4 Trampoline categories
Trampolines shall be classified by the frame size, maximum user weight and frame height according to
Table 1.

Maximum user weight ≤ 25 ≤ 50 Manufacturer defined
in kg
Frame height of non- < 350 < 500 ≥ 500

The frame size for a circular trampoline is equal to the diameter (see Figure 2) while for non-circular
trampolines it is equal to the maximum distance between two opposite points of the outside of the
frame (e.g. the largest diagonal in the case of a rectangular trampoline).
If at least one of the measurements in Table 1 is exceeded, the trampoline shall be classified in the
closest higher category.
5 General requirements
5.1 Exemptions from certain requirements in EN 71-1 (see A.2)
The requirements in EN 71-1 are applicable to trampolines for domestic use with exemptions for the
requirements under the following headings in EN 71-1:
— edges (EN 71-1:2014+A1:2018, 4.7);
— points and metallic wires (EN 71-1:2014+A1:2018, 4.8);
— protruding parts (EN 71-1:2014+A1:2018, 4.9);
— toys which a child can enter (EN 71-1:2014+A1:2018, 4.14.1).
The above-mentioned requirements from EN 71-1 are not exempted for trampolines intended for
children under 36 months.
NOTE This European standard specifies specific requirements for edges, sharp points and protruding parts
for trampolines for domestic use (see 5.6.2, sharp edges and sharp points and 5.6.3) which is why the
corresponding requirements of EN 71–1 do not apply to trampolines (for children of 36 months and over).
5.2 General requirements for the trampoline construction (see A.3)
5.2.1 Requirements for mini-trampolines (see Clause 4)
Mini-trampolines shall be provided with anti-slip feet. Such trampolines shall not slip when tested
according to EN 13219:2008, 5.2.
Mini-trampolines may be equipped with handrails to assist the balance of the user. Mini-trampolines
may be equipped with an enclosure. If mini-trampolines are equipped with handrails, they shall not be
equipped with an enclosure.
NOTE See 5.2.3.2 for requirements on enclosures.

SIST EN 71-14:2019
EN 71-14:2018 (E)
5.2.2 Requirements for medium and large trampolines (see Clause 4)
5.2.2.1 Non-buried trampolines
Non-buried large trampolines shall have a frame height of ≥ 500 mm.
Non-buried medium and large trampolines shall be equipped with an enclosure but shall not be
equipped with a handrail.
NOTE See 5.2.3.2 for requirements on enclosures.
5.2.2.2 Raised buried trampolines
Raised buried medium and large trampolines shall be equipped with an enclosure but shall not be
equipped with a handrail.
NOTE See 5.2.3.2 for requirements on enclosures.
If any part of a raised buried trampoline is located below ground level a retaining wall system as
specified in 5.2.2.3 shall be provided.
5.2.2.3 Ground-levelled trampolines
The frame of ground-levelled trampolines shall be levelled with the ground. A tolerance of ± 50 mm is
acceptable.
Ground-levelled medium and large trampolines shall not be equipped with a handrail. They shall
— either be equipped with an enclosure; or
— be provided with means of ensuring a soft surface (e.g. impact absorbing material) of 1,0 m
measured from the edge of the jumping area. The soft surface on and outside the frame shall comply
with EN 1176-1:2017, 4.2.8.5 (Protection against injuries from the surface of the impact area) with
a critical fall height of 1,5 m. The soft surface shall be flat. A tolerance of ± 50 mm is acceptable.
NOTE 1 See 5.2.3.2 for requirements on enclosures.
NOTE 2 The soft surface may consist of e.g. impact absorbing material. It can be the same material as the
padding if the material complies with the requirements in 5.2.2.3 and 5.8.
Ground-levelled trampolines shall be provided with a retaining wall system to avoid soil or other
substances from falling beneath the structure.
When tested according to 7.8, the retaining wall system shall not:
— break;
— deform in such a way that it enters the safety zone (see Figure 13); or
— permanently deform.
If the frame of the ground-levelled trampoline is resting on a ledge the height of the retaining wall
system (H) shall be equal or more than the lengths of the ledge (l, see Figure 3).
