scope:

This part of IEC 61558 deals with the safety of constant voltage transformers for general applications and power supply units for constant voltage for general applications. Constant voltage transformers incorporating electronic circuits are also covered by this document. NOTE 1 - Safety includes electrical, thermal and mechanical aspects. Unless otherwise specified, from here onward, the term transformer covers constant voltage transformers for general applications and power supply units for constant voltage for general applications. This document is applicable to stationary or portable single-phase or polyphase, air-cooled (natural or forced) independent or associated dry-type: − constant voltage auto-transformers; − constant voltage separating transformers; − constant voltage isolating transformers; − constant voltage safety isolating transformers
