Overview
EN 60745-2-3:2011/prAA:2012 is a CENELEC draft amendment to the European safety standard for hand-held motor-operated electric tools, specifically addressing grinders, polishers and disk-type sanders. The prAA amendment (Annex ZC) adds mandatory requirements for the measurement of inhalable and respirable dust emitted by concrete grinders and disk-type sanders, supporting regulatory compliance and worker health protection under EU directives.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and status
- Amendment to EN 60745-2-3:2011; prepared by CLC/TC 116 and submitted for enquiry.
- Supports essential requirements of EU Directives for tool safety.
- Dust measurement (Annex ZC - normative)
- Defines measurement methods for inhalable and respirable dust emitted during operation.
- Applies specific test procedures and reporting requirements in addition to IEC/EN Part 1 and Part 2-3.
- Test procedures and operating conditions
- Concrete grinders: tested under load on concrete slabs (400×400 mm up to 600×600 mm; thickness 50 ±5 mm) stored dry for ≥3 weeks; slabs arranged on an A-support inclined at 15°.
- Material collected in dust extraction unit: minimum 1 200 g per test.
- Feed force adjusted to attain average power consumption of 70–90% of rated input.
- Disk-type sanders (processing quartz-containing materials, e.g., plaster fibreboard ~12.5 mm thick):
- Sheets placed on 15° A-support; sanding paper P80; maximum speed.
- Collected material minimums: 1 000 g for sanders ≤150 mm; 1 500 g for sanders >150 mm.
- Feed force to achieve 70–90% of rated power.
- Concrete grinders: tested under load on concrete slabs (400×400 mm up to 600×600 mm; thickness 50 ±5 mm) stored dry for ≥3 weeks; slabs arranged on an A-support inclined at 15°.
- Test report and instructions
- Test reports must include mean values for respirable dust concentration for tools tested under Annex ZC conditions.
- Normative references
- EN 1339 (concrete paving flags) is referenced for slab specifications.
- Annex clauses are prefixed “Z”; additions expand on IEC/EN baseline requirements.
Applications and who uses it
- Manufacturers of grinders, polishers and disk-type sanders - to design safer products and validate dust-control features (extraction, guards).
- Test laboratories and conformity assessors - to perform standardized dust-emission tests and produce compliant test reports.
- Health & safety professionals and compliance officers - to assess exposure risks and specify appropriate PPE, extraction, and work practices.
- Regulators and certification bodies - to enforce product safety and occupational exposure requirements.
Related standards
- IEC 60745-2-3 / EN 60745-2-3 (Part 2-3 baseline)
- EN 60745-1 (general requirements / Part 1 - referenced for common clauses)
