BS EN 61316:2000

National foreword
This British Standard is the official English language version of EN 61316:1999. It is
identical with IEC 61316:1999.

The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technical Committee
PEL/23/4, Protected type plugs and sockets, which has the responsibility to:
Ð aid enquirers to understand the text;
Ð present to the responsible international/European committee any enquiries
on the interpretation, or proposals for change, and keep the UK interests
informed;
Ð monitor related international and European developments and promulgate
them in the UK.
A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained on request to
its secretary.
From 1 January 1997, all IEC publications have the number 60000 added to the old
number. For instance, IEC 27-1 has been renumbered as IEC 60027-1. For a period
of time during the change over from one numbering system to the other,
publications may contain identifiers from both systems.
Cross-references
Attention is drawn to the fact that CEN and CENELEC Standards normally include
an annex which lists normative references to international publications with their
corresponding European publications. The British Standards which implement these
international or European publications may be found in the BSI Standards
Catalogue under the section entitled ªInternational Standards Correspondence
Indexº, or by using the ªFindº facility of the BSI Standards Electronic Catalogue.
A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.

Summary of pages
This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, the EN title page,
pages 2 to 28, an inside back cover and a back cover.
The BSI copyright notice displayed in this document indicates when the document

was last issued.

This British Standard, having
been prepared under the
direction of the Electrotechnical
Sector Committee, was published

Standards Committee and comes
into effect on 15 April 2000
