29、ced or hook ladders with extension or having a combination of insulating and conductive sections and used for live working on a.c. or d.c. electrical installations at 1 000 V and above for a.c. and 1 500 V and above for d.c. The ladders are classified functionally as Category 1 and Category 2. This

30、standard concerns only ladders made of synthetic material. These ladders are used, to provide access, generally on overhead line structures and to facilitate live working, either hot stick, barehanded or a combination of both. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisio

For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate t

43、ssification 4.1 Category 1 Category 1 ladders are designed to be attached to overhead line structures to allow climbing. These ladders are positioned vertically on the structures with special cradles and they are attached by fixing systems to prevent the ladder from moving on the structures. The lad

44、der may rest either on the ground or on a special platform fitted to the structure. These ladders shall comprise a minimum of one insulating section. They may be extended by the use of additional insulating or conductive sections suitably interlocked. Category 1 ladders are restricted to voltages up

45、 to and including 36 kV. Page 7EN 61478:20014.2 Category 2 Category 2 ladders are designed for live working, either hot stick or bare hand, to provide access to live parts in either a horizontal, vertical or inclined position. Ladders are positioned on the structure by two hooks or by a special turn

46、ing saddle. These ladders can be extended by the use of a hook ladder extension. 5 Requirements 5.1 General physical requirements The rungs shall have a non-slip surface and shall be perpendicular to the stiles. The shape of rungs shall be designed to ensure a firm grip for gloved hands and also a s

47、upport that ensures comfort for the worker wearing shoes or boots. All metal parts shall be corrosion resistant. 5.2 Category 1 physical requirements 5.2.1 Base section The length of base sections shall be within the following ranges: 2 100 mm to 2 400 mm; 3 000 mm to 3 500 mm; with a margin of 5 mm

48、 in all cases. NOTE The difference in length of the two stiles should not exceed 2 mm. A base section includes: two stiles, each having an adjustable height foot; seven or ten rungs according to the length; two cradles; two or three fixing systems according to the section length: one is at the same

49、level as each cradle, the other is upon the first lower rung. The base section shall be equipped at its upper part with a female connecting device of the same type as that of the other ladder sections. 5.2.2 Ladder extensions The length of extensions shall be within the following ranges: 1 200 mm to 2 000 mm; 2 400 mm to 3 000 mm; 3 500 mm to 4 000 mm; with a margin of 5 mm in all cases.
