Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery - Safety - Part 2-1: Particular requirements for hand-held drills and impact drills

IEC 62841-2-1:2017 applies to hand-held drills and impact drills, including diamond core drills. This standard also applies to drills that can be used for driving screws by attaching screwdriver bits.The rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase a.c. or d.c. tools, and 480 V for three-phase a.c. tools. The rated input is not more than 3 700 W. The limits for the applicability of this standard for battery tools are given in K.1 and L.1. This standard deals with the hazards presented by tools which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the tools. Hand-held electric tools, which can be mounted on a support or working stand for use as fixed tools without any alteration of the tool itself, are within the scope of this standard and such combination of a hand-held tool and a support is considered to be a transportable tool and thus covered by the relevant Part 3.
This standard does not apply to rotary hammers, even if they can be used as a drill.
This Part 2-1 is to be used in conjunction with the first edition of IEC 62841-1:2014.
The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests.
It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 36 months from the date of publication

Outils électroportatifs à moteur, outils portables et machines pour jardins et pelouses - Sécurité - Partie 2-1: Exigences particulières pour les perceuses portatives et les perceuses à percussion

IEC 62841-2-1:2017 s’applique aux perceuses portatives et aux perceuses à percussion y compris les perceuses à diamant. La présente norme s’applique également aux perceuses pouvant être utilisées pour enfoncer des vis lorsque des embouts de visseuse leur sont ajoutés.
La tension assignée est inférieure à 3 700 W. Les limites d'application de la présente Norme aux outils fonctionnant sur batterie sont indiquées en K.1 et L.1. La présente Norme traite des dangers présentés par les outils, encourus par tous les individus dans l'utilisation normale et dans l'utilisation impropre raisonnablement prévisible de ces outils. Les outils électroportatifs, qui peuvent être montés sur un support de travail pour être utilisés comme outils installés à poste fixe sans aucune modification de l'outil lui-même, sont compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente Norme et la combinaison d'un outil portatif et d'un support est considérée comme un outil portable, donc couvert par la Partie 3 applicable.
La présente norme ne s’applique pas aux marteaux rotatifs, même s’ils peuvent être utilisés comme une perceuse.
La présente Partie 2-1 doit être utilisée conjointement avec la première édition de l’IEC 62841-1 (2014).
L'attention des Comités Nationaux est attirée sur le fait que les fabricants d'appareils et les organismes d'essai peuvent avoir besoin d'une période transitoire après la publication d'une nouvelle publication IEC, ou d'une publication amendée ou révisée, pour fabriquer des produits conformes aux nouvelles exigences et pour adapter leurs équipements aux nouveaux essais ou aux essais révisés.
Le comité recommande que le contenu de cette publication soit entériné au niveau national au plus tôt 36 mois après la date de publication.

Overview

EN 62841-2-1:2018/A11:2019 (CLC) specifies safety requirements for electric motor‑operated hand‑held drills and impact drills, including diamond core drills and drills used for driving screws with screwdriver bits. It is a Part 2-1 particular standard to be used in conjunction with IEC/EN 62841-1:2014 (general requirements). The standard covers tools with rated voltages up to 250 V for single‑phase a.c./d.c., 480 V for three‑phase a.c., and rated input up to 3 700 W; limits for battery tools are referenced in clauses K.1 and L.1. Rotary hammers are excluded. Hand‑held tools that can be mounted on a support without alteration are treated as transportable tools and fall under the relevant Part 3.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and applicability: identifies included drill types (hand‑held drills, impact drills, diamond core drills, screw‑driving with bits) and explicit exclusions (rotary hammers).
• Electrical limits: rated voltage and input power limits (250 V single‑phase/d.c., 480 V three‑phase, 3 700 W).
• Noise and vibration testing: amendment A11 updates operating conditions for noise measurement:
  • Drills (except diamond core) are measured at no‑load with highest speed setting.
  • Impact drills are tested under load at the manufacturer‑recommended speed for an 8 mm concrete bit.
  • Diamond core drills are tested under load (see Table I.106/test conditions).
• Hazard coverage: addresses hazards from normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse - e.g., moving parts, ejected objects, electrical risks, ergonomics, material break‑up.
• Documentation and conformity: includes marking, instructions, and Annex ZZ which maps the standard to essential requirements of Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
• Transition advice: recommends a national implementation not earlier than 36 months after publication to allow manufacturers and test labs to adapt.

Practical applications

• Ensures safe design, testing and instruction for hand‑held and impact drills used in construction, manufacturing, maintenance and DIY.
• Provides test methods and limits for product conformity, noise and vibration assessment, and protective measures.
• Supports CE conformity assessment where the standard is cited in the EU Official Journal.

Who should use this standard

• Tool manufacturers and design engineers (product safety, compliance).
• Test laboratories and certification bodies (type testing, noise/vibration measurement).
• Regulatory authorities and notified bodies assessing conformity with the Machinery Directive.
• Product compliance teams and technical writers preparing manuals and markings.

Related standards

• IEC/EN 62841-1:2014 - General requirements for electric motor‑operated hand‑held tools.

1 Modifications to Annex I, “Measurement of noise and vibration emissions”
Replace the existing first three paragraphs of I.2.5 as follows:
“I.2.5 Operating conditions
Addition:
Drills, except diamond core drills, are tested at no-load without any accessory mounted, all speed
setting devices adjusted to the highest value.
NOTE 101 Experimental investigations have shown that the noise emission values of drills, except diamond core
drills, at no-load and under load are very similar. For reasons of simplification, the noise emission is therefore
measured at no-load.
For impact drills, the speed setting shall be that recommended by the manufacturer for an 8 mm bit for
drilling into concrete.
Impact drills are tested under load as shown in Figure I.101 and in accordance with the conditions
shown in Tables I.101 and I.102.
Diamond core drills are tested under load and in accordance with the conditions shown in
Table I.106.”
