AUTOMATIC ELECTRICAL CONTROLS –

Part 2-12: Particular requirements for

electrically operated door locks

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

International Standard IEC 60730-2-12 has been prepared by technical committee 72:
Automatic electrical controls.

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2005. This edition
constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes
with respect to the previous edition:

a) aligns the text with IEC 60730-1, Edition 5;

b) modifies requirements for Class B control function (H.27.1.2.2);
c) modifies requirements for Class C control function (H.27.1.2.3);
d) modifies requirements for faults during safety shut-down.

The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

FDIS Report on voting

72/981/FDIS 72/993/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.

This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

This part 2 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60730-1. It was established on the
basis of the fifth edition (2013) of that publication. Consideration may be given to future
editions of, or amendments to, IEC 60730-1.

This part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60730-1 so as to convert
that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for electrically operated door
locks.

Where this part 2 states "addition", "modification", or "replacement", the relevant requirement,
test specification or explanatory matter in part 1 should be adapted accordingly.

Where no change is necessary, this part 2 indicates that the relevant clause or subclause
applies.

In the development of a fully international standard, it has been necessary to take into
consideration the differing requirements resulting from practical experience in various parts of
the world and to recognize the variation in national electrical systems and wiring rules.

The “in some countries” notes regarding differing national practices are contained in the
following subclauses:

17.1.3.1

17.7.1

17.7.7

17.10.4

27.2.3.1

In this publication:

1) The following print types are used:

– Requirements proper: in roman type;
– Test specifications: in italic type;
– Notes; in small roman type;

– Words defined in Clause 2: bold.

2) Subclauses, notes, tables and figures which are additional to those in part 1 are numbered
starting from 101; additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.

A list of all parts of the IEC 60730 series, published under the title Automatic electrical controls
can be found on the IEC website.

1.1 Scope

Replacement:

This part of IEC 60730 applies to electrically operated door locks for use in, on or in
association with equipment, including equipment for heating, air-conditioning and similar
applications. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc.,
or a combination thereof.

NOTE 1 Throughout this standard, the word "equipment" includes "appliance" and "control system".

This standard also applies to electrically operated door locks for equipment that may be
used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used in shops, offices, hospitals, farms
and commercial and industrial applications.

This standard does not apply to electrically operated door locks intended exclusively for
industrial process applications unless explicitly mentioned in the equipment standard.

This standard does not apply to electrically operated door locks intended for security access
applications.

NOTE 2 Standards that cover these applications are under IEC Technical Committee 79.

1.1.1 Replacement:

This standard applies to the inherent safety, to the operating values, operating sequences
where such are associated with equipment protection, and to the testing of door locks used in,
or in association with equipment.

This standard is also applicable to door locks for appliances within the scope of IEC 60335-1.

NOTE Throughout this standard, the word “door” means “door, cover or lid”. The words “door lock” mean
“electrically operated door lock”.

This standard is also applicable to individual door locks utilized as part of a control system or
door locks which are mechanically integral with multi-functional controls having non-electrical
outputs or employing motors.

Door locks for equipment not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless may
be used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light
industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.

This standard is also applicable to the functional safety of low complexity safety related
systems and controls employing door locks as the actuating element.
