Add after “RATING, PROTECTIVE CURRENT….1.2.13.17” in the list of “Definitions in alphabetical
order of nouns” the following new entry:
SHREDDER (DOCUMENT/MEDIA, HOUSEHOLD AND HOME/OFFICE) ….1.2.13.18
Add, after the existing definition 1.2.13.17, the following new definition:
1.2.13.18
(HOUSEHOLD AND HOME/OFFICE DOCUMENT/MEDIA) SHREDDER
equipment with a plug configuration associated with PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT TYPE A, or battery
operated equipment, designed to shred paper or other forms of media as instructed by the
manufacturer
NOTE 1 Examples of other forms of media include but are not limited to digital video disks, compact disks, flash
memory, magnetic strip cards, or magnetic disks, or the like.
NOTE 2 HOUSEHOLD AND HOME/OFFICE DOCUMENT/MEDIA SHREDDERS are typically identified as either strip-cut type
or cross-cut type. A strip-cut HOUSEHOLD AND HOME/OFFICE DOCUMENT/MEDIA SHREDDER shreds the paper into long
strips using a motor-based shredding mechanism. A cross-cut DOCUMENT/MEDIA SHREDDER shreds paper two or
more ways into tiny particles, typically using a more powerful motor and more complex shredding mechanism.
NOTE 3 A document/media shredder is considered to be non-household or non-home/office type if the
document/media shredder is provided with a plug configuration associated with PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT TYPE B, or is
PERMANENTLY CONNECTED EQUIPMENT.

insulation
Replace the existing note of this subclause by the following new note:
NOTE In Finland, Norway and Sweden resistors bridging BASIC INSULATION in CLASS I PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT TYPE
A must comply with 1.5.7.1. In addition when a single resistor is used, the resistor must withstand the resistor test
in 1.5.7.2.
1.5.7.2 Resistors bridging double insulation or reinforced insulation between the a.c.
mains supply and other circuits
Replace the fifth paragraph of this subclause by the following new paragraph:
If an accessible conductive part or circuit is separated from another part by DOUBLE
INSULATION or REINFORCED INSULATION that is bridged by a resistor or group of resistors, the
accessible part or circuit shall comply with the requirements for a LIMITED CURRENT CIRCUIT in
2.4 between the accessible conductive part or circuit and earth. If a group of resistors is used,
the current measurement in 2.4.2 is made with each resistor short-circuited in turn, unless the
group passes the resistor test below. When measuring the LIMITED CURRENT CIRCUIT, the
ammeter is placed between the load side of the bridging components and any USER
accessible part, including earth.
1.5.9.4 Bridging of basic insulation by a VDR
After the existing note of this subclause, add the following new paragraph:
It is permitted to use a gas discharge tube (GDT) in series with a VDR that bridges BASIC
INSULATION in accordance with the conditions in this subclause if the GDT complies with the
FUNCTIONAL INSULATION.

not be marked with any electrical rating, such as its RATED VOLTAGE, RATED CURRENT or RATED
FREQUENCY. If the equipment, or a system, has multiple MAINS SUPPLY connections, each
individual MAINS SUPPLY electrical rating must be marked, but the overall equipment or system
electrical rating need not be marked.
