    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Defines the requirements and testing for PPE footwear used as electrical insulating footwear and overboots that provide protection of the worker against electric shock and used for working live or close to live parts on installations up to 36000 V AC or 25000 V DC.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies the requirements and testing for PPE footwear used as electrical insulating footwear and overboots that provide protection of the worker against electric shock and used for working live or close to live parts on installations up to 36 000 V AC or 25 000 V DC.

    The products designed and manufactured according to this standard contribute to the safety of the users provided they are used by skilled persons, in accordance with safe methods of work and the instructions for use.

    Antistatic, electrical shock resistant and conductive footwear are not covered by this standard.

    NOTE Part 2 Electrical Shock Resistant Footwear and Part 3 Conductive Footwear for Live Working are in development.
