Interpretation sheet 1 - Switches for household and similar fixed electrical installations - Part 2-1: Particular requirements - Electronic switches

Applies to sounders which are treated as entirely passive electroacoustic transducer elements. Piezoelectric diaphragms, which are the principal components of piezoelectric sounders, are also included. Standardize the definitions relating to these electroacoustic transducers, lists characteristics to be specified and the relevant methods of measurement.

Feuille d'interprétation 1 - Interrupteurs pour installations électriques fixes domestiques et analogues - Partie 2-1: Prescriptions particulières - Interrupteurs électroniques

S'applique aux sondeurs, considérés comme des éléments transducteurs electroacoustiques entièrement passifs. S'applique également aux membranes piézoélectriques qui sont les principales composantes des sondeurs piézoélectriques. Normalise les définitions relatives à ces transducteurs électroacoustiques et énumère les caractéristiques à spécifier ainsi que les méthodes de mesure pertinentes.

Interpretation of the application of IEC 60669-2-1:2002, Subclause 26.2.1,
NOTE 2
According to NOTE 2 of 26.2.1 of IEC 60669-2-1:2002, independent dimmers for
incandescent lamps up to and including 1 000 W are not tested according to
IEC 61000-3-2.
Dimmers according to IEC 60669-2-1 are independent dimmers.
If they are designed to dim different kinds of loads including incandescent lamps they are
considered as dimmers for incandescent lamps and according to IEC 61000-3-2 they need not
to be tested with all different kinds of load.
As a consequence independent dimmers complying with IEC 60669-2-1 and designed to dim
different kinds of loads including incandescent lamps need not to be tested according to
Clause 7 of IEC 61000-3-2:2005 and its Amendments 1:2008 and 2:2009, if the rated power is
less than or equal to 1000 W.
NOTE This interpretation sheet will be withdrawn once IEC 61000-3-2 will have been modified to cover also
dimmers for other kinds of loads than incandescent lamps.
