Emergency stop and safety hold
Preparation of standards specifying design principles for emergency stop equipment for machinery and built-in safety measures aimed at preventing unexpected machine start-up to allow safe human interventions in danger zones, regardless of the type of energy used.
This standard specifies built-in safety measures aimed at preventing unexpected machine start-up (see 3.2) to
allow safe human interventions in danger zones (see Annex A).
This standard applies to unexpected start-up from all types of energy source, i.e.:
- Power supply, e.g. electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic;
- Stored energy due to, e.g., gravity, compressed springs;
- External influences, e.g. from wind;

Frequently Asked Questions
CEN/TC 114/WG 9 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Emergency stop and safety hold" and is responsible for: Preparation of standards specifying design principles for emergency stop equipment for machinery and built-in safety measures aimed at preventing unexpected machine start-up to allow safe human interventions in danger zones, regardless of the type of energy used. This committee has published 3 standards.
CEN/TC 114/WG 9 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: Preparation of standards specifying design principles for emergency stop equipment for machinery and built-in safety measures aimed at preventing unexpected machine start-up to allow safe human interventions in danger zones, regardless of the type of energy used. Currently, there are 3 published standards from this working group.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
