GB/T 3883.1-2014 Safety of motor-operated hand-held, transportable electric tools and lawn and garden tools—Part 1:General requirements (English Version)
1 Scope
This Part of GB 3833 deals with the safety of electric motor-operated or magnetically driven:
– hand-held tools (Part 2);
– transportable tools (Part 3);
– lawn and garden machinery (Part 4).
The above listed categories are hereinafter referred to as “tools” or “machines”.
The rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase a.c. or d.c. tools, and 440 V for three-phase a.c. tools. The rated input is not more than 3700 W.
This standard deals with the hazards presented by tools which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the tools.
Tools with electric heating elements are within the scope of this Part. The requirements for these heating elements are specified in the relevant part of GB 4706.
Requirements for motors not isolated from the supply, and having basic insulation not designed for the rated voltage of the tools, are given in Annex B. Requirements for rechargeable battery-powered motor-operated or magnetically driven tools and the battery packs for such tools are given in Annex K. Requirements for such tools that are also operated and/or charged directly from the mains or a non-isolated source are given in Annex L.
Hand-held electric tools, which can be mounted on a support or working stand for use as fixed tools without any alteration of the tool itself, are within the scope of this Part and thus covered by the relevant Part 3.
This Part does not apply to:
– tools intended to be used in the presence of explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas);
– tools used for preparing and processing food;
– tools for medical purposes;
Note 1: GB 9706 series, GB 10793 and GB 11243 covers a variety of tools for medical purposes.
– tools intended to be used with cosmetics or pharmaceutical products;
– heating tools;
Note 2: GB 4706.41 covers a variety of heating tools.
– electric motor-operated household and similar electrical appliances;
Note 3: GB 4706 series covers a variety of electric motor-operated household and similar electrical appliances.
– electrical equipment for industrial machine-tools;
Note 4: GB 5226 series deals with electrical safety of machinery.
– small low voltage transformer operated bench tools intended for model making, e.g. the making of radio controlled model aircraft or cars, etc.
Note 5: Special attentions shall be paid to the additional requirements based on the regulations of local government or special working condition.
