FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
IEC 62196-2 has been prepared by IEC subcommittee 23H: Plugs, socket-outlets and couplers
for industrial and similar applications, and for electric vehicles, of IEC technical committee 23:
Electrical accessories. It is an International Standard.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2016. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous

65 FOREWORD
66 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
67 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
68 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
69 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
70 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
71 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
72 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
73 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
74 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
75 agreement between the two organizations.
76 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
77 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
78 interested IEC National Committees.
79 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
80 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
81 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
82 misinterpretation by any end user.
83 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
84 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
85 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
86 the latter.
87 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
88 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
89 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
90 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
91 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
92 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
93 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
94 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
95 Publications.
96 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
97 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
98 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
99 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
