1.1 Scope

Replacement:
This part of IEC 60730 applies to automatic electrical humidity sensing controls for use in, on or in association with equipment, including controls for heating, air-conditioning and similar applications. The equipment may use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal energy, etc. or a combination thereof.

NOTE Throughout this standard, the word "equipment" includes "appliance" and "control system".

This International Standard is applicable to automatic electrical humidity sensing controls forming part of a building automation control system within the scope of ISO 16484.

This standard also applies to automatic electrical humidity sensing controls for equipment that may be used by the public, such as equipment intended to be used in shops, offices, hospitals, farms and commercial and industrial applications.

This standard does not apply to automatic electrical humidity sensing controls intended exclusively for industrial process applications unless explicitly mentioned in the equipment standard.

1.1.2 Replacement:
This standard applies to automatic electrical controls, mechanically or electrically operated, responsive to or controlling humidity.

1.1.3 Not applicable.

Project need:

This proposed New Standard is being developed at the request of Industry, regulators and Certification agencies. It will provide the industry with updated references and requirements based on current best practices. This will meet the strategic needs of the following key interests: a) ensuring that the latest innovative/technology/safety features are available for users, b) addressing needs of regulators by providing suitable requirements; and c) supporting certification bodies.]
