Overview

EN 62841-2-14:2015/prAB:2024 is a CENELEC draft amendment to the European safety standard for electric motor-operated hand-held tools - specifically the particular requirements for hand-held planers (rabots/hobli). Prepared by CLC/TC 116, this prAB (published Feb 2024) updates EN 62841-2-14:2015 and, if approved, will modify the normative text to clarify applicability, revise selected requirements and update annexes related to battery tools and regulatory coverage. This standard links to the Machinery Directive (Directive 2006/42/EC) for conformity assessment.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope: particular safety requirements for hand-held planers within the EN 62841 family of standards for portable electric tools.
  • Amendment highlights:
    • Revision of Table 4 and clarification that subclause 19.6 of EN 62841-1:2015 is applicable to hand-held planers.
    • Revised requirements of subclause 23.3 of EN 62841-1:2015 for these tools.
  • Battery tool requirements (Annex K and Annex L):
    • Tools with an integral battery must have either an isolation device or a disabling device to prevent mechanical hazards or unintentional starting during servicing or user maintenance.
    • Isolation device requirements:
      • Disconnects at least one pole of the battery from the serviceable region.
      • Provides an unambiguous indication of connection/disconnection state corresponding to actuator positions.
      • Includes protection against accidental reconnection.
    • Disabling device options:
      • A lock-off device requiring two separate and dissimilar actions to start the motor (not achievable by a single grasp or straight-line motion).
      • A removable disabling device supplied with the tool that prevents operation while applied or removed.
    • Compliance is verified by inspection and manual testing.
  • Regulatory linkage: Replacement of Annex ZZ maps this standard to essential requirements of Directive 2006/42/EC, providing a presumption of conformity when cited in the Official Journal.

Applications and who uses it

  • Manufacturers and product designers of hand-held planers and portable electric woodworking tools.
  • Safety engineers and compliance teams for CE marking and conformity assessment.
  • Test laboratories and certification bodies conducting inspections and manual tests for battery isolation/disabling features.
  • After-sales service teams and technical documentation authors to define safe maintenance procedures and instructions.
  • Procurement and risk-assessment professionals specifying compliant tools for workshops and construction.

Related standards and bodies

  • EN 62841-1:2015 (general requirements for electric motor-operated hand-held tools)
  • IEC 62841 series (international counterpart)
  • CENELEC / CLC/TC 116 (technical committee responsible)
  • Directive 2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive) - Annex ZZ correspondence included
