SNZ AS/NZS 62841.2.17
Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery – Safety – Part 2.17: Particular requirements for hand-held routers
This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee EL-002 - Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances and Small Power Transformers to supersede AS/NZS 60745.2.17:2011 three years from the date of publication. During this period AS/NZS 60745.2.17:2011 will also remain current. Regulatory authorities that reference this Standard in regulation may apply these requirements at a different time. Users of this Standard should consult with these authorities to confirm their requirements.
The objective of this Standard is to provide manufacturers, designers, regulatory authorities, testing laboratories and similar organizations with safety requirements designed to give the user protection against hazards that might occur during normal operation and abnormal operation of the appliance and which may be used as the basis for approval for sale or for connection to the electricity supply mains in Australia and New Zealand.
The text of IEC 62841-2-17 Ed 1, prepared by IEC Technical Committee TC 116, was submitted to the Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Combined Procedure (dual public comment and committee vote) for adoption of the IEC standard as a Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand joint standard.
This Standard is an adoption with national modifications of the first edition of IEC 62841-2-17 Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery - Safety - Part 2-17 Particular requirements for hand-held routers. It has been varied as indicated to take account of Australian and New Zealand conditions.
This part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of AS/NZS 62841.1 so as to convert it into the Australian/New Zealand Standard: Safety requirements for hand-held routers.
p NOTE 3 In this document, p is used in the margin to indicate instructions for preparing a consolidated version.
The essential safety requirements in AS/NZS 38201 that could be applicable to requirements for hand-held routers are covered by this standard.
The national variations to IEC 62841-2-17 Ed 1 form the Australian and New Zealand national variations for purposes of the IECEE scheme for recognition of results of testing to standards for safety of electrical equipment (the CB scheme).
