IEC 60335-2-95:2023
Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-95: Particular requirements for drives for vertically moving garage doors for residential use
Product Details
The drive can be supplied with a garage door.
This standard also applies to entrapment protection devices for use with drives. It does not cover hazards related to the mechanisms of the door itself.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account playing with the appliance by young children, but recognizes that children can be in the vicinity of the garage door.
For appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary. In many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour, the national water supply authorities and similar authorities.
This standard does not apply to drives
– for shutters, awnings, blinds and similar equipment (IEC 60335-2-97);
– for gates, doors and windows (IEC 60335-2-103);
– for commercial and industrial purposes;
– intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).
This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2019. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) the text has been aligned with IEC 60335-1:2020;
b) scope includes DC-supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances (Clause 1);
c) some notes have been converted to normative text (Clause 1, 7.12.1, 7.101, 20.103, 20.107, 22.104);
d) application of test probe 19 has been introduced (8.1.1, 20.2);
e) addition of surface temperatures for external accessible surfaces (11.3, 11.8);
f) requirements are added for drives intended for permanent connection delivered with a connector to ease the installation (22.110, 24.1.101, 25.3);
g) clarification for connectors that are non-detachable once engaged (24.1.5).
This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments unless that edition precludes it; in that case, the latest edition that does not preclude it is used. It was established on the basis of the sixth edition (2020) of that standard.
