However, t w -marking of transformers is optional. This  standard also applies to transformers, power supplies, switch  mode power supplies, and reactors incorporating electronic  circuits. This standard does not apply to external circuits and  their components intended to be connected to the input and  output terminals or socket-outlets of the transformers, power  supplies and switch mode power supplies, and reactors.

application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and
notified to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,

Foreword
The text of document 96/224/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 61558-1, prepared by IEC TC 96, Small
power transformers, reactors, power supply units and similar products, was submitted to the
IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 61558-1 on 2005-10-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 61558-1:1997 + corrigendum April 2003 + A1:1998 +
A11:2003.
The changes with respect to EN 61558-1:1997 were necessitated by the introduction of new
technology and implementation of requirements from equipment committees.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2006-07-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) –
This European Standard replaces EN 61558-1:1997 and its amendments. However, EN 61558-1:1997
remains valid until all the parts 2 that are used in conjunction with it have been withdrawn. No date of
withdrawal of conflicting national standards (dow) has therefore been fixed. However, when Part 1 is
used for products not covered by a part 2, EN 61558-1:1997 is not to be used after 2008-10-01.
This new edition of Part 1 is only to be used in conjunction with parts 2 based on this edition. The
parts 2 contain clauses to supplement or modify the corresponding clauses of this Part 1 in order to
provide the relevant requirements for each type of transformer.
However, individual countries may wish to consider its application, to the extent reasonable, to
transformers not mentioned in the parts 2, and to transformers designed on new principles.
NOTE Annex U contains the optional t system (marking, requirements and tests).
w
In this standard, the following print types are used:
– requirements proper: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– explanatory matter: in smaller roman type.
In the text of the standard, the words in bold are defined in Clause 3.
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
The contents of the corrigendum of August 2006 have been included in this copy.

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
...
