a) This consumer safety standard covers micro fuel cell power systems, micro fuel cell power
units and fuel cartridges that are wearable or easily carried by hand, providing d.c.
outputs that do not exceed 60 V d.c. and power outputs that do not exceed 240 VA.
Portable fuel cell power systems that provide output levels that exceed these electrical
limits are covered by IEC 62282-5-1.
b) Externally accessible circuitry is therefore considered to be safety extra low voltage
(SELV) circuitry as defined in IEC 60950-1:2005, and as limited power circuits if further
compliance with 2.5 of IEC 60950-1:2005 is demonstrated. Micro fuel cell power systems
or units that have internal circuitry exceeding 60 V d.c. or 240 VA should be appropriately
evaluated in accordance with the separate criteria of IEC 60950-1:2005.
c) This consumer safety standard covers all micro fuel cell power systems, micro fuel cell
power units and fuel cartridges. This standard establishes requirements for all micro fuel
cell power systems, micro fuel cell power units and fuel cartridges to ensure a reasonable
degree of safety for normal use, reasonably foreseeable misuse, and consumer
transportation of such items. The fuel cartridges covered by this standard are not intended
to be refilled by the consumer. Fuel cartridges refilled by the manufacturer or by trained
technicians shall meet all requirements of this standard.
d) These products are not intended for use in hazardous areas as defined by IEV 426-03-01.
