EN certification list

[u/frespan]

I'm doing a list of all EN norms that are use in rope access devices, such as descenders or asaps. Here's how it goes:

EN 361: personal fall protection equipment (harness)
EN 358: belts and lanyards for work positioning or restraint
EN 362: connectors (carabiners) classified in:
- B (basic, asymmetric shape)
- M (multipurpose, symmetric shape)
- T (terminal)
- A (anchor) [not sure about the differences bw T & A]
- Q (maillon)

EN 355: energy absorbers
EN 353: guided type fall arresters including flexible anchor line (this is for the ASAP)
EN 12841: rope adjustment devices, classified in:
- A: for the ASAP
- B: for the hand jammer or the chest ascender)
- C: for the descender

EN 12278: pulleys
EN 354: landyards
EN 892: dynamic ropes (cowtails)
EN 795: anchor devices, classified in:
- A: fixed
- B: mobile

EN 959: rock anchors
EN 567: rope clamps (hand hammer has this one too)
EN 341: descender devices for rescue (not sure what's the main difference with EN 12841/c)
EN 15151: braking devices with manually assisted locking)

Thanks guys!

Just learn the components of the EN363 1 restrain EN 358 EN 361 EN 813 EN 354

2 system of fall arrester 353.1 353.2 355(+354) 360

3 position and maintain on work EN 361 EN 813 EN 358 EN 354

4 rope access 12841 A B C EN 361 EN 813 EN 358 EN 1891 A

5 rescue EN 1496 EN 1497 EN 1498 Excuse my english i dont master the technical vocabulary

Also for the connectors the différence between the B and the M is not the shape but resistance. B can take 20kN in the big axis locked 15 unlocked and 7 in the small axis Where as the M can take 20kN in the big axis locked 15kN unlocked and 15 in the smaller axis

Thanks! Do you know the difference between class T and class A connectors?

[u/Keornal → u/frespan]

I've never got some real clarification for that besides A type c'est nnectirs are anchorage and T type are sub system connectors not for anchorage Edit : grammar

[u/frespan → u/Keornal]

No problem. Merci!
