1 Scope

This clause of GB 4706.1-2005 is replaced by the following.

This Part of GB 4706 deals with the safety of electric drives for rolling

equipment such as shutters, blinds and awnings, intended for household and

similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for

single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances.

Drives for equipment with a spring-controlled driven part, such as a folding

arm awning, are also within the scope of this Part.

NOTE 101 Examples of rolling equipment that can be driven are

- awnings;

- blinds;

- grilles covering doors and windows;

- projection screens;

- shutters covering doors and windows.

Examples are shown in Figure 101.

NOTE 102 Drives may be supplied with a driven part.

Appliances not intended for normal household use but that nevertheless may

be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used

by laymen in shops, in light industry, on farms and on industrial premises, are

within the scope of this Part.

As far as is practicable, this Part deals with the common hazards presented

by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home.

However, in general, it does not take into account playing with the appliance

by young children but recognizes that children may be in the vicinity.

driven part shall not unroll in an uncontrolled manner.

After 15 s, the driven part is retracted.

The drive is then supplied at 0.9 times rated voltage and started 10 times from

different positions in the rolling direction so as to retract the driven part. The

drive is allowed to come to rest between successive starts.

The drive shall retract the driven part to the fully rolled position each time and

protective devices shall not operate.
