    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Applies to portable devices consisting of a plug, a residual current device (RCD) and one or more socket-outlets or a provision for connection. They do not incorporate overcurrent protection. They are intended for single-phase circuits for rated currents not exceeding 16 A for rated voltages not exceeding 250 V a.c., or for rated current not exceeding 32 A for rated voltages not exceeding 130 V a.c. to earth. This consolidated version consists of the first edition (1997) and its amendment 1 (1998). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.
