    Definition
  • Applies to the protection of persons and animals against electric shock. It is intended to give fundamental principles and requirements which are common to electrical installations, systems and equipment or necessary for their co-ordination.
  • IEC 61169-45:2014, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for type SQMA quick lock RF coaxial connectors.
  • IEC 61169-48:2014, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for series BMP RF coaxial connectors with blind mating, typically for use in 50 Ohms board to board connection.
  • IEC 61169-49:2014 which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for type SMAA series thread mated coaxial connectors. 
  • IEC 61169-50:2014, which is a sectional specification (SS), provides information and rules for the preparation of detail specifications (DS) for type QMA R.F. coaxial connectors with quick lock. The connectors are normally used with 50 Ohms corrugated cable and flexible cables for middle power(...)
  • Applies to equipment intended for transportable or installed use for monitoring, as a function of time, airborne radioactive iodines in the environment of a nuclear facility during normal operations, during anticipated operational occurrences or during accident conditions.
  • Applies to transportable or installed equipment for continuous monitoring of radioactive aerosols in the environment for both normal and accident conditions.
  • This set of standards describes test methods for electrical materials, interconnection structures and assemblies.
  • IEC 61190-1-2:2014-02 specifies general requirements for the characterization and testing of solder pastes used to make high-quality electronic interconnections in electronics assembly. 
  • This standard applies to coaxial communication cables. It specifies methods for determining the stability of phase of coaxial communication cables.
  • IEC 61196-9:2014(E) applies to RF flexible coaxial communication cables with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω and with solid or with semi-air-spaced dielectric.
  • IEC 61196-10:2014(E) applies to semi-rigid coaxial communication cables with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) dielectric and tubular outer conductor. These cables are intended for use in microwave and wireless equipments or other signal transmission equipments or units at frequencies above(...)
  • IEC 61196-10-1:2014(E) applies to coaxial communication cables described in IEC 61196-10. It specifies the requirements for semi-rigid radio frequency and coaxial cables with solid dielectric and semi-airspace dielectric. These cables are intended for use in microwave and wireless equipment or(...)
  • Lays down requirements for the design qualification and type approval of terrestrial photovoltaic modules suitable for long-term operation in general open-air climates, as defined in IEC 60721-2-1. Determines the electrical and thermal characteristics of the module and shows, as far as(...)
  • Applies to equipment and data related to the process of teleradiotherapy, including patient image data used in relation with radiotherapy treatment planning systems, radiotherapy simulators, isocentric gamma beam therapy equipment, isocentric medical electron accelerators, and non-isocentric(...)
  • Applies to equipment for temporary earthing or earthing and short-circuiting of electrically isolated parts of a.c. installations, the disconnection of which has been verified, for the protection of workers while work is in progress using lance(s) as the earthing or earthing and(...)
  • Defines the intended criteria for the choice, conception and use of equipment for the measurement of the response time of resistance temperature detectors (RTD) which are used in the safety and control systems of nuclear reactors. Describes the techniques which can be used for the in situ(...)
  • Specifies the performance and the functional characteristics of the electrical supply systems required for the instrumentation and control (I&C) systems important to safety of a nuclear power plant. Gives also guidance on the possible use of these supplies for other I&C systems.
  • IEC 61226:2009 establishes a method of classification of the information and command functions for nuclear power plants, and the instrumentation and control systems and equipment that provide those functions, into categories that designate the importance to safety of the function.
  • IEC 61227:2008 identifies the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) requirements for discrete controls, multiplexed conventional systems, and soft control systems. To be used with IEC 60964 and IEC 61772. Is intended for application to the design of new main control rooms in nuclear power plants(...)
