GB/T 3805-2008 GB NATIONAL STANDARD OF THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA ICS 13.260 K 09 Replacing GB/T 3805-1993 Extra-low voltage (ELV) - Limit values ISSUED ON: JANUARY 22, 2008 IMPLEMENTED ON: SEPTEMBER 01, 2008 Issued by: General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine; Standardization Administration of the People’s Republic of China. Table of Contents Foreword ... 3 1 Scope ... 5 2 Normative references ... 5 3 Terms and definitions ... 6 4 General ... 6 5 Environmental situations ... 7 6 Voltage limits ... 7 7 Special applications ... 9 Appendix A (Informative) Factors affecting voltage limits ... 12 References ... 15 Extra-low voltage (ELV) - Limit values 1 Scope This Standard gives guidance on the selection of voltage classes within Band I, as defined in GB/T 18379, for conductive parts that may be touched by human beings in various applications and environmental situations under both normal and fault conditions. After taking into account the significant factors, professional standardization technical committees may select voltage limit values other than those given in this Standard, if it is shown by experience that a reasonable safety level can be achieved. Voltage classes for patient contact in medical applications are not covered by this Standard. This Standard does not include any reference to insulation systems or to methods of protection. The conventional touch voltage limit value as defined in IEC 60050-826 for the purpose of automatic disconnection of the supply is not within the scope of this Standard. 2 Normative references The terms in the following documents become the terms of this Standard by reference to this Standard. For dated references, all subsequent amendments (not including errata content) or revisions do not apply to this standard. However, parties to agreements that are based on this Standard are encouraged to study whether the latest versions of these documents can be used. For undated references, the latest edition applies to this Standard.

Note: Parts which are intended to be gripped with the entire hand are assumed to be grippable without further investigation. See GB 12113-2003 for a full description of “grippable part”. 3.2 touch current The electric current passing through the human body or animal body when a person or animal comes into contact with one or more accessible parts of equipment. [IEV 195-05-21] 3.3 touch voltage The voltage with the conductive parts when a person or animal comes into contact with the conductive parts. [IEV 195-05-11] 4 General The values given in this Standard are based on GB/T 13870.1-1992 and GB/T 13870.2- 1997, as well as experience from other sources. The regulation of the voltage limits is given for both normal and fault conditions. These limits are not related to the concepts of direct and indirect contact, nor are they used to distinguish between grounded and ungrounded circuits. Voltages up to the limit values can be considered as non-hazardous to the human body under the specified conditions. The voltage limits specified in this Standard refers to the voltage limits for power supplied by a power source whose internal impedance is much lower than that of the human body. For other sources, touch current limits not covered by this Standard may apply. The voltage limits stated apply to the highest voltages that can exist between two simultaneously accessible parts (with all external factors, such as mains voltage tolerance, in their least favorable condition). Factors affecting voltage limits are listed in Appendix A. 5 Environmental situations For the purposes of this Standard, the effects of the following situations are taken into account: Environmental situation 1: Both the impedance of skin and the resistance to ground are negligible (e.g., human immersed condition); Environmental situation 2: The impedance of skin and the resistance to ground are reduced (e.g., wet conditions); Environmental situation 3: Both the impedance of skin and the resistance to ground are not reduced (e.g., dry conditions); Environmental conditions 4: Special situation (e.g., electric welding, electroplating). The definition of special situation shall be stipulated by relevant professional standardization technical committees. 6 Voltage limits The voltage limits specified in this Standard are conservative for contact areas not greater than 80 cm2. Higher limits are specified for the case of small contact areas with alternating currents with a frequency not greater than 100 Hz. However, no data is available for higher frequencies or for the DC case. Voltage limits for AC are sinusoidal waveform root mean square values (r.m.s). Voltage limits for DC are the ripple-free DC voltage, which is usually a DC whose root- mean-square value of the ripple content is not greater than 10%. For example: for a 120 V ripple-free DC system, the peak value does not exceed 137 V. 6.1 Steady-state limits Appendix A (Informative) Factors affecting voltage limits Factors marked with “*” have been taken into account in the preparation of this Standard, and have played a role in determining the voltage limit in this Standard. The professional standardization technical committees shall take all these factors into consideration. A.1 Human body impedance -- touch voltage; -- humidity of the skin; -- current path; -- contact area; -- contact pressure; -- waveform/frequency. A.2 Accessible parts -- contact area (fingertip, finger, hand); -- grippability; -- location of the accessible part; -- intentional/unintentional touch. A.3 Electrical system -- AC/DC; -- waveform, frequency, single pulse; -- reference point grounding and floating grounding; -- separation from other systems; -- source impedance; -- tripping device; ......
