109 FOREWORD
110 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
111 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
112 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
113 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technic al Reports,
114 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
115 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
116 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
117 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
118 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
119 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
120 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
121 interested IEC National Committees.
122 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
123 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technic al content of IEC
124 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
125 misinterpretation by any end user.
126 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publ ications
127 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
128 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
129 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
130 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
131 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
132 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
133 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
134 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
135 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
136 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
137 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
138 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
139 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
140 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
141 International Standard IEC XXXXX has been prepared by IEC technical committee 125:
142 Personal e-Transporters (PeTs).
143 In the case of a new edition replacing a previous edition, complete the following
144 text. In the case of a first edition, delete it, as it does not apply.

169 INTRODUCTION
170 This International Standard has been developed to cope with the rapidly evolving personnel e -
171 transporters. Personnel e-transporters have become common in public spaces and roads,
172 some of which can reach speeds of 25 km/h or even higher, and the applications and global
173 market size are expected to grow significantly. In order to protect safety for persons and public
174 facilities, besides basic safety requirements, comprehensive safety requirements and test
175 methods such as riding safety for people and for e-transporters shall also be considered. Based
176 on the current situation, this international standard provides comprehensive safety
177 requirements and corresponding test methods for personnel e-transporters, which is convenient
178 for manufacturers and test departments to use.
179 The following are not covered by this document because they are handled by other TCs:
