This amendment A11 modifies the European Standard EN IEC 62841-2-6:2020; it was approved by CENELEC on 2020-08-10. 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 CEN-CENELEC
Management Centre 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

European foreword
This document EN IEC 62841-2-6:2020/A11:2020 has been prepared by CLC/TC 116 “Safety and
environmental aspects of motor-operated electric tools”.
The following dates are fixed:
• latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2021-08-10
implemented at national level by publication of
an identical national standard or by
endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards (dow) 2024-08-10
to be
conflicting with this document have
withdrawn
This document modifies by common modifications EN IEC 62841-2-6:2020, which consists of the text of
116/459/FDIS (future IEC 62841-2-6, Ed. 1) prepared by IEC/TC 116 ”Safety of motor-operated electric
tools“.
This European Standard is divided into four parts:
Part 1: General requirements which are common to most hand-held electric motor operated tools
(for the purpose of this standard referred to simply as tools) which could come within the
scope of this standard;
Part 2, 3 or 4: Requirements for particular types of tools which either supplement or modify the
requirements given in Part 1 to account for the particular hazards and characteristics of these
specific tools.
The following print types are used:
— requirements; in roman type
— test specifications: in italic type;
— notes: in smaller roman type.
The terms defined in Clause 3 are printed in bold typeface.
Subclauses, notes, tables and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting
from 101.
Clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes which are additional to those in
IEC 62841-2-6:2020 are prefixed “Z”.
This document follows the overall requirements of EN ISO 12100.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission and
the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For the relationship with EU Directive(s) see informative Annex ZZ, which is an integral part of this
document.
Compliance with the clauses of Part 1 together with Part 2-6 provides one means of conforming with the
essential health and safety requirements of the Directive concerned.
1 Modification to Clause 1, “Scope”
Add the following to the existing Clause 1:
“This document covers all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant for tools
covered by this standard.
NOTE Z101 Essential requirements not mentioned in Table ZZ.1 are deemed to be not applicable, because the
corresponding hazards are either not relevant for tools covered by this standard or do not require specific action by the
designer.”
2 Modification to Annex I, “Measurement of noise and vibration emissions”
Replace the title of Annex I with the following:
“Annex I
(normative)
Measurement of noise and vibration emissions”
and delete the NOTE.
3 Modification to Annex K, “Battery tools and battery packs”
Add the following new subclause:
K.21.18.Z101 Isolation and disabling device
Rotary hammers with an integral battery shall be equipped
— with an isolation device to prevent the risk of injury from mechanical hazards during servicing or user
maintenance; or
— with a disabling device that prevents unintentional starting of the tool.
An isolation device shall
— provide disconnection of all poles of the battery from the serviceable region of the tool;
— be equipped with an unambiguous indication of the state of the disconnection device which
corresponds to each position of its manual control (actuator);
— be provided with protection against accidental reconnection.
NOTE 1 Examples of methods to achieve this disconnection include removable jumpers, integral batteries that
can be disconnected for servicing or user maintenance, or an electromechanical power switch with a direct
mechanical link between the actuator and the contact.
NOTE 2 The risk of accidental reconnection for a power switch is addressed by the requirement of 21.18.1.2. The
other examples in NOTE 1 achieve this by the necessary actions for reconnection.
A disabling device may be achieved by any of the following:
— a self-restoring or non-self-restoring lock-off device where two separate and dissimilar actions are
necessary before the motor is switched on (e.g. a power switch which has to be pushed in before it
can be moved laterally to close the contacts to start the motor). It shall not be possible to achieve these
two actions with a single grasping motion or a straight-line motion;
— a removable disabling device provided with the tool where it shall not be possible for the tool to be
operated when either applied or removed.
Compliance is checked by inspection and by manual test.
4 Modification to Annex L, “Battery tools and battery packs provided with mains
connection or non-isolated sources”
Add the following new subclause:
L.21.18.Z101 Isolation and disabling device
Rotary hammers with an integral battery shall be equipped
— with an isolation device to prevent the risk of injury from mechanical hazards during servicing or user
maintenance; or
— with a disabling device that prevents unintentional starting of the tool.
An isolation device shall
— provide disconnection of all poles of the battery from the serviceable region of the tool;
— be equipped with an unambiguous in
