In Table 3 under item c) add an h) in both columns 
against ‘thermoplastic materials’ and add the following 
new footnote:

any doubt about the suitability of the material: 
The ball-pressure test described in AS/NZS 60695.10.2 
may be carried out. 
To assess compliance under normal operating 
conditions, the test shall be made in a heating 
cabinet at a temperature of 40°C ±2°C plus the 
maximum temperature rise determined under normal 
operating conditions but, it shall be at least 
- for external parts 75°C ±2°C 
- for materials supporting parts conductively connected 
to the mains 125°C ±2°C 

 N/A 

7.2 

After the second paragraph, add the following: 
The alternative method described in footnote h) of 
Table 3 may be used. 

 N/A

20.2.3 

After this Clause, add the following variation: 
20.201 Resistance to fire—Alternative tests 
20.201.1 General 
Parts of non-metallic material shall be resistant to 
ignition and the spread of fire. 
This requirement does not apply to decorative trims, 
knobs and other parts unlikely to be ignited or to 
propagate flames originating from inside the apparatus, 
or the following: 
a)  Components that are contained in an enclosure  
having a flammability category of V-0 according to 
AS/NZS 60695.11.10 and having openings only f
 

or the connecting wires filling the openings 

completely, and for ventilation not exceeding 1 mm in 
width regardless of length. 
b)   The following parts which would contribute 
negligible fuel to a fire: 
-  

small mechanical parts, the mass of which does 

not exceed 4 g, such as mounting parts, gears, cams, 
belts and bearings; 
-  

small electrical components, such as capacitors 

with a volume not exceeding 1 750 mm

3

, integrated 

circuits, transistors and optocoupler packages, if these 
components are mounted on material of flammability 
category V-1 or better according to AS/NZS 
60695.11.10. 
NOTE – In considering how to minimize propagation of 
fire and what ‘small parts’ are, account should be 
taken of the cumulative effect of small parts adjacent to 
each other for the possible effect of propagating fire 
from one part to another. 
Compliance shall be checked by the tests of 
20.201.2.1, 20.201.2.2. and 20.201.2.3 
For the base material of printed boards, compliance 
shall be checked by the test of 20.201.2.4. 
The tests shall be carried out on parts of non-metallic 
material which have been removed from the apparatus.
When the glow-wire test is carried out, they are placed 
in the same orientation as they would be in normal 
use. 
These tests are not carried out on internal wiring. 
20.201.2 Tests 
20.201.2.1 Testing of non-metallic parts 
Part of non-metallic material shall be subject to the 
glow-wire test of AS/NZS 60695.2.11 which shall be 
carried out at 550°C. 
Parts for which the glow-wire test cannot be carried 
out, such as those made of soft or foamy material, shall
meet the requirements specified in ISO 9772 for 
category FH-3 material. The glow-wire test shall not be 
carried out on parts of material classified at least FH-3 
according to ISO 9772 provided that the sample tested 
was not thicker than the relevant part. 
20.201.2.2 Testing of insulated parts 
Part of insulating material supporting potential ignition 
sources shall be subject to the glow-wire test of 
AS/NZS 64695.2.11 which shall be carried out at 
750°C.

The test shall be also carried out on other parts of 
insulating material which are within a distance of 3 mm 
of the connection 

NOTE – Contacts in components such as switch 

For parts which withstand the glow-wire test but 
produce a flame, other parts above the connection 
within the envelope of a vertical cylinder having a 
diameter of 20 mm and a height of 50 mm shall be 
subjected to the needle-flame test. However, parts 
shielded by a barrier which meets the needle-flame test 
need not be tested. The needle-flame test shall be 
made in accordance with AS/NZS 4695.2.2 with the 
following modifications: 

 N/A 

Clause of AS/NZS 
4695.2.2 

Change

 

5 Severities 
 

Replace with: 
The duration of application of the 
test flame shall be 30 s ±1 s. 

8 Test procedure 
8.2 
 
 
 
 
8.4 

 
Replace the first sentence with: 
The specimen shall be arranged 
so that the flame can be applied to 
a vertical or horizontal edge as 
shown in the examples of figure 1.
The first paragraph does not 
apply. 
Addition: 
If possible, the flame shall be 
applied at least 10 mm from a 
corner. 

8.5 Replace 

with: 

The test shall be made on one 
specimen. If the specimen does 
not withstand the test, the test 
may be repeated on two further 
specimens, both of which shall 
then withstand the test 

10 Evaluation of 
test results 
 

Replace with: 
The duration of burning (tb) shall 
not exceed 30 s. However, for 
printed circuit boards, it shall not 
exceed 15 s. 

20.2.3 

Cont. 

The needle-flame test shall not be carried out on parts 
of material classified as V-0 or V-1 according to 
AS/NZS 60695.11.10 provided that the sample tested 
was not thicker than the relevant part. 
20.201.2.3 Testing by needle-flame test 
If parts, other than enclosures, do not withstand the 
glow wire tests of 20.201.2.2, by failure to extinguish 
within 30 s after the removal of the glow-wire tip, the 
needle-flame test detailed in 20.201.2.2 shall be made 
on all parts of non-metallic material which are within a 
distance of 50 mm or which are likely to be impinged 
upon by flame during the tests of 20.201.2.2. Parts 
shielded by a separate barrier which meets the 
needleflame test shall not be tested.
