Hi

 

The Machinery directive has EN 60204 as its main standard for electrical
safety. In the latest version of the directive in Annex 1 §1.5.1 is stated
that “The safety objectives set out in Directive 73/23/EEC shall apply to
machinery”.

 

Does this mean that we shall use EN 60204 and a LVD standard to prove
compliance?

 

I would like to, because EN 60204 is not very specific. Latest I have
discovered that it does not describe how to measure leakage current, no
reference to eg. IEC 60990.

 

Best regards

 

Mr. Kim Boll Jensen
