Annotation of standard text IEC 60335-2-26-ed.5.0 :
IEC 60335-2-26:2024 deals with the safety of electric clocks having a rated voltage not more than 250 V including direct current (DC) supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances. Examples of appliances that are within the scope of this standard are – alarm clocks; – spring-driven clocks with an electrically operated winding mechanism; – clocks incorporating driving means other than motors. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. Attention is drawn to the fact that – for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary; – in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities. This standard does not apply to – appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes; – appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas); – clocks having other functions, whether or not in combination with time indication, such as master control clocks and timers for cooking ranges, washing machines and similar appliances; – clocks for "clocking-in" purposes; – clocks incorporating electronic circuits only (IEC 60065, IEC 62368-1); – watches. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 2002 and Amendment 1: 2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) alignment with IEC 60335-1:2020; b) conversion of some notes to normative text (Clause 1); c) application of test probe 19 (8.1.1, 20.2, B.22.3, B.22.4); d) introduction of limits on the temperature rise of external accessible surfaces (Clause 11). This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments unless that edition precludes it; in that case, the latest edition that does not preclude it is used. It was established on the basis of the sixth edition (2020) of that standard. LIEC 60335-2-26:2024 traite de la securite des horloges electriques dont la tension assignee est inferieure ou egale a 250 V, y compris les appareils alimentes en courant continu et les appareils alimentes par batteries. La liste suivante repertorie les exemples dappareils qui relevent du domaine dapplication de la presente norme: – les reveils; – les horloges a entrainement par ressort qui comportent un mecanisme de remontage electrique; – les horloges qui comprennent des moyens dentrainement autres que des moteurs. Dans la mesure du possible, la presente norme traite des dangers courants presentes par les appareils, encourus par toutes les personnes a linterieur et autour de lhabitation. Cependant, elle ne tient en general pas compte – des personnes (y compris des enfants) dont les capacites physiques, sensorielles ou mentales; ou le manque dexperience et de connaissance les empechent dutiliser lappareil en toute securite sans surveillance ou instruction; – de l’utilisation de l’appareil comme jouet par des enfants. Lattention est attiree sur le fait que – pour les appareils destines a etre utilises dans des vehicules ou a bord de navires ou davions, des exigences supplementaires peuvent etre necessaires; – dans de nombreux pays, des exigences supplementaires sont specifiees par les organismes nationaux de la sante, par les organismes nationaux responsables de la protection des travailleurs et par des organismes similaires. La presente norme ne sapplique pas – aux appareils prevus exclusivement pour des usages industriels; – aux appareils destines a etre utilises dans des locaux qui presentent des conditions particulieres, telles que la presence dune atmosphere corrosive ou explosive (poussiere, vapeur ou gaz); – aux horloges qui disposent dautres fonctions, associees au non a lindication de lheure, telles que les horloges-meres et les minuteries de cuisinieres, de machines a laver et dappareils analogues; – aux horloges pointeuses; – aux horloges qui ne comportent que des circuits electroniques (IEC 60065, IEC 62368-1); – aux montres. Cette cinquieme edition annule et remplace la quatrieme edition parue en 2002 et lAmendement 1:2008. Cette edition constitue une revision technique. Cette edition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport a ledition precedente: a) alignement sur lIEC 60335-1:2020; b) conversion de certaines notes en texte normatif (Article 1); c) application du calibre dessai 19 (8.1.1, 20.2, B.22.3, B.22.4); d) instauration de limites dechauffement pour les surfaces accessibles exterieures (Article 11). La presente partie 2 doit etre utilisee conjointement avec la derniere edition de lIEC 60335-1 et ses amendements sauf si cette edition lexclut. Dans ce cas, la derniere edition qui nexclut pas la presente partie 2 est utilisee. Elle a ete etablie sur la base de la sixieme edition (2020) de cette norme.
