IEC 60745-2-17:2010

Hand-held motor-operated electric tools - Safety - Part 2-17: Particular requirements for routers and trimmers

IEC 60745-2-17:2010 Deals with the safety of routers and trimmers which the rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase a.c. or d.c. tools, and 440 V for three-phase a.c. tools. Supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of IEC 60745-1. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2003, of which it constitutes a technical revision. Main changes include: Clause 8: Marking and instructions, addition of some router specific safety warnings, clarifications in Annex K, the addition of Annex M: Safety of working stands for operation with hand-held motor-operated electric tools, and editorial modifications to match with the fourth edition of IEC 60745-1.

Outils électroportatifs à moteur - Sécurité - Partie 2-17: Règles particulières pour les défonceuses et les affleureuses

La CEI 60745-2-17:2010 Traite de la sécurité des défonceuses et aux affleureuses ou la tension assignée des outils n'étant pas supérieure à 250 V pour les outils à courant monophasé alternatif ou continu et à 440 V pour les outils à courant alternatif triphasé. Complète ou modifie les articles correspondants de la CEI 60745-1. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2003 dont elle constitue une révision technique. Les principaux changements comprennent: Article 8: Marquages et instructions, addition de certaines mises en garde de sécurité spécifiques aux défonceuses, clarifications en Annexe K, addition de l'Annexe M: Sécurité des plans de travail pour le fonctionnement avec des outils électroportatifs à moteur, et modifications rédactionnelles en vue de l'adaptation à la quatrième édition de la CEI 60745-1.

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 between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in whic
