scope:

This International Standard is intended to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of devices providing residual current protection, for rated voltages not exceeding 440 V a.c., intended principally for protection of persons against shock hazards.

This standard applies for environmental conditions which occur in installations connected to low-voltage public networks or similar. It may also provide guidance for ensuring EMC for other products intended for safety purposes or for products including electronic circuits and for which a high level of continuity of service is required.

For EMC test requirements not included in the product standards reference should be made to this product family standard.
