1 Scope
This Standard specifies principles for the design and selection, independent of the nature of the energy source, of interlocking devices associated with guards (as defined in 3.26.1 "interlocking device", 3.25.4 "interlocking guard" and 3.25.5 "interlocking device with guard locking" of GB/T 15706.1-2007).
It also provides requirements specifically intended for electrical interlocking devices (see Chapter 6).
This Standard covers the parts of guards which actuate interlocking devices.
Note: The processing of the signal from the interlocking device to stop and immobilize the machine is dealt with in GB/T 16855.1.

3 Terminologies and Definitions
For the purposes of this Standard, the following terminologies and definitions apply:
3.1
Interlocking device
Interlock
Mechanical, electrical or other type of device, the purpose of which is to prevent the operation of hazardous machine elements under specified conditions (generally as long as a guard is not closed).
[see GB/T 15706.1-2007, 3.26.1]
3.2
Interlocking guard
Guard associated with an interlocking device, used together with machine control system to achieve the following functions:
- the hazardous machine functions "covered" by the guard cannot operate until the guard is closed;
- if the guard is opened while the hazardous machine functions are operating, a stop instruction is given;
- when the guard is closed, the hazardous machine functions "covered" by the guard can operate, but the closure and locking of the guard do not by themselves initiate their operation.
[see GB/T 15706.1-2007, 3.25.4]
3.3
Interlocking guard with guard locking
Guard associated with an interlocking device and a guard locking device, used together with machine control system to achieve the following functions:
- the hazardous machine functions "covered" by the guard cannot operate until the guard is closed and locked;
- the guard remains closed and locked until the risk of injury from the hazardous machine functions "covered" by the guard has passed;
- when the guard is closed and locked, the hazardous machine functions "covered" by the guard can operate, but the closure and locking of the guard do not by themselves initiate their operation.
