Part 2-11: Particular requirements for energy regulators

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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment
declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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.
This redline version of the official IEC Standard allows the user to identify the changes
made to the previous edition. A vertical bar appears in the margin wherever a change has
been made. Additions are in green text, deletions are in strikethrough red text.

International Standard IEC 60730-2-11 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 72:
Automatic electrical controls.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2006. This edition
constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes
with respect to the previous edition:
a) revision to the title to remove “for household and similar use”;
b) changes to the scope and related modifications;
c) changes to definitions in Annex H.
The text of this International Standard is based upon the following documents:
CDV Report on voting
72/1137/CDV 72/1167/RVC
Full information on the voting for the approval of this International 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 2-11 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60730-1. It was established on
the basis of the fifth edition of that standard (2013) including Amendment 1 (2015).
Consideration may be given to future editions of, or amendments to, IEC 60730-1.
This Part 2-11 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60730-1 so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Particular requirements for energy regulators.
Where this Part 2-11 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 2-11 indicates that the relevant clause or subclause
applies.
In this publication, the following print types are used:
– requirements proper: in roman type,
– test specifications: in italic type,
– explanatory matter: in smaller roman type,
–  defined terms: bold type.
Subclauses, notes, tables and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered
starting from 101.
A list of all parts of the IEC 60730 series, under the general title Automatic electrical controls,
can be found on the IEC website.
Future standards in this series will carry the new general title as cited above. Titles of existing
standards in this series will be updated at the time of the next edition.

The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the
maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed;
• withdrawn;
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
IMPORTANT – The “colour inside” logo on the cover page of this publication indicates
that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding
of its contents. Users should therefore print this publication using a colour printer.
