This European Standard deals with requirements for barriers to give users the possibility to prevent workers from entering the danger zone unintentionally by the use of such barriers.<\/p>\n

This standard defines minimum requirements and test procedures for these barriers concerning the dimensions, the stability and electrical properties.<\/p>\n

This standard also gives recommendations for the marking (visual demarcation line) where a person would enter the danger zone.<\/p>\n

For combinations of barriers and TWS see also EN 16704\u20112\u20111:2016<\/span> <\/span>.<\/p>\n
