IEC EN 60898-2 is a technical standard developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that specifies requirements for circuit breakers for overcurrent protection in household and similar electrical installations.

Part 2 of the standard, "Circuit breakers for AC and DC operation", provides specific requirements for circuit breakers that can operate in both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) electrical systems. These circuit breakers are used to protect electrical circuits from overcurrent conditions that can cause damage or fire.

The standard covers a number of technical requirements for circuit breakers, including their construction, performance and testing. It specifies the requirements for the maximum rated voltage, rated frequency and rated current for different types of circuit breakers. It also covers labeling and marking requirements as well as issues such as coordination with other protective devices in the circuit.

The IEC EN 60898-2 standard is important to ensure the safety and reliability of electrical installations in homes and similar environments. Compliance with the standard helps to ensure that circuit breakers operate properly under overcurrent conditions, protecting both people and property from harm.
