Annex ZAA
(normative)

Time delayed electric fence energizers
The following modifications to this standard are applicable for time delayed electric fence energizers.
3 Definitions
3.ZAA.1
time delayed electric fence energizer
electric fence energizer that when a very low load impedance is detected at the output terminals, has its
maximum output impulses limited for the duration of the delay time, but permits the output impulses to rise even
above the normal maximum allowed value of 5 J after the delay time
3.ZAA.2
delay time
time the energizer waits before its maximum output energy is allowed to increase in response to a changed load
3.ZAA.3
adaptation time
time by which an energizer output has reached steady-state in response to a changed load after the delay time
has elapsed
7 Marking and instructions
7.1 Addition:
The energizer shall be marked with the substance of the words “time delayed electric fence energizer” or with
the symbol (see 7.6) and shall not be marked as being suitable for use in a security energizer group.

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

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this document have to be withdrawn (to be confirmed or

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superseded.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:

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

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
