Overview
EN IEC 60335-2-103:2023/A2:2023 (CENELEC) is an amendment to IEC 60335-2-103 addressing the safety of electric drives for gates, doors, garage doors and windows used in household and similar applications. The standard applies to drives with rated voltages up to 250 V for single‑phase units and 480 V for other drives, and specifically covers hazards associated with the movement of the driven part. This document (A2) updates definitions, marking/instruction requirements, heating and abnormal‑operation tests, and several annexes for entrapment protection and impact‑force limits.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and ratings: Covers horizontally and vertically moving driven parts for household and similar use; voltage limits clearly defined (≤250 V single‑phase, ≤480 V others).
- New definitions: Adds terms such as main closing edge and opposing closing edge to clarify entrapment and impact‑force testing.
- Marking and instructions:
- Drives supplied without driven parts must be marked with rated load (N or Nm) and operating‑time/cycle ratings.
- Instructions must warn against child access, manual‑release risks, biased‑off switches, and maintenance/inspection needs.
- Manufacturer identity and model can be provided via visible labels (e.g., matrix barcode) after installation.
- Heating and duty cycles:
- Distinguishes continuous vs non‑continuous operation.
- Specifies test cycles for gate, garage door and window drives (e.g., household gates/garage doors tested for three cycles or the rated operating time, whichever is longer).
- Drives rated in cycles per hour are tested at +20% of rated cycles with declared rest periods.
- Abnormal operation and safety behavior:
- If a drive can operate under simulated faults, it must either continue to meet requirements or stop after one cycle with the driven part in a safe position or switch to biased‑off mode.
- Supply connection and Class III rules:
- Clarifies temperature rise exemptions and pull‑force testing thresholds for Class III appliances.
- Annexes:
- DD: tests for horizontally/vertically moving doors and gates (including obstacle specification).
- GG: entrapment protection for revolving doors.
- HH: permissible dynamic forces for pedestrian doors.
- JJ: low‑energy movement requirements.
Applications and Users
Who uses this standard:
- Manufacturers of gate drives, garage door motors, window actuators and door operators for residential/commercial buildings
- Test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies performing safety and type testing
- Installers, specifiers, and building safety engineers requiring compliance guidance
- Regulatory and certification bodies applying CENELEC/IEC requirements in Europe
Practical uses:
- Designing safe door/gate drives that meet entrapment, impact‑force and thermal limits
- Preparing technical documentation, markings and user instructions
- Establishing test programs for type approval and CE marking
