This document specifies the general characteristics and assembly of personal fall protection systems. It gives examples for the specific types of personal fall protection systems and describes how components may be assembled into systems. This European Standard describes characteristics and principles for the assembly of personal fall protection systems in general, and, specifically, for restraint, work positioning, fall arrest, rope access and rescue systems. For the benefit of the user, examples of systems are provided, including figures to illustrate the various systems. This European Standard does not give product requirements and test methods. Product requirements for conformity assessment are defined in the product standards. This European Standard does not define the use of personal fall protection systems, but the recommendations and examples given in this European Standard are based on a common practice of using personal fall protection systems. When a personal fall protection system is used, a system that prevents a fall is preferable to a system that arrests a fall.
