Bibliography

IEC 60947-5-1:2016 applies to control circuit devices and switching elements intended for controlling, signalling, interlocking, etc., of switchgear and controlgear. It applies to control circuit devices having a rated voltage not exceeding 1 000 V a.c. (at a frequency not exceeding 1 000 Hz) or 600 V d.c. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2003 and its Amendment 1:2009. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) update of normative references;
b) update and restructuration of subclauses in 7.1;
c) addition of material requirements and test;
d) udpate of EMC requirements;
e) clarification of requirements and update of 8.2;
f) addition of requirements for screwless-type clamping units;
g) udpate of existing Tables 4 and 5;
h) addition of new Tables 6, 7, 8 and 9;
i) addition of a new Figure 10 ;
j) addition of a new Annex N.
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60947-1:2007.
The contents of the corrigendum of July 2016 and the corrigendum of April 2020 have been included in this copy.
