This amendment A11 modifies the European Standard EN 61543:1995; it was approved by CENELEC on
2003-06-01. 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, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

1 Introduction
Add, after the last paragraph, the following new paragraph:

The EMC characteristics of a product are generally influenced by the design and not by the
manufacturing process, therefore the tests of this standard are to be made for design
verification and will be repeated only in the case of modifications influencing the EMC
behaviour.
Add the following title to Table 1:

Table 1 – Standard low-frequency environmental conditions
2)
Add table footnote to the reference T 1.2: Signalling voltages in the second column as
follows:
2) Superimposed mains signalling voltages are not allowed in common mode, except under specific
conditions as indicated in IEC 60364-4-44.

Add the following title to Table 2:

Table 2 – Standard high-frequency environmental conditions

Add the following title to Table 3:
Table 3 – Standard electrostatic environmental conditions

5.1.3 Add after the first sentence:
After each tripping the RCD shall be reclosed.

Replace the existing Table 4 by the following new table (modifications are underlined):
