Overview
EN IEC 60335-2-97:2023/A1:2023 is a European amendment to the safety standard for electric drives for shutters, awnings, blinds and similar equipment used in household and similar applications. Aligned with IEC 60335-2-97:2016/A1:2019, the document defines safety requirements for these drives where the rated voltage is ≤ 250 V for single‑phase drives and ≤ 480 V for other drives. Published by CENELEC, this amendment updates marking, abnormal‑operation behavior, mechanical force tests and supply‑cord requirements relevant to conformity assessment and product design.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and voltage limits: Applies to household and similar electrical drives with the stated rated voltages.
- Marking and instructions: Tubular drives may have markings concealed after installation; required marking information must be included in the instructions. Manufacturer identity and model/type may be retrievable via a visible label (for example, a matrix barcode) after installation.
- Abnormal operation: If a drive can be operated under simulated fault conditions (tests in 19.11.2/19.11.3), additional tests (20.101–20.104) are required while supplied at rated voltage. The drive must either continue to meet requirements or, within one operation cycle, stop in a safe position or switch to a biased‑off mode.
- Mechanical hazards and force testing: Force endurance/reaction requirements modified - e.g., a force level of 250 N during the first 2 s after the force has exceeded 25 N is specified for relevant tests.
- Supply connection and flexible cords:
- Class III appliance cords need not follow Table 11 if cord temperature rise limits (Tables 3 & 9) are respected during Clause 11 and 19 tests.
- For class III appliances/parts with rated input > 15 W, the pull force test value is 30 N; it is not applied to class III items ≤ 15 W.
- Implementation timeline: CENELEC set national implementation and withdrawal dates for conflicting standards (dop and dow deadlines noted in the amendment).
Applications
- Product design and development of electric tubular motors and drives for shutters, blinds, awnings and similar installations.
- Type testing, safety verification and conformity assessment carried out by testing laboratories.
- Technical documentation and instruction preparation to meet marking and information requirements.
- Regulatory compliance work for manufacturers, importers and notified bodies in Europe.
Who Should Use This Standard
- Manufacturers and designers of motorized window coverings and external shading systems
- Safety and compliance engineers and test laboratories
- Certification bodies and regulatory authorities
- Installers and maintenance professionals preparing technical documentation and user instructions
Related Standards
- IEC/EN 60335 series (general household appliance safety requirements)
