Overview - HD 60364-4-41:2017/A11:2017 (Protection against electric shock)
HD 60364-4-41:2017/A11:2017 is a CENELEC/CLC amendment to the HD 60364 series covering low-voltage electrical installations with a focus on protection for safety - protection against electric shock. The document specifies essential requirements for protecting persons and livestock from electric shock, addressing both basic protection (protection against direct contact) and fault protection (protection against indirect contact). It also covers the application and co‑ordination of these protective measures in relation to external influences and provides guidance for when additional protection is required. The amendment (A11:2017) has the status of a group safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
Key topics and requirements
- Basic protection: measures to prevent direct contact with live parts (barriers, enclosures, insulation, separation).
- Fault protection: requirements to limit risk from indirect contact, including protective earthing and automatic disconnection of supply where applicable.
- Application and co‑ordination: how protective measures interact and must be coordinated with environmental and external influences (e.g., moisture, conductive floors).
- Additional protection: when extra safety measures (such as residual current devices) are required for specific situations or vulnerable users.
- National deviations and implementation: the amendment provides for national adaptations - e.g., Denmark’s national rules on protective conductors and RCD use were added as A‑deviations (reference to Executive Order and requirements including RCDs with rated operating current not exceeding 30 mA in some cases).
- Compliance and status: guidance on adoption dates and the harmonised status for CENELEC members.
Practical applications - who uses this standard
- Electrical designers and consulting engineers specifying safe low-voltage installations.
- Building services and site electricians responsible for installation and verification.
- Safety and compliance officers, inspectors, and certification bodies assessing conformity with European practice.
- Facility managers (including residential, commercial, agricultural/livestock) implementing protective measures against electric shock.
- Regulators and standards committees adopting national implementations or deviations.
Benefits and use cases
- Ensures consistent risk reduction against electric shock in buildings and installations.
- Guides selection and coordination of protective devices (earthing, protective conductors, RCDs) and barriers.
- Supports compliance with European electrotechnical practice and national regulations.
Related standards and references
- HD 60364 series (other parts addressing design, selection and erection).
- IEC/HD equivalents and national adoptions.
- IEC Guide 104 (group safety publication status).
- CENELEC/CENELEC national implementation documents and national deviations (e.g., Denmark clause in A11).
