Overview
EN IEC 61084-1:2024/A11:2024 is the latest amendment to the European Standard covering cable trunking and ducting systems used in electrical installations. Developed by the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC) under the technical committee CLC/TC 213, this amendment introduces key updates to ensure enhanced safety, durability, and electromagnetic compatibility of cable management systems (CMS).
This standard aligns with the IEC 61084-1:2017 edition 2.0, incorporating common modifications for its adoption as a European Standard. It applies to cable trunking and ducting systems designed for electrical installations, focusing on general requirements including mechanical, thermal, fire, and environmental properties.
Key Topics
This amendment A11 brings several noteworthy changes and additions to the existing standard:
Normative References Update: Incorporation of new international publications such as EN IEC 63355:2022 for halogen content testing and CLC/TS 50659:2022 for electromagnetic characteristics of CMS.
Classification Enhancements:
- Improved definitions for access cover retention reflecting tool-less and deliberate-action requirements.
- Optional classification by halogen content to promote environmentally friendly and safer installations.
Mechanical Properties Revisions:
- Modifications in impact testing protocols ensuring electrical safety by preventing internal cracks and sharp edges that could damage cables.
Thermal Properties Clarifications:
- Updated testing conditions for non-metallic or composite components, specifying test temperature adjustments for parts in contact with current-carrying conductors.
Fire Hazard Testing Improvements:
- Adoption of the latest fire hazard test methods (IEC 60695-2-11:2021 and IEC 60695-11-2:2017 method B) to better assess ignition and fire spread potential.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC):
- Defined CMS as passive devices in terms of emission and immunity, ensuring no interference with other electrical equipment.
New Environmental and Electromagnetic Clauses:
- Clause 16 introduces environmental properties focusing on halogen-free declarations to reduce harmful emissions.
- Clause 17 details electromagnetic characteristics, allowing manufacturers to declare shielding effectiveness and transfer impedance tested according to CLC/TS 50659:2022.
Annex and Reference Updates:
- Replacement and addition of normative references for international and European publications which support compliance verification.
Applications
EN IEC 61084-1:2024/A11:2024 is critical for designers, manufacturers, and installers involved in electrical infrastructure projects. Its practical applications include:
- Electrical Installations: Ensures safe and reliable routing and protection of cables in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
- Cable Management System Design: Helps manufacturers comply with rigorous mechanical, thermal, and environmental standards, increasing product quality.
- Fire Safety Engineering: Equips safety engineers with updated testing protocols to minimize fire hazards associated with cable systems.
- Electromagnetic Compatibility Planning: Supports integration of cable trunking and ducting in complex electrical environments, preventing electromagnetic interference.
- Environmental Compliance: Promotes sustainable installation practices by encouraging halogen-free materials and reducing toxic emissions in fire incidents.
Related Standards
This amendment references and aligns with multiple other standards to form a comprehensive framework for cable management systems:
- EN IEC 63355:2022 – Cable management systems test for halogen content.
- CLC/TS 50659:2022 – Electromagnetic characteristics testing of linear cable management systems (CMS).
- IEC 60695 Series – Test methods for fire hazard evaluation.
- IEC 62262:2002 – Degrees of protection by enclosures (impact resistance).
- IEC 60364-5-52:2009 – Electrical installations of buildings – Selection and erection of electrical equipment.
- ISO 2768-1 – General tolerances for linear and angular dimensions.
Understanding these interconnected standards ensures that cable trunking and duct systems meet European safety, environmental, and performance requirements.
