(Main)Electrical safety in low voltage distribution systems up to 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC - Equipment for testing, measuring or monitoring of protective measures - Part 17: Non-contact AC voltage indicators (IEC 61557-17:2021)
Electrical safety in low voltage distribution systems up to 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC - Equipment for testing, measuring or monitoring of protective measures - Part 17: Non-contact AC voltage indicators (IEC 61557-17:2021)
This part of IEC 61557 defines minimum performance requirements for non-contact AC voltage
indicators to reduce the risk of electric shock for the testing person and bystanders caused by
the wrong interpretation of the indication.
Products designed and manufactured in accordance with this document are for use by
(electrically) skilled persons only. Non-contact AC voltage indicators are not designed for
testing the absence of the operating voltage.
Elektrische Sicherheit in Niederspannungsnetzen bis AC 1 000 V und DC 1 500 V - Geräte zum Prüfen, Messen oder Überwachen von Schutzmaßnahmen - Teil 17: Berührungslose Spannungsanzeiger (IEC 61557-17:2021)

IEC 61557-17:2021 définit les exigences minimales de qualités de fonctionnement relatives aux indicateurs de tension alternative sans contact afin de réduire le risque de choc électrique encouru par la personne qui effectue l’essai et les personnes au voisinage et occasionné par une mauvaise interprétation de l'indication.
Les produits conçus et fabriqués conformément au présent document sont destinés à être utilisés par des personnes (électriquement) qualifiées uniquement. Les indicateurs de tension alternative sans contact ne sont pas conçus pour vérifier l'absence de tension de service.
Električna varnost v nizkonapetostnih razdelilnih sistemih za izmenične napetosti do 1 kV in enosmerne napetosti do 1,5 kV - Oprema za preskušanje, merjenje in nadzorovanje zaščitnih ukrepov - 17. del: Brezstični indikatorji napetosti (IEC 61557-17:2021)
Ta del standarda IEC 61557 opredeljuje minimalne zahteve glede zmogljivosti brezstičnih indikatorjev izmenične napetosti, da se zmanjša tveganje električnega udara, ki bi ga zaradi napačne interpretacije indikacije lahko utrpeli preskuševalec in navzoče osebe. Izdelki, zasnovani in izdelani v skladu s tem dokumentom, so namenjeni samo (elektrotehniško) usposobljenim osebam. Brezstični indikatorji izmenične napetosti niso zasnovani za preskušanje odsotnosti delovne napetosti.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
