It is in
4、agreement with IEC Publication 215 : 1987 together with its amendments 1 (1989) and 2 (1993), except that appendix A of the IEC Publication has been replaced by CENELEC annex u. The amended text in clause 12 is introduced by Amendment 2 and the amended text in clause E7 is introduced by Amendment 1.

36、io transmitting equipment supersedes, and replaces in a single volume, two earlier I EC Publications: 2 15 (1 978) and 284 (i 968). The requirements and test methods in this standard are similar to those given in the second edition of I EC Publication 2 I5 and continue to apply only to radio transmi
37、tting equipment operating under the responsibility of skilled personnel as defined in Sub-clause 3.1. The text of Appendix E is based on the contents of I EC Publication 284, which has now been withdrawn. The titles of I EC publications and publications ofother international bodies referred to in th
38、is standard are given in Appendix A. I. scope This standard applies to radio transmitting equipment, including any auxiliary apparatus neces- sary for its normal operation as defined in I EC Publication 244- i, operating under the responsi- bility of skilled personnel. It applies to all radio transm
39、itting equipment and ancillary apparatus, including combining units and matching networks. Only the antenna system and associated feeder lines are excluded. This standard does not apply to transmitters of safety-insulated construction using double insu- lation or reinforced insulation and without pr
40、ovision for protective earthing. This type of equipment is designated “Class I1 Equipment” in I EC Publication 536 and is usually marked with the symbol shown in Sub-clause C2.2 of Appendix C. 2. Object This standard deals with protection against: - electric shock; - skin bums; - high temperature an
41、d fire; - implosion and explosion; - harmful radiation; - miscellaneous hazards. Design and construction requirements and, where appropriate, test methods are specified covering: u) the safety of skilled personnel when operating, carrying out routine adjustments to, and as far as practicable, during
42、 fault finding and repairing the equipment; 6) the safety of personnel, including unskilled personnel directed by skilled personnel, when the equipment is operating normally, and also when operating under certain specific fault conditions which may anse in normal use; c) the prevention of fire and i
43、ts spread. These requirements do not necessarily ensure the safety of unskilled personnel working on the equipment when it is not in normal operation.

44、king that the equipment meets the safety require- ments of this standard when operating normally and also under the specified fault conditions. The tests should be camed out on a representative set of equipment in order to determine whether the design meets the requirements of this standard. The tes
45、ts are neither mandatory nor limiting and may be modified by agreement between manufacturer and purchaser. The use of this standard is not, however, intended to be restricted to type tests. It may also be used for acceptance tests after installation of the equipment, for tests after modifications to
46、 parts of the equipment, and for tests at appropriate intervals to ensure the continuing safety of the equipment throughout its life.
