  • IEC/TS 62600-100:2012(E) provides a method for assessing the electrical power production performance of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC), based on the performance at a testing site. Provides a systematic method which includes: measurement of WEC power output in a range of sea states; WEC power(...)
  • IEC/TS 62600-200:2013(E) provides the following items: a systematic methodology for evaluating the power performance of tidal current energy converters (TECs) that produce electricity for utility scale and localized grids; a definition of TEC rated power and rated water velocity; a methodology(...)
  • Provides guidance on the design, planning, operation, installation, commissioning and maintenance of intrusion and hold-up alarm system (I&HAS) installed in buildings. Requirements for I&HAS are specified in IEC 62642-1:2010. It also applies to intruder alarm system and hold-up alarm system(...)
  • IEC/TS 62727:2012(E) provides guidelines for the parameters to be specified for solar trackers for photovoltaic systems and provides recommendations for measurement techniques. The purpose of this test specification is to define the performance characteristics of trackers and describe the(...)
  • Applies to all types of counting dosemeters, irrespective of the measuring quantity and the type of radiation intended to be measured. It ensures that a single radiation pulse can be correctly measured even if the dosemeter is in the internal state relevant for measuring background or(...)
  • This IEC Technical Specification pertains to Photovoltaic (PV) modules – Cyclic (dynamic) mechanical load testing.
  • Describes equipment inspection and radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic field measurement procedures for evaluation of RF industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) equipment installed in the user's facility.
  • Definitions of terms in the field of antennas are provided.
  • Provides many of the procedures currently used by antenna test organization.
  • The standard for measurement methods of emissions from FM and television broadcast receivers in the frequency range of 9 kHz to 40 GHz. Spurious radiation from sound and television broadcast receivers of the superheterodyne type are possible sources of interference with other radio services.(...)
  • Terms and definitions used in the context of electromagnetic wave propagation relating to the fields of telecommunications, remote sensing, radio astronomy, optical waves, plasma waves, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, and magnetohydrodynamic, acoustic, and electrostatic waves are supplied.
  • Provides uniform measurement procedures for determining the shielding effectiveness of electromagnetic (EM) shielding for a variety of enclosures and boxes having all dimensions between 0.1 and 2 meters in the radio frequency range not addressed by IEEE 299-2006. This standard is divided into(...)
  • Uniform measurement procedures and techniques are provided for determining the effectiveness of electromagnetic shielding enclosures at frequencies from 9 kHz to 18 GHz (extendable to 50 Hz and 100 GHz, respectively) for enclosures having all dimension greater than or equal to 2.0 m. The types(...)
  • Measurements of the electrical properties of naturally occurring solids are covered in the scope of this project. Not covered are methods that rely on mapping earth structure anomalies unless directly related to electrical properties. Coverage of numerical methods for forward/inverse modeling(...)
  • Covers definitions of terms, controlled test conditions, test apparatus, test methods and data presentation, all of which form the basis for establishing the energy levels of spurious emissions of mobile communication transmitters designed to generate frequency-modulated (FM) signals in the(...)
  • Test procedures for microwave field disturbance sensors to measure radio frequency (RF) radiated field strength of the fundamental frequency, harmonic frequencies, near field power flux density, and nonharmonic spurious emissions of sensors operating within the frequency range of 300 MHz to 40(...)
  • Uniform procedures for the measurement of power frequency electric and magnetic fields from alternating current (AC) overhead power lines and for the calibration of the meters used in these measurements are established. The procedures apply to the measurement of electric and magnetic fields(...)
  • Standard for Ethernet Amendment 2: Physical Layer Specifications and Management Parameters for 100 Gb/s Operation Over Backplanes and Copper Cables.
  • IEEE Standard for Ethernet Amendment 1: Physical Layer Specifications and Management Parameters for 100 Mb/s Operation over a Single Balanced Twisted Pair Cable (100BASE-T1). This standard deals with the 100BASE-T1 Physical Layer (PHY) specifications and management parameters for(...)
  • IEEE 802.19.1 specifies radio technology independent methods for coexistence among dissimilar or independently operated wireless networks operating in TVwhite space (TVWS).
