.
The interlock switches are tested according to 24.1.3:
switched under load for 10 000 cycles, switched without load for 100 cycles.

Question

24.1.4 The relevant standard for automatic controls is IEC 60730-1 together with the relevant part 2.

The number of cycles of operation for automatic controls that operate during the test of Clause 11 need

not be declared for 6.10 and 6.11 of IEC 60730-1, if the appliance meets the requirements of this

standard when they are short-circuited. Does this mean that a appliance which meets the requirement of

19.4 (short-circuit of the automatic control) the automatic control needs not to be verified according

§24.1.4? What about a electronic circuit with a relay for the switching action? If complies with 19.14, does

it then need to be retested acc. 24.1.4? We have an electronic circuit as thermal regulation for §11. We

have performed 19.4 and 19.14, which short-circuits the automatic control (required in the standard).

Does the above mean we do not have to check 24.1.4? Is 24.1.4 only applicable for appliance where

§19.4 is not applicable?
OSM/HA Decision

Cycles in §24.1.4 in general are not applicable for electronic circuits (except to the relays incorporated).

When applicable, the number of cycles of operation for automatic controls that operate during the test of

Clause 11 need not be tested as requested for 6.10 and 6.11 of IEC 60730-1, if the appliance meets the

requirements of this standard when they are short-circuited.

“The requirements of this standard” written in the above means complete standard (incl. §11). If the

appliance pass §11 and the other standard clauses with the control short-circuited, no requirements for

cycles are applicable.

What is the minimum value for creepage distances and clearances on the printed circuit between the

printed conductor for live part and the printed conductor for SELV, considering that a printed earthing

conductor there is between the two printed conductors ?
Decision

The value prescribed for basic insulation is required, depending on the protection against deposition of

dirt,
The printed earthing conductor shall fulfil the requirements of 27.6.

How to deal with appliances which may be used in accordance to the instructions at high temperatures

(45 °C) ?
Decision

If a manufacturer declares an ambient temperature exceeding 25 °C, all the heating tests shall be done at

an ambient temperature of (23 ± 2) °C but the limit should be reduced as the difference between the

declared temperature and 25 °C. This decision is based on Note 2 of Table 3 of Clause 11 of Part 1.

The testing of appliances with (automatic) cord reels is performed in the most unfavourable positions of

the cord reel, in position of an appliance as defined in 15.1.2.

As the standard does not taking into account influence of water entrance during the reeling of wet cord,

shall the cable be dried during the high voltage test ?
Decision
The cable shall not be dried during the test.

Subject
Distance
Problem

Subclause 29.3 states the requirements for the thickness of solid insulation do not apply to inaccessible

insulation providing the other requirements stated within the subclause are met.

The question is about a product where a thin insulation sheet used within the product met the

requirements of the standard for inaccessible insulation once the product had been installed. However,

during installation the inaccessible insulation is accessible and, although electrically the insulation meets

the requirements, mechanically we found it could be easily damaged.

The product is an instantaneous water heater that is permanently plumbed into the water supply and

electrically connected to fixed wiring. A professional competent person normally installs the product.

The question is if this insulation is adequate even if it can easily be accidentally damaged but meets the

requirements of the standard if it is not considered an accessible part.
Decision

Taking into account the definition of accessible part (3.6.3) and the test of 21.2, if there is a risk of

insulation damage, the scratch test shall be performed on the insulation which is accessible during

installation.
