For tools intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, as in ships and vehicles, and in hazardous locations, for example, where explosions are liable to occur, requirements additional to those specified in the standard may be necessary This standard calls for test procedures that may be injurious to safety or health if adequate precautions are not taken when conducting tests Product certification Attention is drawn to the fact that products conforming to this British Standard may be approved by BSI Product Certification, and that such certification may be used for the purposes of participation in the CENELEC Certification Agreement (Details of the BSI certification mark are given on the inside back cover.)

text of the draft was submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure (UAP) in April 1994 and was approved by CENELEC as EN 50144-2-11 on 1995-03-06 The following dates were fixed: ± ± latest date by which the EN has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement (dop) 1997-01-01 latest date by which the national standards conflicting with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 1997-06-01 As far as certification is concerned, CENELEC Memorandum applies This standard is divided into two parts Part 1: General Requirements, comprising clauses of a general character Part 2: Particular Requirements, dealing with particular types of appliances The clauses of these particular requirements supplement or modify the corresponding clauses in Part Where the text of Part indicates an `addition' to or a `replacement' of the relevant requirement, test specification or explanation of Part 1, these changes are made to the relevant text of Part 1, which then becomes part of the standard Where no change is necessary, the words `This clause of Part is applicable' are used in Part NOTE In this standard the following print types are used: ±
