1 Modification to Introduction
Add:
The relevant requirements of Annex ZE of Part 1 have been incorporated in the text of this Part 2.
The intended use of the drives covered by this standard is for them to be installed together with shutters,
awnings or blinds and the necessary ancillary components (e.g. controls, safety devices) to create a
power operated shutter, awning or blind, the safety of which is ensured by this standard and the product
standards EN 13659 for shutters, EN 13120 for internal blinds, and EN 13561 for external blinds
(including awnings).
This document covers the hazards generated by the drive.
Drives put on the market as machines may be installed by the final user. The requirements of this
standard cover drives and also the foreseeable misuse of the power operated shutters, blinds and
awnings.
Drives placed on the market as partly completed machines should not be installed by the final user. In
case of partly completed machines, reference should be made to the specific procedures of the
Machinery Directive; this document can be used as guidance.
This document does not deal with any specific requirements on noise emitted from drives for shutters,
awnings, blinds and similar equipment as the generated noise is not considered to be a relevant hazard.
With European Amendment A11, EN 60335-2-97:2006+A11:2008+A2:2010+A12:2015 is superseded.
This European Amendment A11, supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of the standards
below:
— EN 60335-1:2012+A11:2014+A13:2017+A1:2019+A14:2019+A2:2019+A15:2021+A16:—
(Part 1)
— EN IEC 60335-2-97:2023+A1:2023 (Part 2)
2 Modification to Clause 1, “Scope”
Add at the end of the second paragraph the following:
It also covers the hazards associated with the movement of the equipment such as shutters, blinds and
awnings
Replace the third and fourth paragraphs starting with “Drives not intended for normal …” up to
“… children playing with the drive “, except the notes 104 and 105 by the following:
This document deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by drives that are encountered
by all persons in and around the installation place. However, in general, it does not take into account:
— children playing with the drive;
— the use of the drive by very young children;
— the use of the drive by young children without supervision.
It is recognized that very vulnerable people can have needs beyond the level addressed in this
document.
Drives being part of power operated shutters, blinds and awnings which are intended to be used by
trained users in shops, in light industry and on farms, are also within the scope of this document.

To be published in 2023. Stage at the time of publication: FprEN 60335-1:2012/A16:2021.
NOTE Z101 Examples of places where shutters, blinds and awnings for household environment can also be used
by non-expert users:
—  shops, offices and other working environments;
—  farm houses;
—  hotels, motels and other residential type environments where they are used by clients;
—  bed and breakfast type environments.
NOTE Z102 Household environment includes the dwelling and its associated buildings, the garden, etc.
Addition:
NOTE Z103 Within this document the terms drive and appliance are interchangeable.
Products covered by this document and installed according to the manufacturer instructions do not
create a noise hazard.
3 Modification to Clause 2, “Normative references”
Addition:
EN 60825-1:2014 , Safety of laser products – Part 1: Equipment classification and requirements
EN 60811-605:2012, Electric and optical fibre cables - Test methods for non-metallic materials - Part
605: Physical tests - Measurement of carbon black and/or mineral filler in polyethylene compounds

5 Modification to Clause 4, “General requirement”
Add at the end of the first paragraph of Part 1:
Drives shall also be constructed in such a way they ensure transportation, installation, adjusting and
maintenance may be carried out safely.
6 Modification to Clause 5, “General conditions for the tests”
5.3 Add at the end of the clause of Part 1:
When a drive incorporates a sub-assembly or a part which has already been tested against relevant
clause(s) of this document, those tests need not be repeated, if the incorporation of the sub-assembly
or part into the drive does not change the performance of the sub-assembly or part.

As impacted by EN 60825-1:2014/AC:2017-06, EN 60825-1:2014/A11:2021, and
EN 60825-1:2014/A11:2021/AC:2022-03.

full address are included in the instructions;
— Model or type reference, serial number, if any, and production year;
NOTE Z101 Production year is the year when the production process is completed. The production year can be
part of the serial number.
Add a new dashed item:
— Designation of the drive. The designation enables the identification of the drive as specified in the
instructions and may be the generic denomination and function of the product (e.g. the terms used
in the title of this document – drive for shutter – may be used) or a combination of letters and/or
numbers.
7.12 Add the following text after the first paragraph in Part 1:

NOTE Z101 The influence to the sound pressure level from the structure, including the driven part, to which
the drive will be connected is not considered.
7.12.1 Addition after Note 101:
For drives intended to be installed by the end-user, the installation instructions shall specify
