National foreword
This British Standard is the English language version of EN 50186-2:1998.
The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technical Committee
PEL/78, Tools for live working, which has the responsibility to:

Ð aid enquirers to understand the text;

Ð present to the responsible European committee any enquiries on the
interpretation, or proposals for change, and keep the UK interests informed;

A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained on request to

its secretary.
Cross-references
The British Standards which implement international or European publications
referred to in this document may be found in the BSI Standards Catalogue under the
section entitled ªInternational Standards Correspondence Indexº, or by using the

A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.

Foreword
This European Standard was prepared by the
CENELEC BTTF 62-4, Live-line washing systems for
power installations with rated voltages above 1 kV.
The text of the draft was submitted to the formal vote
and was approved by CENELEC as EN 50186-2
on 1997-03-11.
The following dates were fixed:

Ð latest date by which the EN has

to be implemented at national
level by publication of an
identical national standard or by
endorsement (dop) 1999-03-01
Ð latest date by which the national
standards conflicting with the
EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 1999-03-01

These normative annexes list the particular national

requirements, as laid down in the relevant laws,
regulations and standards, which specify the protective
distances for each of the CENELEC member countries
at the time when this standard was prepared.
They may be different to the protective distances given
in EN 50186-1.
The national annexes are summarized by the relevant
member countries. National committees shall notify
CENELEC of any changes needed to their national
annex.
