AMENDMENT 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 which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s), which
may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent
the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at https://patents.iec.ch. IEC
shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to IEC 62841-2-6:2020 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 116:
Safety of motor-operated electric tools.
The text of this Amendment is based on the following documents:

The language used for the development of this Amendment is English.
This document was drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, and developed in
accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 and ISO/IEC Directives, IEC Supplement, available
at www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs. The main document types developed by IEC are
described in greater detail at www.iec.ch/publications/.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under webstore.iec.ch in the data related to the
specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn, or

19 Mechanical hazards
Replace the existing text of 19.102.3 with the following new text:
19.102.3 Assessment to determine tool configuration
This assessment is only applicable for tools that employ (an) electronic circuit(s) that affect(s)
the output torque in the test of 19.102.4.
Prior to each measurement, the sample is operated for at least 5 min at no-load. After each
5 min operation period, the measurement shall be started within 20 min.
All measurements are made with the tool sample running in the forward position.
The sample is connected to the measurement fixture and is fixed during the test.
For tools with a soft start function, the test of 19.102.4 through steps 1) and 2) is conducted on
the sample with the soft start function enabled and then repeated with the soft start function
disabled. If analysis shows that the tool will not operate with the soft start function disabled,
then the test with the soft start function disabled is not conducted. For tools employing
electronically commutated motors, the configuration that results in the greatest output torque
shall be used for the test of 19.102.4. For tools other than those employing electronically
commutated motors, the configuration that results in the greatest output torque shall be used
for the following test.
For tools other than those employing electronically commutated motors, when all functions
affecting the test value of the output torque, except for any soft start function, are not evaluated
as SCFs according to 18.8 (e.g. current limit and stall detection), the tool configuration for the
test of 19.102.4 shall be the configuration that results in the greatest output torque for one trial
of the test of 19.102.4 through steps 1) and 2) as specified below:
– all functions affecting the output torque e
