ISO 11148-2:2011规定了用于切断电线、电缆等以及用于压接（例如电缆端头连接器）的手持式非电动工具（以下简称“切断和压接电动工具”）的安全要求。切断和卷曲电动工具可由压缩空气、液压油或内燃机驱动，供一名操作员使用，并由操作员的手支撑，带或不带悬架，例如平衡器。 ISO 11148-2:2011适用于无轭压接工具、刀具、切断工具、剪切钳和压接钳。 ISO 11148-2:2011不适用于用于将电动工具安装在夹具中的切断和压接电动工具的特殊要求和修改，也不适用于“消防和救援服务用双作用液压救援工具”。 ISO 11148-2:2011规定了与切断和压接电动工具有关的所有重大危险、危险情况或危险事件，当电动工具按预期使用时，以及在制造商合理预见的误用条件下使用时，但在潜在爆炸性环境中使用切断和压接电动工具除外。

ISO 11148-2:2011 specifies safety requirements for hand-held non-electric power tools without rotation (hereinafter "cutting-off and crimping power tools") intended for cutting off wires, cables, etc., and for crimping, for instance connectors to cable ends. The cutting-off and crimping power tools can be powered by compressed air, hydraulic fluid or internal combustion engines and are intended to be used by one operator and supported by the operator's hand or hands, with or without a suspension, e.g. a balancer. ISO 11148-2:2011 is applicable to crimping tools without a yoke, cutters, cutting-off tools, cutting pliers and crimping pliers. ISO 11148-2:2011 is not applicable to special requirements and modifications of cutting-off and crimping power tools for the purpose of mounting them in fixtures, and it is not applicable to "double acting hydraulic rescue tools for fire and rescue service use". ISO 11148-2:2011 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant to cutting-off and crimping power tools when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer, with the exception of the use of cutting-off and crimping power tools in potentially explosive atmospheres.
