Overview
EN 61243-2:1997/A1:2000 (CLC) is the European adoption/amendment of IEC 61243-2 and specifies requirements for resistive (ohmic) voltage detectors intended for live working on a.c. systems from 1 kV to 36 kV. The amendment (A1:2000) updates test methods and mechanical requirements to ensure reliable indication and mechanical robustness of voltage detectors used by personnel working on or near live high-voltage equipment.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and type
- Applies to resistive-type voltage detectors for a.c. voltages between 1 kV and 36 kV used in live working.
- Magnetic interference test
- Requires a defined test setup using a straight conductor (25 mm ± 5 mm diameter, 2 m length with no magnetic material within 1 m).
- An a.c. current source produces 1 000 A in the conductor while the detector is positioned 50 mm from the conductor surface and aligned with its centre.
- The detector’s “voltage present” indication is measured before and during the 1 000 A field; the second measurement must not deviate by more than 5%.
- Tests are repeated with the detector rotated 90° and with current and voltage sources in phase and 120° out of phase.
- Earth lead robustness
- Detailed mechanical test setup: detector fastened to oscillate about a centre 20 mm above the earth lead emergence; emergence angle ~50°.
- Dynamic tests: a 10 N load applied 200 mm below emergence; 10 000 oscillations through ±45° with a period of 0.5–1.0 s in vertical and horizontal planes.
- Static tests: load increased to 200 N for 1 minute with the lead vertical; clip/clamp must remain attached when a 200 N load is applied.
- Pass criteria: no visible damage and clip/clamp integrity.
- Editorial changes
- Certain subclauses (e.g., other mechanical tests on earth lead) were removed or revised in the amendment.
Applications and Users
- Practical use: ensures safe, reliable voltage detection for live-line operations and maintenance on overhead lines, substations and high-voltage equipment.
- Primary users:
- Utility and transmission line live-working teams
- Electrical safety officers and inspectors
- Manufacturers of voltage detectors and PPE
- Test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies
- Standards committees and procurement teams specifying safety equipment
Related Standards
- This document is an amendment to EN 61243-2 and is aligned with IEC 61243-2 (1995/A1:1999). Users should consider other parts of the IEC/EN 61243 series and relevant live working and electrical safety standards when specifying or testing voltage detectors.
