These supplementary requirements apply to fuse-links for application in equipment containing semiconductor devices for circuits of nominal voltages up to 1 000 V AC. or 1 500 V DC. and also, in so far as they are applicable, for circuits of higher nominal voltages. NOTE 1 Such fuse-Iinks are commonly referred to as "semiconductor fuse-links". NOTE 2 In most cases, a part of the associated equipment serves the purpose of a fuse-base. Owing to the great variety of equipment, no general rules can be given; the suitability of the associated equipment to serve as a fuse- base should be subject to agreement between the manufacturer and the user. However, if separate fuse-bases or fuse-holders are used, they should comply with the appropriate requirements of IEC 60269-1. NOTE 3 IEC 60269-6 (Low-voltage fuses – Part 6: Supplementary requirements for fuse-links for the protection of solar photovoltaic energy systems) is dedicated to the protection of solar photovoltaic energy systems. NOTE 4 These fuse-links are intended for use on systems employing the standardized voltages and tolerances of IEC 60038. Tests carried out on fuse-links in accordance with previous editions of this standard shall remain valid until such time as complimentary equipment has evolved to the standardized voltages and tolerances of IEC 60038. The object of these supplementary requirements is to establish the characteristics of semiconductor fuse-links in such a way that they can be replaced by other fuse-links having the same characteristics, provided that their dimensions are identical. For this purpose, this standard refers in particular to a) the following characteristics of fuses: 1) their rated values; 2) their temperature rises in normal service; 3) their power dissipation; 4) their time-current characteristics; 5) their breaking capacity; 6) their cut-off current characteristics and their I2t characteristics; 7) their arc voltage characteristics; b) type tests for verification of the characteristics of fuses; c) the markings on fuses; d) availability and presentation of technical data (see Annex BB).

IEC 60269-3:2024 is divided into four fuse systems, each dealing with a specific example of standardized fuses for use by unskilled persons. This part applies to “gG” fuses only.

NOTE 1 Practical implementation case studies are provided as examples in the companion Technical Report IEC TR 62669 [5]. NOTE 2 Although the current BS product types have been specified to operate up to 200 GHz (see, for example, [6] and [7]), the upper frequency of 300 GHz is consistent with applicable exposure limits. NOTE 3 The lower frequency considered for ambient sources, 100 kHz, is derived from ICNIRP-1998 [2] and ICNIRP-2020 [1]. However, some applicable exposure guidelines require ambient fields to be evaluated as low as 3 kHz, e.g. Safety Code 6 [4] and IEEE Std C95.1-2019 [3]. NOTE 4 Specification of appropriate RF exposure mitigation measures such as signage, access control, and training are beyond the scope of this document. It is possible to refer to the applicable regulations or recommended practices on these topics. NOTE 5 While this document is based on the current international consensus about the best engineering practice for assessing the compliance of RF exposure with the applicable exposure limits, it is possible that national regulatory agencies specify different requirements. The entity conducting an RF exposure assessment needs to be aware of the applicable regulations. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2022. It includes corrections of obvious errors and text improvements on the third edition in order to bring more clarity in the description of the assessment methods and avoid misinterpretations.

This part of IEC 60684 gives the requirements for two types of heat-shrinkable, polyolefin sleeving, stress control, not flame retarded, with a nominal shrink ratio up to 3:1. This sleeving has been found suitable for use up to temperatures of 100 °C. - Type A : Medium wall Internal diameter up to 65,0 mm typically - Type B : Thick wall Internal diameter up to 95,0 mm typically This sleeving is normally supplied in the colour black. Since these types of sleevings cover a significantly large range of sizes and wall thicknesses, Annex A in this standard provides guidance to the range of sizes available. The actual size will be agreed between the user and the supplier. Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application need to be based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone. This sleeving is designed to be used in MV cable accessories and as such electrical performance will be proven as part of the assembly. Examples of this are described in HD 629 and IEC 60502 (all parts)

NOTE Clause A.2 contains guidance or rationale for this clause. This document specifies requirements for small-bore connectors intended to be used for connections in neural applications. This document does not specify requirements for the medical devices or accessories that use these connectors. Such requirements are given in particular standards for specific medical devices or accessories.

IEC 63270-1:2025 provides guidance on the functional structure model, procedure, method, interface of function blocks. It also offers guidance on data requirements for predictive maintenance of equipment, devices and systems for industrial automation applications. Condition monitoring is not only within the scope of this document but can also be an important input for predictive maintenance.

IEC 61987-41: 2025 provides: • a characterization for the integration of process analysers in the Common Data Dictionary (CDD), • generic structures for operating lists of properties (OLOP) and device lists of properties (DLOP) of measuring equipment in conformance with IEC 61987-10, • generic structures for Dynamic Data, e.g. for condition monitoring of process analysers. The generic structures for the OLOP and DLOP contain the most important blocks for process analysers. Blocks pertaining to a specific equipment type will be described in the corresponding part of the IEC 61987 standard series. Similarly, equipment properties are not part of this document. Thus, OLOP, DLOPs and LOPDs for selected process analysers families will be found in the IEC CDD.

IEC 62290-2:2025 specifies the functional requirements of UGTMS (urban guided transport management and command/control systems) for use in urban guided passenger transport lines and networks. This document is applicable for new lines or for upgrading existing signalling and command control systems. The IEC 62290 series specifies the functional, system and interface requirements for the command, control, and management systems intended to be used on urban, guided passenger transport lines and networks. These systems are designated herein as urban guided transport management and command/control systems (UGTMS). UGTMS cover a wide range of operations needs from non-automated (GOA1) to unattended (GOA4) operation. A line may be equipped with UGTMS on its full length or only partly equipped. The IEC 62290 series does not specifically address security issues. However, aspects of safety requirements may apply to ensuring security within the urban guided transit system. The main objectives of this series are as follows: * to provide a baseline system description and functional requirements specification for a transport authority to use in a request for proposal, * to provide recommendations for those transport authorities wishing to acquire an interoperable or interchangeable system. It is the responsibility of the transport authority concerned to decide on how to apply the IEC 62290 series and to take into account their particular needs. This document is applicable to applications using * continuous data transmission, * continuous supervision of train movements by train protection profile, and * localisation of trains by onboard UGTMS equipment (reporting trains), and optionally by external wayside (and optionally onboard) device. In this document, the functional requirements set the framework to which detailed functions are added to define any generic or specific application. Because of that, although this document is applicable as a basis to define SRS, FIS and FFFIS, elements can be added for a generic or specific application. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) the functions 5.1.4.5 Stopping a train en route, 5.1.5.4 Monitor speed limit at discrete location, 5.5.5 Manage UGTMS transfer tracks, 5.6.4.1 Monitor passenger emergency calls and 6.2.4 Ensure connecting services have been deleted; b) the functions 5.5.11 Manage train washing, 5.5.12 Manage non-stopping areas and 6.3.4 Perform progressive shutdown have been added; c) many of the requirements have been reworded: changes in their wording could be only minor and editorial, or it could have technical consequences; d) some requirements of the second edition have been moved from one function/subfunction to another; e) some requirements have been deleted; f) some new requirements have been added in the existing functions; g) an informative annex giving the reader some user’s recommendations about this document has been added; h) another informative annex giving some typical performance-related criteria has been also added. i) an informative annex providing a summary of applicability of functions and subfunctions (mandatory or optional) depending on GOA has been added. In order to avoid any disturbance in the use of the document, when functions or requirements of IEC
