Overview

EN 60335-2-76:2005/prAG is a CENELEC draft amendment to the European safety standard EN 60335-2-76, which sets particular safety requirements for electric fence energizers. The EN 60335 family covers the safety of household and similar electrical appliances; Part 2-76 addresses the unique hazards and test needs of devices used to energize animal fencing. The prAG document was prepared by CLC/TC 61 and issued for enquiry (deadline 2013-03-15). A later decision (2013-09-25) merged prAG into prAE (PR=23101).

Key topics and requirements

• Scope and purpose: Focus on electrical safety, construction and testing of electric fence energizers used in livestock and similar installations (ICS 65.040.10 / 65.040.99).
• Draft amendment status: prAG is a draft amendment to EN 60335-2-76:2005 circulated for CENELEC member comment; it is not a finalized European Standard.
• Construction and test language: The amendment includes text changes to Clause 22 (Construction). For example, one explicit change replaces the term “normal operating conditions” with “test conditions according to Subclause 22.108” to clarify the test regime.
• Regulatory process: The draft highlights CENELEC procedures, multilingual publication (EN/FR/DE), and the requirement for members to identify relevant patent rights when commenting.
• Compliance implications: If adopted as an amendment, members must implement it as a national standard without alteration.

Applications and who uses it

• Manufacturers and designers of electric fence energizers use EN 60335-2-76 and its amendments to design products that meet European safety expectations.
• Testing laboratories and conformity assessors rely on the standard’s construction and test requirements (e.g., Subclause 22.108) to perform safety evaluations and type testing.
• Regulators and procurement authorities reference the standard for safety compliance in agricultural and livestock installations.
• Installers and maintenance teams benefit indirectly by understanding required safety features and test conditions specified for approved energizers.

Related standards

• EN 60335 series (general safety requirements for household and similar electrical appliances)
• National adoptions of EN 60335-2-76 and any subsequent amendments (prAE/prAF/prAG consolidation)
• CENELEC/CLC guidance and internal regulations governing adoption and notification
