Applies to control and protective switching devices (or equipment) (CPS), the main contacts of which are intended to be connected to circuits of rated voltage not exceeding 1000 volt a.c or 1500 volt d.c. CPS are intended to provide both protective and control functions for remotely controlled circuits. They may also fulfil additional functions such as isolation. This Standard is identical with and has been reproduced from IEC 60947-6-2:1992 plus Amendment 1:1997 plus Amendment 2:1998.

This section of IEC 60947-6 applies to control and protective switching devices (or equipment) (CPS), the main contacts of which are intended to be connected to circuits of rated voltage not exceeding 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V d.c.CPSs are intended to provide both protective and control functions for circuits and are operated otherwise than by hand. They may also fulfill additional functions, such as isolation.The object of this section is to state: The characteristics of CPSs; The conditions with which CPSs shall comply with reference to their operation and behaviour, their dielectric properties, the degree of protection provided by their enclosure where applicable; The tests intended to verify that these conditions have been met, and the methods to be adopted for these tests; The information to be marked on or given with the CPSs.
