IEC 62841-2-2 Testing

Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery – Safety – Part 2-2: hand-held screwdrivers and impact wrenches

IEC 62841-2-2 Abstract:

IEC 62841 2 2 and EN 62841 2 2 testing deal with the safety of electric motor-operated or magnetically driven hand-held screwdrivers and impact wrenches. The rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase A.C. or D.C. tools, and 480 V for three-phase A.C. tools. The rated input is not more than 3 700 W.

IEC 62841-2-2 compliance testing deals with the hazards presented by tools which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the tools. Hand-held electric tools, which can be mounted on a support or working stand for use as fixed tools without any alteration of the tool itself, are within the scope of this standard and such combination of a hand-held tool and a support is considered to be a transportable tool and thus covered.
