    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    IEC 62606:2013 applies to arc fault detection devices (AFDD) for household and similar uses in a.c. circuits. An AFDD is designed by the manufacturer:
    - either as a single device having opening means able to open the protected circuit in specified conditions; or
    - as a single device integrating a protective device; or
    - as a separate unit, according to Annex D assembled on site with a declared protective device. The contents of the corrigendum of November 2013 have been included in this copy.
