Hi Mike,

The scope of IEC 62841-1 covers the following:

  *   Hand-held tools
  *   Transportable tools
  *   Lawn and garden machinery

I think that is what is intended by the German requirement. If you have a 
portable table saw, it would probably be considered “comparable work 
equipment”. Transportable equipment intended to be moved from job site to job 
site would still be in scope even if the equipment is not hand held.

Best regards,

employer.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [PSES] Construction Site Power Cords, Germany

A German insurance document, DGUV Information 203-006 ( Selection and operation 
of electrical systems and equipment on construction and assembly sites ),  has 
a requirement for either rubber or polyurethane jacketed power cables in its 
section 5.15:
"   Hand-held power tools and comparable work equipment
These must at least correspond to protection class IP 2X and be equipped with a 
mains connection cable of type H07RN-F [rubber] or H07BQ-F [polyurethane].   "

Does anyone know what is meant by "comparable work equipment"?


thanks,
