European foreword
This document (EN 12015:2020) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 10 “Lifts,
escalators and moving walks”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2020, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2020.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 12015:2014.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of
EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.
The limits given in this European Standard recognize the fact that the product family covers a total
range of lifts, escalators and moving walks used in residential buildings, offices, hospitals, hotels,
industrial plants, etc. and that lifts, escalators and moving walks are deemed to have their own
dedicated power supply and be connected with the consent of the electrical supplier to a low
impedance source.
The related EMC product family standard for immunity is:
EN 12016, Electromagnetic compatibility — Product family standard for lifts, escalators and moving
walks — Immunity
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland,
Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of
North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the
United Kingdom.
Introduction
This document is a Type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
This document has been prepared to provide one means of complying with the requirements of the
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive. The requirements of this document have been specified
so as to ensure a level of electromagnetic emission which will cause minimal disturbance to other
equipment. The levels, however, do not cover the following cases:
a) where the probability of an occurrence likely to produce emissions in excess of those which would
normally be experienced is extremely low, e.g. the emergency stopping of a lift, escalator or moving
walk under a fault condition;
b) where highly susceptible apparatus will be used in the close proximity of the equipment covered by
this document, in which case further measures may have to be taken to:
1) reduce the level of electromagnetic emission to below that specified in this document; or
2) increase the immunity of the affected apparatus.
The given emission limits, on the basis that equipment of the product family range may be installed
both indoor and outdoor in all types of building, involves the switching of heavy currents and high
inductive loads and, generally, is connected to a low voltage system.
Values for the harmonic emission limits are taken from the harmonized standard EN 61000-3-12:2011.
Taking into account the characteristics and environment of lifts, escalators and moving walks, these
harmonic values are applicable for all input currents without current limitation stated by
EN 61000-3-12:2011.
Due to the size of an installed lift, it becomes impracticable to test the total assembly either in a test
laboratory or in situ where the uncontrolled environment may also influence the test procedures and
results. This applies also to measurements within the car. Similar considerations regarding dimensions
apply equally to the testing of escalators and moving walks.
1 Scope
This document specifies the emission limits in relation to electromagnetic disturbances and test
conditions for lifts, escalators and moving walks, which are intended to be permanently installed in
buildings. These limits however, may not provide full protection against disturbances caused to radio
and TV reception when such equipment is used within distances given in Table 1.
This document is not applicable for apparatus which are manufactured before the date of its publication
as EN.
