This document specifies a laboratory method for the determination of chlorophyll a content in algae. The method was initially tested and evaluated on the microalgae species Nannochloropsis and a heat treated algal product tomato soup with Nannochloropsis supplement, and the macro algae species Ulva sp, Furcellaria lumbricalis, and Saccharina latissima. During an Interlaboratory Trial the method was tested on the microalgae species Nannochloropsis and the macro algae species Saccharina latissima. The microalgae species Nannochloropsis and Phaodactlylum and the macro algae species Ulva sp and Saccharina latissima were tested in a Round Robin test. This document is only validated for chlorophyll a, but it can be used for other chlorophylls as well.
If possible, an attempt will be made to incorporate an alternative method than the HPLC method proposed into the standard (informative or normative), on the condition that research on the use of a cheaper method fits into the budget allocated for this topic. The more, it is imperative that this additional method should obtain comparable results and accuracy as the HPLC method.
The schedules of all the additional experiments mentioned are based on the schedule of the standard on chlorophyll.

IEC 60670-21:2024 applies to boxes, enclosures and parts of enclosures (hereafter called "boxes" and "enclosures") for electrical accessories with a rated voltage not exceeding 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC intended for household or similar fixed electrical installations, either indoors or outdoors. Boxes and enclosures complying with this document are suitable for use at ambient temperatures not normally exceeding +40 °C, but their average over a period of 24 h does not exceed +35 °C, with a lower limit of the ambient air temperature of −5 °C. Other temperatures outside the above range can apply according to the classification of the boxes and the enclosures. This document applies to boxes and enclosures for ceiling and wall mounting with provision for suspension means. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2004 and Amendment 1:2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Complete revision of the tests and requirements of the suspension means.

IEC 60670-24:2024 applies to enclosures and parts of them for housing protective devices and other power dissipating electrical equipment intended to be used with a rated voltage not exceeding 400 V and a total incoming load current not exceeding 125 A for household and similar fixed electrical installations. These enclosures are intended to be installed in locations where unskilled persons have access. They are intended to be equipped with electrical equipment by skilled persons (installers). These enclosures are intended to be installed where the prospective short circuit current does not exceed 10 kA unless they are protected by current limiting protective devices with a cut-off current not exceeding 17 kA. Enclosures complying with this document are suitable for use at ambient temperature not normally exceeding 40 °C, but their average temperature over a period of 24 h does not exceed 35 °C, with a lower limit of the ambient air temperature of −5 °C. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) revision of requirements for protection against electric shock in Clause 10;
b) addition of requirements for functional earthing in 11.101;
c) revision of the requirements for fixing of flush type and semi-flush type enclosures in 12.12;
d) revision of the requirements for resistance of insulating material to abnormal heat and to fire in Clause 18;
e) addition of calculations to take into account the power loss of electronic devices in Clause AA.6;
f) addition of tests and requirements for enclosures exposed to direct sunlight with the related Annex CC;
g) addition of tests and requirements for enclosures with separate area to accommodate multimedia-equipment with the related Annex DD;
h) addition of tests and requirements for enclosures used with connected devices or equipment with the related Annex EE.

This document specifies a standardized protocol for downloading data from the equipment control box to an in vehicle board computer to ensure interchangeability between a vehicle and different equipment that the same vehicle can carry.
It specifies the interface connection as well as variables, records and reports which permit standardized protocol to cover applications with the greatest possible variety of equipment for performing winter maintenance and road service area maintenance.

This document specifies the minimum requirements for the safety, strength and durability of all types of domestic seating for adults.
It does not apply to ranked seating, seating for non-domestic use, office work chairs, office visitors’ chairs, chairs for educational institutions, outdoor seating and to links for linked seating for which European Standards exist.
It does not include requirements for the durability of upholstery materials, castors, reclining and tilting mechanisms and seat height adjustment mechanisms.
It does not include requirements for electrical safety.
It does not include requirements for the resistance to ageing, degradation, flammability and ergonomics.
The tests are based on use by persons weighing up to 110 kg.
Annex A (normative) describes the seat side-to-side durability test in D-G points.
Annex B (informative) gives rationales for some of the tests referred to in Table 1.
Annex C (normative) describes the test methods for finger entrapment and shear and compression.

IEC 62841-2-10:2017 applies to mixers the rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase a.c. or d.c. tools, and 480 V for three-phase a.c. tools. The rated input is not more than 3 700 W. The limits for the applicability of this standard for battery tools are given in K.1 and L.1. This standard deals with the hazards presented by tools which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the tools. Hand-held electric tools, which can be mounted on a support or working stand for use as fixed tools without any alteration of the tool itself, are within the scope of this standard and such combination of a hand-held tool and a support is considered to be a transportable tool and thus covered by the relevant Part 3.
Mixers are not considered to be tools with a liquid system.
This standard does not apply to drills and impact drills, even if they can be used as a mixer.
This Part 2-10 is to be used in conjunction with the first edition of IEC 62841-1:2014 .
The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests.
It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 36 months from the date of publication.
Key words: Mixer, Hand-held tool, Safety
