This part applies to the application of electrical and electronic equipment and systems to machines not portable by hand while working, including a group of machines working together in a coordinated manner but excluding higher level systems aspects (i.e. communications between systems).
Note 1: In this standard, the term electrical includes both electrical and electronic matters (i.e. electrical equipment means both the electrical and the electronic equipment).
Note 2: In the context of this standard, the term person refers to any individual and includes those persons who are assigned and instructed by the user or his agent(s) in the use and care of the machine in question.
The equipment covered by this standard commences at the point of connection of the supply to the electrical equipment of the machine (see 5.1).
Note 3: For the requirements for the electrical supply installation in buildings, see IEC 60364.
This part is applicable to the electrical equipment or parts of the electrical equipment that operate with nominal supply voltages not exceeding 1 000V for alternating current and not exceeding 1500V for direct current, and with nominal frequencies not exceeding 200Hz. For higher voltages or frequencies, special requirements may be needed.
This part is an application standard and is not intended to limit or inhibit technological advancement. It does not cover all the requirements (e.g. guarding, interlocking, or control) that are needed or required by other standards or regulations in order to safeguard persons from hazards other than electrical hazards. Each type of machine has unique requirements to be accommodated to provide adequate safety.
This part specifically includes, but is not limited to, the electrical equipment of machines as defined in 3.33 (annex A lists examples of machines whose electrical equipment may be covered by this standard).
Additional and special requirements can apply to the electrical equipment of machines that:
—are used in open air (i.e. outside buildings or other protective structures);
—use, process, or produce potentially explosive material (e.g. paint or sawdust);
—are used in potentially explosive and/or flammable atmospheres;
—have special risks when producing or using certain materials;
—are used in mines;
—are sewing machines, units, and systems (which are covered by IEC 60204-31);
—are hoisting machines (which are covered by IEC 60204-32).
Power circuits where electrical energy is directly used as a working tool are excluded from this part.
