Electromechanical elementary relays - Part 1: General and safety requirements
 N EN 61810-1

Annotation

This part of IEC 61810 applies to electromechanical elementary relays (non-specified time allor- nothing relays) for incorporation into low voltage equipment (circuits up to 1 000 V alternate current or 1 500 V direct current). It defines the basic functional and safety requirements and safety-related aspects for applications in all areas of electrical engineering or electronics, such as:

- general industrial equipment,

- electrical facilities,

- electrical machines,

- electrical appliances for household and similar use,

- information technology and business equipment,

- building automation equipment,

- automation equipment,

- electrical installation equipment,

- medical equipment,

- control equipment,

- telecommunications,

- vehicles,

- transportation (e.g. railways).

Compliance with the requirements of this standard is verified by the type tests indicated.

In case the application of a relay determines additional requirements exceeding those specified in this standard, the relay should be assessed in line with this application in accordance with the relevant IEC standard(s) (e.g. IEC 60730-1, IEC 60335-1, IEC 60950-1).
