Foreword
The text of the International Standard IEC 60670-21:2004, prepared by SC 23B, Plugs,
socket-outlets and switches, of IEC TC 23, Electrical accessories, together with the common
modifications prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 23B, Switches for household
and similar fixed electrical installations, was submitted to the formal vote and was approved by
CENELEC as EN 60670-21 on 2007-03-01.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2008-03-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2010-03-01
This European Standard shall be used in conjunction with EN 60670-1:2005. It lists the changes
necessary to convert that standard into a specific standard for boxes and enclosures with
provision for suspension means.
When a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this part, that sublcause applies as far
as reasonable.
In this document, the following print types are used:
– requirements proper: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– notes: in smaller roman type.
Subclauses, figures, tables or notes which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered
starting from 101, table footnotes additional to those in Part 1 are lettered aa, bb, etc.
Subclauses, figures, tables or notes which are additional to those in IEC 60670-21:2004 are
