This document specifies the minimum requirements for the safety, strength and durability of all types of domestic tables intended for use by adults, including those with glass in their construction. It also contains additional test methods in Annex A and Annex B. It does not apply to office tables and office desks, tables for non-domestic use, tables for educational institutions or outdoor tables for which European Standards exist. It does not apply to trestle tables. With the exception of stability tests, this document does not provide assessment of the suitability of any storage features included in domestic tables. It does not include requirements for electrical safety. It does not include requirements for the resistance to ageing and degradation. Annex A (normative) contains test methods for finger entrapment. Annex B (informative) contains a table top deflection test. Annex C (informative) contains a rationale.<\/p>\n
