This document provides specific emission and immunity requirements, tests and performance criteria for residual current-operated protective devices (RCDs), for household and similar use, for rated voltages not exceeding 440 V.
Household and similar use corresponds to the description given in the generic standard IEC 61000-6-1 for residential, commercial, and light-industrial electromagnetic environments.
This document is intended to be referred to by RCD product standards and is not intended to be used as a standalone document.
Residual current-operated protective devices are:
- Residual current operated circuit-breakers without integral overcurrent protection for household and similar use (RCCBs) covered by IEC 61008 series and IEC 62423;
- Residual current operated circuit-breakers with integral overcurrent protection for household and similar use (RCBOs) covered by IEC 61009 series and IEC 62423;

31 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
34 FOREWORD

35 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising

36 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international

37 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and

38 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,

39 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their

40 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with

41 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising

42 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for

43 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.

44 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international

45 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all

46 interested IEC National Committees.

47 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National

48 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC

49 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any

50 misinterpretation by any end user.

51 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications

52 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between

53 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.

54 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity

55 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any

56 services carried out by independent certification bodies.

57 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.

58 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and

59 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or

60 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and

61 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC

62 Publications.

63 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is

64 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

65 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent

66 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

67 International Standard IEC 61543 has been prepared by subcommittee 23E: Circuit-breakers

68 and similar equipment for household use, of IEC technical committee 23: Electrical accessories

69 This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1995, Amendment 1:2004

70 and Amendment 2:2005. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

71 This edition includes the following significant changes with respect to the previous edition:

72 a) some editorial modifications were introduced to comply to the ISO/IEC DIR 2 /

73 Ed.7.0, 2016, e.g. introduction of Clause 3 – Terms and Definitions and renumbering

74 of the whole document. In particular, the number of performance criteria has been

75 changed (5.1.1, 5.1.2 becomes A, B, etc…);
76 b) some technical improvements
