Dans la mesure du possible, la présente norme traite des risques ordinaires présentés par les motorisations, encourus par toutes les personnes à l'intérieur et autour de l'habitation. Cependant, cette norme ne tient pas compte en général
- des personnes (y compris des enfants) dont les capacités physiques, sensorielles ou mentales;
- ou le manque d'expérience et de connaissance les empêchent d'utiliser la motorisation en toute sécurité sans surveillance ou instruction. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2002, son Amendement 1 (2004) et son Amendement 2 (2008). Elle constitue une révision technique. Par rapport à la deuxième édition de l'IEC 60335-2-97, les principales modifications indiquées ci-après ont été apportées (les modifications mineures ne sont pas mentionnées):
- Suppression de l'adjectif "enroulables" dans le titre et modification du domaine d'application pour couvrir des types d'appareils autres que les volets, les stores et les rideaux qui sont ouverts et fermés par enroulement;
- Révision de 19.13 pour permettre aux motorisations d'atteindre une position sûre;
- Ajout de 19.101 pour fournir un nouvel essai de fonctionnement anormal pour les motorisations ayant une durée de fonctionnement assignée;

Part 2-97: Particular requirements for drives for shutters,
awnings, blinds and similar equipment
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.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This part of International Standard IEC 60335 has been prepared by IEC technical committee
61: Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2002 including its
Amendment 1 (2004) and its Amendment 2 (2008). It constitutes a technical revision.
The principal changes in this edition as compared with the second edition of IEC 60335-2-97
are as follows (minor changes are not listed):
– Deleted “rolling” from the title and modified the scope to cover appliance types other than
shutters, awnings, and blinds that are operated in a rolling way;
– Revised 19.13 to allow drives to obtain a safe position;
– Added 19.101 to provide a new abnormal test for drives with rated operating time;
---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
SIST EN IEC 60335-2-97:2023
IEC 60335-2-97:2016 © IEC 2016 – 5 –
– Added 20.104.4 to establish a test intended to cover horizontal movement (non-rolling)
drive parts;
– Added 20.104.5 to provide an additional test to cover rolling grills to address the risk of
being lifted;
– Modified 22.46 and Annex R to introduce software requirements for programmable
electronic circuits used to comply with Clause 20;
– Added 22.101 to introduce a requirement to prevent inadvertent adjustments that would
lead to unsafe application of drives;
– Added examples of swing shutters and sliding shutters in Figure 101.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

INTRODUCTION
It has been assumed in the drafting of this International Standard that the execution of its
provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced persons.
This standard recognizes the internationally accepted level of protection against hazards such
as electrical, mechanical, thermal, fire and radiation of appliances when operated as in
normal use taking into account the manufacturer's instructions. It also covers abnormal
situations that can be expected in practice and takes into account the way in which
electromagnetic phenomena can affect the safe operation of appliances.
This standard takes into account the requirements of IEC 60364 as far as possible so that
there is compatibility with the wiring rules when the appliance is connected to the supply
mains. However, national wiring rules may differ.
If an appliance within the scope of this standard also incorporates functions that are covered
by another part 2 of IEC 60335, the relevant part 2 is applied to each function separately, as
far as is reasonable. If applicable, the influence of one function on the other is taken into
account.
When a part 2 standard does not include additional requirements to cover hazards dealt with
in Part 1, Part 1 applies.
NOTE 1 This means that the technical committees responsible for the part 2 standards have determined that it is
not necessary to specify particular requirements for the drive in question over and above the general
requirements.
This standard is a product family standard dealing with the safety of drives and takes
precedence over horizontal and generic standards covering the same subject.
NOTE 2 Horizontal and generic standards covering a hazard are not applicable since they have been taken into
consideration when developing the general and particular requirements for the IEC 60335 series of standards. For
example, in the case of temperature requirements for surfaces on many appliances, generic standards, such as
ISO 13732-1 for hot surfaces, are not applicable in addition to Part 1 or part 2 standards.
An appliance that complies with the text of this standard will not necessarily be considered to
comply with the safety principles of the standard if, when examined and tested, it is found to
have other features that impair the level of safety covered by these requirements.
An appliance employing materials or having forms of construction differing from those detailed
in the requirements of this standard may be examined and tested according to the intent of
the requirements and, if found to be substantially equivalent, may be considered to comply
with the standard.

HOUSEHOLD AND SIMILAR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES –
SAFETY –
Part 2-97: Particular requirements for drives for shutters,
awnings, blinds and similar equipment
1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This International Standard deals with the safety of electric drives for shutters, blinds and
awnings, intended for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more
than 250 V for single-phase drives and 480 V for other drives.
NOTE 101 Battery-operated drives and other d.c. supplied drives are within the scope of this standard.
NOTE 102 Examples of equipment that can be driven are
– spring controlled folding arm awnings;
– curtains;
– grilles covering doors and windows;
– projection screens;
– shutters covering doors and windows;
– draperies.
Examples are shown in Figure 101.
NOTE 103 Drives may be supplied with a driven part.
Drives not intended for normal household use but that nevertheless may be a source of
danger to the public, such as drives intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry,
on farms and on industrial premises, are within the scope of this standard.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by drives
that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not
take into account
– persons (including children) whose
• physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or
• lack of experience and knowledge
prevents them from using the drive safely without supervision or instruction;
– children playing with the drive.
NOTE 104 Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for drives intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be
necessary;
