BS EN 60204-32:2008 applies to the application of electrical and electronic equipment and
systems to hoisting machines and related equipment.NOTE 1 In BS EN 60204-32:2008, the term "electrical" includes both electrical and electronic matters (i.e., "electrical
equipment" means both the electrical and the electronic equipment).NOTE 2 In the context of BS EN 60204-32:2008, the term "person" refers to any individual and includes those persons who
are assigned and instructed by the user or user?s agent(s) in the use and care of the hoisting machine in question.The equipment covered by BS EN 60204-32:2008 commences at the point of connection of the supply to
the electrical equipment of the hoisting machine (crane-supply-switch) including systems for
power supply and control feeders situated outside of the hoisting machine, for example, flexible
cables or conductor wires or conductor bars (see Figure 3).NOTE 3 For the requirements for the electrical supply installation in buildings, see IEC 60364.BS EN 60204-32:2008 is applicable to equipment or parts of equipment not exceeding 1 000 V a.c. or
1 500 V d.c. between lines and with nominal frequencies not exceeding 200 Hz.NOTE 4 For higher voltages, see IEC 60204-11.Additional and special requirements can apply to the electrical equipment of hoisting machines
including those that- are intended for use in open air (i.e., outside buildings or other protective structures);- handle or transport potentially explosive material (for example, paint or sawdust);- are intended for use in potentially explosive and/or flammable atmospheres;- are intended for use in mines.For the purposes of BS EN 60204-32:2008, hoisting machines include cranes of all types, winches of all
types, and storage and retrieval machines. The following product groups are included:- overhead travelling cranes;- mobile cranes;- tower cranes;- slewing luffing cranes;- gantry cranes;- offshore cranes;- floating cranes;- winches of all types;- hoists and accessories;- loader cranes;- cable cranes;- load holding devices;- storage and retrieval machines;- monorail hoists;- straddle carriers;- rubber tyred gantry cranes (RTGs).BS EN 60204-32:2008 does not cover individual items of electrical equipment other than their selection
for use and their erection.Cross References:IEC 60034-1IEC 60034-5IEC 60034-11IEC 60068-2-27:1987IEC 60068-2-32:1975IEC 60068-2-32:1975/AMD 2:1990IEC 60072-1IEC 60072-2IEC 60073IEC 60309-1IEC 60332IEC 60364-1IEC 60364-4-41:2005IEC 60364-4-42:2001IEC 60364-4-43 2001IEC 60364-5-52 2001IEC 60364-5-53:2001IEC 60364-5-53:2001/AMD 1:2002IEC 60364-5-54:2002IEC 60364-6:2006IEC 60417-DBIEC 60439-1:1999IEC 60439-1:1999/AMD 1:2004IEC 60445IEC 60446:1999IEC 60447IEC 60529:1989IEC 60529:1989/AMD 1:1999IEC 60664-1:2007IEC 60898IEC 60947-1:2007IEC 60947-2:2006IEC 60947-3IEC 60947-4-1:2000IEC 60947-4-1:2000/AMD 1:2002IEC 60947-5-1:2003IEC 61082-1:2006IEC 61140IEC 61180-2:1994IEC 61310IEC 61346IEC 61557-3IEC 61558-1IEC 61558-2-6IEC 61800-5-2:2007IEC 61984IEC 62023IEC 62027IEC 62061IEC 62079ISO 7000:2004ISO 12100-1ISO 12100-2:2003ISO 13849-1:2006ISO 13849-2:2003ISO 13850:2006ISO 13851:2002ISO 13852:1996EN 60034-1:2004EN 60034-5:2001EN 60034-11:2004EN 60068-2-27:1993EN 60068-2-32:1993EN 60073:2002EN 60309-1:1999EN 60309-1:1999/A11:2004EN 60332CENELEC HD 60364-1:2008CENELEC HD 60364-4-41:2007CENELEC HD 60364-4-41:2007/Corrigendum:2007CENELEC HD 60364-5-534:2008CENELEC HD 60364-5-54:2007CENELEC HD 60364-6:2007EN 60439-1:1999EN 60439-1:1999/A1:2004EN 60445:2007EN 60446:1999EN 60447:2004EN 60529:1991EN 60529:1991/Corrigendum:1993EN 60529:1991/A1:2000EN 60664-1:2007EN 60898EN 60947-1:2007EN 60947-2:2006EN 60947-3:1999EN 60947-4-1:2001EN 60947-4-1:2001/A1:2002EN 60947-5-1:2004EN 60947-5-1:2004/Corrigendum:2005EN 61082-1:2006EN 61140:2002EN 61180-2:1994EN 61310EN 61346EN 61557-3:2007EN 61558-1:2005EN 61558-1:2005/Corrigendum:2006EN 61558-2-6:1997EN 61800-5-2:2007EN 61984:2001EN 62023:2000EN 62027:2000EN 62061:2005EN 62079:2001EN ISO 12100-1:2003EN ISO 12100-2:2003EN ISO 13849-1:2006EN ISO 13849-2:2003EN ISO 13850:200898/37/EC2006/42/ECIEC 60038IEC 60050-191IEC 60050-195IEC 60050-411IEC 60050-441IEC 60050-442IEC 60050-826IEC 60204-11IEC 60204-31IEC 60228IEC 60269-1IEC 60287IEC 60320-1IEC 60335IEC 60364IEC 60757IEC 60870-5-1IEC 60884-1IEC 60898IEC 60909IEC/TR 60947-5-2IEC 61000-5-2IEC 61000-6-1IEC 61000-6-2IEC 61000-6-4IEC 61084IEC 61180-2IEC/TR 61200-53IEC 61496-1IEC 61557IEC 61558-2-17IEC 61800IEC 61984IEC 62305IEC 61000-6-3:2006IEC Guide 106ISO 14118:2000ISO 14122-1:2001ISO 14122-2:2001ISO 14122-3:2001CENELEC HD 516 S2All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
