Details those performance and other safety features of caplights for use in mines susceptible to firedamp that are not covered in AS/NZS 62013.1 but which are nevertheless important for the safety and working conditions of the user. It may be applied for use in mines not likely to be endangered by firedamp. This Standard is identical to and has been reproduced from IEC 62013-2:2001.

This part of IEC 62013 details those performance and other safety features not covered in IEC 62013-1, but which are nevertheless important for the safety and working conditions of the user. It may also be applied to caplights for use in mines not likely to be endangered by firedamp. When this part of the standard is used as a "stand-alone" document for non-gassy mines, any relevent constructional requirements should be the subject of agreement between the supplier and the user and, where possible, be as described in IEC 62013-1.
