IEC 62640 Consolidated version
IEC 62640:2011+AMD1:2015 CSV
Residual current devices with or without overcurrent protection forsocket-outlets for household and similar uses
IEC 62640:2011+A1:2015 applies to residual current-operated devices (RCD) incorporated in, or specifically intended for use with two pole socket-outlets, with or without earthing contact for household and similar uses (SRCD: socket-outlet residual current devices). SRCDs, according to this standard, are intended to be used in single phase systems such as phase to neutral or phase to phase or phase to earthed middle conductor. SRCDs are only intended to provide additional protection downstream of the SRCD. SRCDs are intended for use in circuits where the fault protection (indirect contact protection) is already assured upstream of the SRCD. This consolidated version consists of the first edition (2011) and its amendment 1 (2015). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.
