Overview - EN IEC 60730-1:2024 (Automatic electrical controls - Part 1: General requirements)
EN IEC 60730-1:2024 (adopting IEC 60730-1:2022) sets the general requirements for automatic electrical controls intended for use in, on, or in association with household appliances and similar equipment. The standard addresses both inherent safety and functional safety, and covers controls whose performance (including EMC effects) can influence the safety and performance of the controlled system. It specifies requirements for construction, operation, marking and testing to ensure safe, reliable operation of automatic controls.
Key facts:
- European adoption of IEC 60730-1:2022, approved by CENELEC (Jan 2024).
- Applies to automatic electrical controls for household and similar use.
- Requires national implementation (e.g., deadline 2025-04-25 as indicated in the European foreword).
Key topics and technical requirements
EN IEC 60730-1:2024 organizes technical requirements across many areas; notable topics include:
- Scope and definitions: terminology for ratings, control types, software-related terms and functional safety classes.
- Required technical information and marking: user and installer information, Class II symbol, warnings.
- Protection against electric shock: construction methods, actuating members, insulation and covers.
- Earthing and terminals: protective earthing, terminal design and integrity for internal/external conductors.
- Constructional requirements: materials, mounting, openings, cord attachment and strain relief.
- Software and functional safety: requirements for controls using software, fault/error control techniques, memory tests.
- Fault assessment: inherent-safety and functional-safety fault analysis for electronic circuits.
- Environmental and mechanical tests: moisture/dust resistance, electric strength, heating, endurance, manufacturing drift and environmental stress.
- Creepage, clearances and insulation: requirements to limit electric breakdown and leakage.
- Components: transformers, switch-mode power supplies, capacitors, relays, fuses and other parts.
