Safety of machinery - Electrical equipment of machines – Part 11: Requirements for equipment for voltages above 1 000 V AC or 1 500 V DC and not exceeding 36 kV(IEC 60204-11:2018)

This part of IEC 60204 applies to electrical and electronic equipment and systems to
machines, including a group of machines working together in a co-ordinated manner, which
operate at nominal voltages above 1 000 V AC or 1 500 V DC and not exceeding 36 kV AC or
DC with nominal frequencies not exceeding 60 Hz.
In this document, the term HV equipment also covers the LV equipment forming an integral
part of the equipment operating at high voltage. The requirements in this document primarily
cover the parts operating at high-voltage except where explicitly stated otherwise.
NOTE 1 LV equipment not forming part of the HV equipment is covered by IEC 60204-1:2016.
NOTE 2 In this document, the term "electrical" includes both electrical and electronic matters (i.e. electrical
equipment means both the electrical and the electronic equipment).
NOTE 3 This document does not apply to independent high-voltage power supply installations for which separate
IEC standards exist.
The electrical equipment covered by this document commences at the point of connection of
the supply to the electrical equipment of the machine (see 5.1).
NOTE 4 For the requirements for high-voltage power supply installations, see IEC 61936-1.
This document is a generic safety standard. It does not cover all the requirements (e.g.
guarding, interlocking or control) which are needed or required by other standards or
regulations in order to safeguard personnel from hazards other than electrical hazards. Each
type of machine has unique requirements to be accommodated to provide adequate safety.
NOTE 5 In some machines the high-voltage power supply can be produced by a step-up transformer
(autotransformer), supplied by a low-voltage system (e.g. by a LV generator).
NOTE 6 In the context of this document, the term "person" refers to any individual; "personnel" are those persons
who are assigned and instructed by the user or his agent(s) in the use and care of the machine in question.
This part of IEC 60204 specifically includes, but is not limited to, machines as defined in 3.29
(Annex A lists examples of machines whose electrical equipment can be covered by this
document).
For protection against electric shock from high-voltage equipment, this document refers to
IEC 61936-1. When it comes to low-voltage equipment, this document refers to
IEC 602041:
2016.
NOTE 7 High- and low-voltage standards use different terms regarding protection against electric shock. Whereas
high-voltage standards use the terms “direct contact” and “indirect contact”, low-voltage standards correspondingly
use “basic protection” and “fault protection”.
Additional and special requirements can apply to the electrical equipment of machines that
– are used in the open air (i.e. outside buildings or other protective structures);
– use, process or produce potentially explosive material (e.g. paint or sawdust);
– are used in potentially explosive and/or flammable atmospheres;
– have special risks when producing or using certain materials;
– are used in mines.
Hazards as a result of noise and vibration are excluded from the scope of this document.

L'IEC 60204-11:2018 annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2000. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition contient des modifications techniques majeures par rapport à l’édition précédente qui concernent:
– les aspects liés à l’appréciation du risque, tirés de l’ISO 12100;
– les liaisons équipotentielles et la mise à la terre;
– la CEM et la qualité de la puissance;
– les appareillages à haute tension;
– les lignes de fuite pour conducteurs et ensembles de bagues collectrices;
– une liste des machines utilisant des équipements HT dans l’Annexe A.
IEC 60204-11:2018 a été mise à jour et améliorée sur la base de l’expérience acquise avec la première édition et sur la base de l’évolution des équipements haute tension décrits dans les normes applicables. Concernant les exigences de forme, l'IEC 60204-11 a été alignée sur
– l’IEC 60204-1:2016,
– l’IEC 61936-1:2010 et l’IEC 61936-1:2010/AMD1:2014,
– l’IEC 62271 (toutes les parties). Cette norme est destinée à être utilisée conjointement avec l’IEC 60204-1.

Varnost strojev - Električna oprema strojev - 11. del: Zahteve za VN opremo za napetosti nad 1000 V a.c. ali 1500 V d.c., vendar ne nad 36 kV (IEC 60204-11:2018)

Ta del standarda IEC 60204 se uporablja za električno in elektronsko opremo in sisteme za stroje, vključno s skupino strojev, ki delujejo skupaj in usklajeno ter ki delujejo pri nazivni napetosti nad 1000 V a.c. ali 1500 V d.c., vendar ne nad 36 kV a.c. ali d.c. z nazivno frekvenco, ki ne presega 60 Hz.
V tem dokumentu izraz visokonapetostna (HV) oprema zajema nizkonapetostno (LV) opremo, ki je nepogrešljiv sestavni del opreme, ki deluje pri visoki napetosti. Zahteve v tem dokumentu zadevajo predvsem dele, ki delujejo pri visoki napetosti, razen kadar je izrecno navedeno drugače.
OPOMBA 1: Oprema, ki ni sestavni del visokonapetostne opreme, je obravnavana v standardu IEC 60204-1:2016.
OPOMBA 2: V tem dokumentu izraz »električni« zajema tako električne kot elektronske zadeve (tj. električna oprema pomeni tako električno kot tudi elektronsko opremo).
OPOMBA 3: Ta dokument se ne uporablja za neodvisne visokonapetostne napajalne inštalacije, za katere obstajajo posebni standardi IEC.
Električna oprema, ki je zajeta v tem dokumentu, se začne na točki povezave z napajanjem električne opreme stroja (glej točko 5.1).
OPOMBA 4: Zahteve za visokonapetostne napajalne inštalacije najdete v standardu IEC 61936-1. Ta dokument je splošni varnostni standard. Ne zajema vseh zahtev (npr. varovanja, spajanja ali nadzora), ki so potrebne ali zahtevane zaradi drugih standardov ali predpisov za zaščito osebja pred nevarnostmi, ki niso pogojene z virom električne energije. Vsaka vrsta stroja vključuje edinstvene zahteve, ki jih je treba izpolniti za zagotovitev ustrezne varnosti.
OPOMBA 5: Pri nekaterih strojih je lahko visokonapetostni napajalnik proizveden z blokovnim transformatorjem (avtotransformator), ki se napaja z nizkonapetostnim sistemom (npr. z nizkonapetostnim generatorjem).
OPOMBA 6: V okviru tega dokumenta izraz »oseba« zajema vse posameznike; »osebje« so tiste osebe, ki so dodeljene za uporabo ter vzdrževanje te opreme in ki jim je to naročil uporabnik ali njegov zastopnik.
Ta del standarda IEC 60204 vključuje zlasti (vendar ni omejen na) stroje, kot je opredeljeno v točki 3.29
(Dodatek A navaja primere strojev, katerih električno opremo je mogoče zajeti s tem dokumentom.).
Za zaščito pred električnim udarom z visokonapetostno opremo se ta dokument nanaša na standard IEC 61936-1. V zvezi z nizkonapetostno opremo se ta dokument nanaša na standard IEC 602041: 2016.
OPOMBA 7: V visokonapetostnih in nizkonapetostnih standardih se uporabljajo različni izrazi za zaščito pred električnim udarom. V visokonapetostnih standardih se uporabljata izraza »neposredni stik« in »posredni stik«, v nizkonapetostnih standardih pa se uporabljata izraza »osnovna zaščita« in »zaščita ob okvari«.
Dodatne in posebne zahteve lahko veljajo za električno opremo strojev, ki:
– se uporabljajo na prostem (tj. zunaj zgradb ali drugih zaščitnih struktur);
– uporabljajo, obdelujejo ali proizvajajo potencialno eksplozivni material (na primer barvo ali žagovino);
– so namenjeni uporabi v potencialno eksplozivnih in/ali vnetljivih atmosferah;
– predstavljajo posebna tveganja pri proizvodnji ali uporabi nekaterih materialov;
– se uporabljajo v rudnikih.
Nevarnosti, ki so posledica hrupa in vibracij, niso obravnavane v tem dokumentu.
