The European safety standard for most battery chargers is EN 60335-2-29 which must be used in conjunction with EN 60335-1. This standard applies to mains-operated, self-contained battery chargers having an SELV output for household and similar uses.
This standard does not apply to battery chargers for building-in, for industrial purposes, for special environments (i.e. corrosive or explosive atmosphere), toys, electronic flash apparatus, or as a supply unit for electronic equipment.
