§77 EN 60335シリーズの規格の対象となる製品をLVD又は機械指令（MD）に振り分けるために適用される基準

The criteria have been prepared by CLC/TC 61 based on the discussions with the group of experts set up by the EU Commission to manage the application of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC (MD).

The following assumptions have been agreed:

Both MD and LVD are primarily product related and not risk related; even the annexes 1 of both directives detail all risks related to the products covered by each directives;

both LVD and MD are total safety directives covering all types of risks; as a consequence CENELEC standards deal with total safety of electrotechnical products (and not with “electrotechnical safety” of products only);

household appliances intended for domestic use, in the sense of first dashed item in Art 1 k) of 2006/42/EC are:

appliances to be used in the home environment and appliances intended to be used by laymen in similar applications, such as: shops, offices and other working environments; in farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environment, in bed and breakfast type environments;

appliances without moving parts are NOT considered as machines (according to first dashed item of Article 2 (a) of 2006/42/EC);

NOTE Moving parts are those powered by a drive system using one or more sources of energy such as thermal, electric, pneumatic, hydraulic or mechanical energy, independently of the size of the drive system or of the moving part or on the protection to the accessibility to the moving part. Moving parts are also those for which manual effort is not applied directly but stored, for example, in springs or in hydraulic or pneumatic accumulators.

it was acknowledged that it is possible to publish a given standard under both directives (LVD and MD) provided that the standard clearly states in its body, a reference to the Directives that were considered in its drafting and there is a clear indication of the applicable Directive through what is stated in Annex ZZ and in a specific Annex ZE with specific requirements applicable to a given Directive;

while there is absolutely no reason for safety issues, in conclusion and far from simplification, a wrong interpretation of the borderline would trigger a lot of confusion in the relationship between legislation and standards and also in their application;

there is a need to ensure consistent and coordinated answers to the needs of

Standards users and to have clear and coordinated positions at Commission and Market Surveillance Authorities level;

efforts have to be made to be as much as possible in line with the work already done at international level within IEC, in order to avoid contradiction and undue deviations from world-wide recognized safety standards and worldwide recognition of certificates issued under the IECEE CB Scheme (the so called “one stop shopping”);

LVD - guidelines and the guide to application of Directive 2006/42/EC on machinery have been considered when drafting this list.

The following table shows the list of standards under CLC/TC 61 with the consequent allocation of standards under LVD or MD. Some standards support both LVD and MD because they cover a range of products of which some come under the LVD and others under the MD.

Note: The development of new CENELEC standards can mean that the list attached may become outdated. The latest status of a standard whether it is under LVD or MD is provided in Annex ZF of the latest edition of EN 60335-1.
