Bibliography
Establishes general actuating principles for manually operated actuators forming part of the man-machine interface associated with electrical equipment, in order to: - increase the safety (e.g. of persons, property, environment) through the safe operation of the equipment; - facilitate the proper and timely operation of the actuators.
