This Standard specifies procedures for the safety inspection and testing of low voltage single phase and polyphase electrical equipment, connected to the electrical supply by a flexible cord or connecting device. It also include procedures for the safety inspection and testing of: Residual current devices (RCDs) except those within the scope of AS/NZS 3003 and NZS 6115; and Portable inverters that generate or produce low voltage.

This Standard specifies procedures for the safety inspection and testing of low voltage single phase and polyphase electrical equipment, connected to the electrical supply by a flexible cord or connecting device, and that(a) Is new equipment placed into service for the first time;(b) Is already in-service;(c) Has been serviced or repaired;(d) Is returning to service from a second-hand sale; or(e) Is available for hire.This Standard also specifies procedures for the safety inspection and testing of(f) Residual current devices (RCDs) except those within the scope of AS/NZS 3003 andNZS 6115; and(g) Portable inverters that generate or produce low voltage.Typical examples of equipment covered by this Standard are:(h) Portable equipment, hand-held equipment and stationary equipment, designed forconnection to the low voltage supply by a supply cord, an appliance inlet or pins forinsertion into a socket-outlet (see Figure G1);(i) Cord sets, cord extension sets and outlet devices (also known as electrical portableoutlet devices (EPODs), or power boards);(j) Flexible cords connected to fixed equipment in hostile environments;(k) Portable power supplies (includes power adaptor/plug-pack, both of the safety isolatingtransformer and switch-mode type);(l) Battery chargers including those for commercial or industrial use;(m) Portable and transportable heavy duty tools such as high pressure washers and concretegrinders.
