IEC EN 61243-6 Voltage Detectors - Test for Non-Contact Voltage Detectors

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 61243-6 testing. This standard applies only to devices not intended for use in contact with the bare part of the installation on which the presence or absence of operating voltage must be tested.

IEC EN 61243-6 Voltage Detectors - Test for Non-Contact Voltage Detectors

This standard describes only devices and their behavior using the principles of electric field and voltage gradient sensing, although other principles may be used. It provides performance guidelines, usage recommendations, and recommended minimum criteria for selection.

Unless otherwise stated, all voltages defined in this standard refer to phase-to-phase voltages of three-phase systems. In other systems, valid phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth (earth) voltages are used to determine the operating voltage.

In HV and UHV, the large distances between the user and the bare parts to be tested make handling a very long insulating element or insulating bar an ergonomic and safety concern. In such cases, it may be appropriate to avoid any contact with the bare part to be tested and to perform remote voltage detection.

This standard provides considerations and performance guidelines for portable "non-contact" voltage detectors and can be used as a reference for the development of national, industry or manufacturer standards or by users for the development of a product selection.
