Preface:
This is the first edition of CSA C22.2 No. 60335-2-87, Household and similar electrical appliances — Safety — Part 2-87: Particular requirements for electrical animal stunning equipment, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 60335-2-87 (edition 3:2016 consolidated with Amendment 1:2018). It is one in a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code.
This Standard is intended to be used in conjunction with CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 60335-1:16, Household and similar electrical appliances — Safety — Part 1: General requirements (adopted IEC 60335-1:2010+A1:2013, with Canadian deviations).
This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
Scope:
This part of IEC 60335 deals with the safety of electric animal-stunning equipment the rated voltage of which is not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances.
NOTE 101 Battery-operated appliances and other d.c. supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard. Dual supply appliances, either mains-supplied or battery-operated, are regarded as battery-operated appliances when operated in the battery mode.
This standard is applicable to electric animal-stunning equipment for industrial or commercial use, for use on farms or for use in areas where they may be a source of danger to the public.
So far as is practical, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by these types of appliances.
NOTE 102 Examples of electric animal-stunning equipment within the scope of this standard are those used to stun:
bovines such as cattle, calves, cows, heifers and bulls,
ovines such as sheep and lambs,
caprines such as goats,
cervids such as deer,
solipeds such as horses, donkeys and mules,
birds such as chickens, turkeys and guinea fowl,
porcines such as pigs,
fur animals such as foxes, chinchilla, rabbits and possums,
mustelids such as mink and polecats,
other ruminants such as camels.
NOTE 103 The following types of electric animal-stunning equipment are covered by this standard:
manual, semi-automatic and automatic.
NOTE 104 Attention is drawn to the fact that:
for electric animal-stunning equipment intended to be used on board ships, additional requirements may be necessary,
in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour, the national water supply authorities and similar authorities,
in many countries, additional requirements are specified concerning the humane slaughter of animals.
NOTE 105 This standard does not apply to:
appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas),
electric fence energizers (see IEC 60335-2-76),
electric fishing machines (see IEC 60335-2-86),
meat tenderizers, carcass immobilizers, carcass stiffeners, spinal discharge equipment or similar equipment.
