Introduction
A reliable anchor device and safety hook are essential components to attach any personal fall protection
equipment.
This document is intended to act as a complementary standard for existing European Standards covering
other components used in fall protection systems.
Permanent anchor devices and safety hooks intend to prevent persons from falling and to arrest falls
used in and on buildings and civil engineering works. These products meant to be secured in such a way
that they are part of the construction work and intended to ensure the safety in use or in the functioning
of a construction work.
The purpose and scope of application and the performance characteristics are based on the need that, in
the case of fall from height, anchor kits and safety hook kits bear the dynamic force peak value generated
by the mass of one or more persons, including any equipment carried.
This document is intended for the testing of new products before placing them on the market and gives
only minimum per
