IEC Standards

This section of IEC 60095 pertains to lead-acid batteries that have a nominal voltage of 12 V, which are predominantly employed as a power source for initiating the operation of internal combustion engines, illuminating purposes, and as auxiliary power for vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines. Such batteries are commonly referred to as “starter batteries.” […]

This section of IEC 60092 is relevant to alternating current (a.c.) supply systems with voltage levels ranging from 1 kV to 15 kV inclusive. The requirements outlined in other sections of IEC 60092 are applicable as appropriate, with the exceptions noted in the subsequent clauses.

This segment of IEC 60092 specifies the requirements for electrical, mechanical, and specific properties of insulating and sheathing materials intended for use in shipboard and fixed and mobile offshore unit power, control, instrumentation, and telecommunication cables. The diverse insulating and sheathing materials have been categorized into three categories as outlined in Table 1 below.

This segment of IEC 60092 establishes the necessary requirements for the electrical, mechanical, and specific properties of insulating materials that are intended for use in onboard ship power, control, instrumentation, telecommunication, and data cables, as well as in fixed and mobile offshore units.

This section of IEC 60086 outlines the dimensions, designations, testing methods, and requirements for primary batteries used in watches. In many instances, a selection of testing methods is provided. When reporting the electrical characteristics and/or performance data of the battery, the manufacturer must indicate which testing method was employed.

IEC 60076-15:2008 applies to gas-filled power transformers, including auto-transformers. It is applicable across all construction technologies. However, the following transformers are not covered by this standard: Single-phase transformers with a rated power less than 1 kVA and three-phase transformers less than 5 kVA; Dry-type transformers (refer to IEC 60076-1 1 ); Instrument transformers (refer to

This portion of IEC 60076 pertains to dry-type power transformers, including auto-transformers, with the highest voltage rating for equipment reaching up to and including 36 kV and at least one winding operating at a voltage greater than 1.1 kV. The standard is applicable to transformers constructed using all types of technology. However, the standard does

This section of IEC 60076 is applicable to oil-immersed transformers. It outlines the impact of various ambient temperatures and load conditions on transformer life. For furnace transformers, it is advisable to consult the manufacturer regarding the unique loading profile.
