This International Standard deals with the safety of electric drives for garage doors for residential use that open and close in a vertical direction, the rated voltage of the drives being not more than 250 volt for single-phase appliances and 480 volt for other appliances. It also covers the hazards associated with the movement of these electrically driven garage doors. This Standard also applies to entrapment protection devices for use with drives. It does not cover hazards related to the mechanisms of the door itself.
