    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes the electrical requirements for the design and manufacture of self-propelled industrial trucks including masted and variable reach rough terrain trucks and tow tractors with a rated drawbar pull up to and including 20000 N.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This International Standard specifies the electrical requirements for the design and manufacture of self-propelled industrial trucks including masted and variable reach rough terrain trucks (see ISO5053:1987, 3.1.3.1.8), and tow tractors with a rated drawbar pull up to and including 20000N. This International Standard applies to trucks with battery voltages in accordance with ISO1044. For additional requirements of trucks with mains power, see IEC60204-1.

    This International Standard does not apply to

    • trucks used in potentially explosive atmospheres, or

    • issues related to electromagnetic compatibility.

    This International Standard does not repeat all the technical rules which are state of the art and which are applicable to the material used to construct the industrial truck, for which reference can be made to ISO12100-2.
