Overview
EN 60947-6-2:2003 (CLC adoption of IEC 60947-6-2:2002) is a European standard for multiple‑function low‑voltage equipment known as Control and Protective Switching devices (CPS). It applies to CPS whose main contacts are intended for connection to circuits with rated voltages up to 1 000 V AC or 1 500 V DC. CPS units provide both control and protective functions, are operated otherwise than by hand, and may also provide additional functions such as isolation.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and device classification - definition of CPS devices and functional limits (control + protection, non‑manual operation).
- Rated voltage and contact requirements - main contacts intended for ≤1 000 V AC / ≤1 500 V DC.
- Functional performance - expectations for combined control and protective behavior under normal and fault conditions (drawing on general rules in IEC/EN 60947-1).
- Safety and insulation - thermal evaluation and insulation classifications referenced (IEC 60085).
- Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - immunity and disturbance testing referenced (IEC 61000‑4 series, CISPR/EN 55011).
- Fire and flammability tests - glow‑wire and ignitability methods referenced (IEC 60695‑2‑10…13).
- Quality and inspection - sampling and inspection principles referenced (IEC 60410).
- Normative references and harmonization - links to EN/IEC standards that define test methods, rating, and performance (EN 60947‑1, EN 60947‑6‑1, etc.).
Note: Annexes A, C and ZA in the EN are normative (mandatory), while Annex D is informative.
Applications and who uses the standard
- Manufacturers of switchgear and controlgear that design, build or certify CPS devices (motor starters with integrated protection, combined control/protection modules).
- Panel builders and electrical integrators specifying CPS for low‑voltage distribution, industrial control panels, and automation systems.
- Specifiers, consultants and safety engineers who select equipment for compliance with safety, EMC and fire performance requirements.
- Testing laboratories and certification bodies that perform type testing, EMC and flammability assessments referenced by the standard.
- End users in industrial plants, utilities and building services who require compliant multifunction switching devices for safe control and protection.
