ETCI's Task Forces

ETCI's Task Forces, TFs, are established to carry out a specific task normally within a definite time period. The following are the current ETCI TFs:

Photoelectronic Controls Task Force

The PCTF was set up to pursue the conversion of the Irish standard, I.S.428 - Photoelectronic Controls - into a European standard (EN) at CENELEC. The CENELEC Technical Board (BT) set up its Task Force, BTTF 74-1, to carry out this work. The ETCI PCTF's function is to provide the Irish contribution to this BT Task Force. More on PCTF

Residual Current Devices Task Force

The RCDTF was established in September 1996 to provide a specialist focus for formulating standards for residual current devices. The Task Force is responsible for monitoring the work of CENELEC Technical Committee TC23E (Circuit breakers and similar devices for household and similar applications) in so far as it relates to RCDs and for providing appropriate advice to ETCI Council.

Qualifications of Installation Contractors Task Force

The Qualifications of Installation Contractors Task Force was inaugurated in 1998 to represent the Irish input at the CENELEC TC218 on Qualification of Electrical Installation Contractors. This CENELEC Technical Committee task is to prepare a draft standard defining the characteristics and relevant general criteria and references for qualification of electrical power works, electronic and telecommunication works and other electrical installations, included under Directive 93/37/EEC.
