EN 50365: 2002 – Insulating helmets for use on low voltage installations

This standard is for helmets used for working live or close to live parts on installations not exceeding 1000 V a.c or 1500 V d.c. Testing to EN 50365 exceeds testing under EN397 for electrical properties.

Marking: double triangle + class + batch number.
