This document provides guidance for assessing the risk of a burn from unintentional contact withreadily accessible surfaces of electrical equipment under the scope of the Low Voltage Directive.This document establishes surface temperature limits, where such limits are required, and describesthe maximum contact periods with a hot surface that a person may be subjected to without beingexposed to a risk of burn. Curves of maximum temperatures versus contact times are described fordifferent types of material with different types of surfaces.This document does not address temperature limits for hot functional surfaces.This document applies to surfaces of product
