This amendment A11 modifies the European Standard EN 61029-1:2000; it was approved by CENELEC
on 2002-10-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations
which stipulate the conditions for giving this amendment the status of a national standard without any
alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This amendment exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language
made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified to the
Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta,
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Replace the existing 13.2 by:
13.2 Noise
13.2.1 Noise reduction
Noise reduction at tools is an integral part of the design process and shall be achieved by
particularly applying measures at source to control noise, see for example EN ISO 11688-1.
The success of the applied noise reduction measures is assessed on the basis of the actual
noise emission values in relation to other machines of the same family with comparable non
acoustical technical data.
The major sound sources of tools are given in the relevant Part 2.

13.2.2 Noise emission measurement (general)
L and the sound power
Noise emission values like the emission sound pressure level
pA
level L to be quoted in the user instructions as required by 7.13 shall be measured by the
WA
test procedure described in 13.2.3 to 13.2.6.
The overall noise emitted is influenced by both the process noise and method of operation.
The load conditions for particular tools are therefore specified in the relevant Part 2.
The noise emission values obtained under the measurement conditions described in this
standard will not necessarily correspond to the diverse noise levels produced under the
operational conditions of practical use.
NOTE It is not possible to simulate all conditions of practical use. A statement of process noise could therefore
− be misleading and cause faulty assessment of the risk in individual cases,
− discourage the development of more silent machines,
− lead to low repeatability of measurements and thus cause problems when verifying stated noise values,
− make the comparison of the noise emission from different tools difficult.

13.2.3 Instrumentation and preparation of test samples
The instrumentation for the measurement of acoustic values shall be in accordance with
EN lSO 3744.
Sound level meters shall comply with the requirements of IEC 60651 Type 1 and shall be
used with frequency weighting "A" and response level "S".
Measurements shall be carried out on a new tool, additional to that required by other tests.
All speed setting devices shall be adjusted to the highest figure.
Tools shall be run-in for a period of 5 min before starting test. The supply voltage of mains
powered tools is measured at the plug of the cable or cord supplied, not at the plug of any
extension cable or cord.
13.2.4 Operating conditions
Tools are tested under the two operating conditions "no load" and "load".
The measurement under "load" shall be carried out during processing of a work piece or
under external mechanical load equivalent to normal operation.

If the tool is intended to be used on a bench then it shall be in accordance with the test
bench shown in Figure 12.
If the tool is intended to
