This draft amendment prAA, if approved, will modify the European Standard prEN IEC 60335-2-76:2020; it is submitted to CENELEC

members for enquiry.
Deadline for CENELEC: 2020-07-24.
It has been drawn up by CLC/TC 61.

If this draft becomes an amendment, CENELEC members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which

stipulate the conditions for giving this amendment the status of a national standard without any alteration.

This draft amendment was established by CENELEC in three official versions (English, French, German).

A version in any other language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified to

the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic,

Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the

Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,

Turkey and the United Kingdom.

Recipients of this draft are invited to submit, with their comments, notification of any relevant patent rights of which they are aware and to

provide supporting documentation.

Warning : This document is not a European Standard. It is distributed for review and comments. It is subject to change without notice and

shall not be referred to as a European Standard.

European foreword

This document (prEN IEC 60335-2-76:2020/prAA:2020) has been prepared by CLC/TC 61 "Safety of household

and similar electrical appliances".
This document is currently submitted to the CENELEC Enquiry.
The following dates are proposed:

• latest date by which the existence of this document has to (doa) dor + 6 months

be announced at national level

• latest date by which this document has to be implemented at (dop) dor + 12 months

national level by publication of an identical national standard
or by endorsement

• latest date by which the national standards conflicting with (dow) dor + 36 months

this document have to be withdrawn (to be confirmed or
modified when voting)

With this amendment the standard EN 60335-2-76:2005+A1:2006+A2:2015+A11:2008+A12:2010 is

superseded.

This amendment supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of the standards below:

– EN 60335-1:2012+A11:2014+ A13:2017+A1:2019+A14:2019+A2:2019 (Part 1)
– EN IEC 60335-2-76:2020 (Part 2)
Secretary Note: the IM shall decide which part 1 shall be applicable.

Secretary Note: This standard shall be read in conjunction with EN IEC 60335-2-76:2020. (PR=70277)

The numbering system for European clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes that are additional

to those in the IEC standard are prefixed with the letter “Z”.

This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission and the

European Free Trade Association.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent

rights. CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

NOTE FROM THE ISSUE MANAGERS:

because time delayed electric fence energizers (which can exceed 5 J after a delay time as described in the

annex ZAA of the EN 60335-2-76) are not specified in the IEC 60335-2-76 standard, the present document(s)

do(es) not clearly stipulate if they are to be possible or not inside a security energizer group. The attention of

the National Committees is drawn to the fact that if the use of a time delayed electric fence energizers was to

be allowed inside a security energizer group the present document(s) would need to be completed to specify

how to test for a security energizer group that would contain at least one time delayed fence energizer

1 Modification to Clause 3, "Terms and Definitions"
3.8.101
standard load
Replace the definition as following:

load consisting of the non-inductive resistor R1 between 50 Ω and 500 Ω giving the most severe

condition and a non-inductive variable resistor R2 that is adjusted so as to maximize the energy per

impulse or output current in the non-inductive resistor R1, as applicable. The non-inductive variable

resistor R2 is connected in series or parallel with the non-inductive resistor R1, whichever gives the

more unfavourable result

Key
R1 non inductive resistor between 50 Ωand 500 Ω
R2 non inductive variable resistor
2 Modification to Clause 6, "Classification"
6.101 Delete the clause
3 Modification to Clause 7 Marking and instructions
7.1 Replacement:
In the second paragraph, replace “Energy limited energizers” by “Energizers”.
