Where the regulation applies

The regulation applies to low-voltage equipment rated from 50 to 1,000 V AC or 75 to 1,500 V DC, inclusive. Identification includes checking exclusions, intended use and whether other technical regulations also apply.

What the regulation covers

Requirements cover protection against electric shock, overheating, fire and hazardous mechanical effects. Assessment addresses insulation, protective measures, resistance to external influences, marking and information for safe use.

Examples of products and facilities

  • household electrical appliances
  • luminaires
  • cables and wires
  • switches and socket outlets
  • distribution equipment
  • electric motors
  • power supplies

These examples are indicative. Applicability depends on intended use, specifications and the regulation’s exclusions.

Documentation we help prepare

PLANCK helps determine whether certification or declaration applies, prepare technical documentation and marking, and coordinate testing and the applicable conformity document.

Before selecting a route, we check the current text, effective date, transitional provisions and exclusions. Listing a regulation does not mean it already applies to every product in that category.

What to prepare

  • Technical description and intended use
  • The key parameters listed above
  • Models, manufacturer and applicant details
  • Existing conformity evidence

What you receive

A requirements matrix for your product: scope, assessment route, necessary evidence and next actions.
