and similar appliances".
This document supersedes CLC/TR 50417:2010.
It includes all the interpretations agreed up to the CLC/TC 61 meeting in December 2011.
This Technical Report includes all Interpretations currently in force made by CENELEC TC 61 on EN 60335
series of standards. It also includes all decision sheets in force made by OSM/HA. Both types of
interpretations are clearly identified. Interpretations relating to a particular standard are listed together, the
Parts 2 of EN 60335 being associated with the appropriate edition of Part 1. For each standard, the
interpretations are listed in the order of clauses and subclauses.
Each CENELEC TC 61 interpretation is identified by
– the place and date of the meeting when it was agreed;
– the document number of the minutes of the meeting;
– the number of the reference document, when applicable;
– a code with the format YYYY/XX, where
YYYY is the year when the interpretation was decided,
XX is the number of the interpretation, restarted every year.

Problem
Marking of push-push mains switch
Decision
A push-push mains switch for stationary appliances needs a visual means e.g. according to IEC 60417
"Graphical symbols for use on equipment" or a lamp to indicate clearly whether the switch is in the on/off
position. The marking should be on or near the switch.
When the visual mean according IEC 60417 is used, it shall be distinguished clearly the different switch
positions using a lamp or a similar means.

Interlock switches
Problem
For removing or opening a cover, a door, etc., mechanically operated interlock switches can be used for
protection against electric shock and accessibility of moving parts.
Which are the requirements for interlock switches regarding distances contact gaps and reliability of cycling
operations of switches for fixed appliances and appliances provided with plug which provide:
1) protection against electric shock and energy hazards, or
2) protection against dangerous moving parts ?
Decision
1) It is not acceptable to get access to live parts after operation of an interlock switch without a tool even if is
at least 3 mm between the contact gaps and with all poles disconnection. In that situation it is still considered
to be live. Only for certain Parts 2 (e.g. air cleaners and insect killers) this is allowed.
2) At least a micro switch (< 3 mm) and minimum one pole disconnection to obtain the protection against
mechanical hazards.
The interlock switches are tested according to 24.1.3:
switched under load for 10 000 cycles, switched without load for 100 cycles.

ambient temperature of (23 ± 2) °C but the limit should be reduced as the difference between the declared
temperature and 25 °C. This decision is based on Note 2 of Table 3 of Clause 11 of Part 1.

Moisture resistance
Problem
The testing of appliances with (automatic) cord reels is performed in the most unfavourable positions of the
cord reel, in position of an appliance as defined in 15.1.2.
As the standard does not taking into account influence of water entrance during the reeling of wet cord, shall
the cable be dried during the high voltage test ?
Decision
The cable shall not be dried during the test.

Subject
Distance
Problem
Subclause 29.3 states the requirements for the thickness of solid insulation do not apply to inaccessible
insulation providing the other requirements stated within the subclause are met.
The question is about a product where a thin insulation sheet used within the product met the requirements of
the standard for inaccessible insulation once the product had been installed. However, during installation the
inaccessible insulation is accessible and, although electrically the insulation meets the requirements,
mechanically we found it could be easily damaged.
The product is an instantaneous water heater that is permanently plumbed into the water supply and
electrically connected to fixed wiring. A professional competent person normally installs the product.
The question is if this insulation is adequate even if it can easily be accidentally damaged but meets the
requirements of the standard if it is not considered an accessible part.
Decision
Taking into account the definition of accessible part (3.6.3) and the test of 21.2, if there is a risk of insulation
damage, the scratch test shall be performed on the insulation which is accessible during installation.

Glow-wire
Problem
Considering 30.2 of Part 1, including A2, how shall the glow wire test on motor capacitors and in which parts
be performed ?
The photo 1 shows a resin embedded motor capacitors where the internal connection between the wire and
the plate is a soldered one.
The photos 2 and 3 show the points of connection on the upper and lower part.
In all the figures the connections are within 3 mm form the external plastic case of the capacitor.
Decision
The glow wire test has to be performed over the shielding and shielded materials joint together, where the
connection is made, at 750 °C, from the inside to outside as normal testing, allowing the tip to penetrate in
the shielded material. In this case, the shielded material is the external plastic case because is within 3 mm
from the connection (as in the figures).

Subject
Abnormal operation
Problem
During the CLC/TC 61 meeting in Milan in November 2005 the situation for the motor protectors was
discussed and it was agreed that the requirements in accordance to Clause 29 will not be applied because
the contacts are only opened during the tests of Clause 19. It was discussed to apply only a high voltage test
with the double of the working voltage across the functional insulation.
But in the opinion of the OSM/HA delegates, the component standard distances for functional insulation
applies only to the protector itself and Clause 29 of EN 60335 should apply to connections, or tracks, or other
parts of the protection circuits.
Decision
The requirements of EN 60730 apply to the motor protector itself, for all other parts of the protection circuit
the requirements of EN 60335 apply.
Comment
CLC/TC 61 agreed (November 2006).
This opinion was already confirmed by IEC/TC61 as indicated in Item 33a of the Jeju meeting minutes
(document 61/3211/RM) concerning inquiry USA1 and is also in line with IEC/TC 61/MT 23 opinion.

Detachable supply cords
Problem
How shall the test of 25.15 be performed in case of fixed appliances intended to be permanently connected
to fixed wiring having a mass between 1 and 4 kg?
Decision
Fixed appliances have to be tested like appliances > 4 kg, according to 25.15 (100 N and 0,35 Nm),
independently of the weight of the appliance, and supply cables insulation (according to 25.8) shall
correspond to the weight of the appliance.
This decision is not applicable if the cable is not accessible in normal use (e.g. the supply cable to motor
drives in the scope of EN 60335-2-95, 2-97 and 2-103).
