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, household and similar equipment. This standard is also applicable to door locks for appliances within the scope of IEC 60335-1. Throughout this standard, the word “equipment” means “appliance” and “equipment”. Throughout this standard, the word “door” means “door, cover or lid”. The words “door lock” mean “electrically operated door lock”. This standard does not apply to door locks designed exclusively for industrial applications. 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. 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. See also Annex J. This standard applies to door locks with electrical circuits and control circuits which are, for example, operated by bimetals, magnet coils, memory metals, pressure elements, temperature-sensitive expansion elements or electronic elements. This standard also applies to manual controls when such are electrically and/or mechanically integral with door locks. Requirements for manual switches not forming part of a door lock are contained in IEC 61058-1. This standard does not take into account the response value of an automatic action of a door lock, if such a response value is dependent upon the method of mounting the door lock in the equipment. Where a response value is of significant purpose for the protection of the user, or surroundings, the value defined in the appropriate household equipment standard or as determined by manufacturer shall apply. This standard also applies to door locks incorporating electronic devices, requirements for which are contained in Annex H. This standard also applies to door locks using NTC and PTC thermistors, requirements for which are contained in Annex J.
