·Convert CENELEC's unconverted IEC61029-2-10 and IEC61029-2-11 into DIN IEC61029-2-10 and DIN IEC61029-2-11.

·Electromagnetic compatibility standards retain VDE0875 Part14, VDE0875 Part14-2, and DIN VDE0838 Part2: 1996.

·In 1992, the DIN45635-21 series of standards for measuring air noise emitted by power tools were formulated. There are 8 standards in total, including small categories such as reciprocating saws, electric circular saws, electric planers, impact drills, impact wrenches, electric hammers, and top molds. Product noise measurement methods.

·Since 1975, standards for connection elements of power tools and standards for work tools have been formulated.

DIN42995 Flexible shaft - drive shaft, connection dimensions

DIN44704 power tool handle

DIN44706 Angle grinder, spindle connection and protective cover connection dimensions

Export British power tool standards

British national standards are developed by the British Royal Chartered British Standards Institution (BSI). The standards independently formulated, adopted or retained include:

In addition to directly adopting the two series of standards BS EN60745 and BS BN50144 formulated by EN60745 and EN50144, the safety series standards for hand-held power tools retain the self-developed BS2769 series of standards and add a "Second Safety Standard for Hand-held Power Tools" Part: Special Requirements for Profile Milling", this series of standards is equally valid as BS EN60745 and BS EN50144.

Other detection tests

The rated voltage and frequency of exported power tool products must adapt to the voltage level and frequency of the low-voltage distribution network of the importing country. The voltage level of the low-voltage distribution system in the European region. Electrical equipment for household and similar purposes is powered by an AC 400V/230V system. , the frequency is 50HZ; North America has an AC 190V/110V system, the frequency is 60HZ; Japan has AC 170V/100V, the frequency is 50HZ.

Rated voltage and rated frequency For various power tool products driven by single-phase series motors, changes in the input rated voltage value will cause changes in the motor speed and thus tool performance parameters; for those driven by three-phase or single-phase asynchronous motors For various power tool products, changes in the rated frequency of the power supply will cause changes in the tool performance parameters.

The unbalanced mass of the rotating body of a power tool produces vibration and noise during operation. From a safety perspective, noise and vibration are a hazard to human health and safety and should be limited. These test methods determine the level of vibration produced by power tools such as drills and impact wrenches. Vibration levels outside required tolerances indicate product malfunction and may pose a hazard to consumers.

ISO/TS 21108—This international standard applies to dimensions and tolerances of socket interfaces for hand-held power tools
