Overview

The prEN IEC 60115-4-10:2025/prAA:2025 standard specifies requirements for fixed power resistors with axial leads designed for through-hole assembly (THT) on circuit boards. It targets general electronic equipment classified under level G, which includes devices typically used in consumer products and telecommunication user terminals. The classification ensures the resistors perform reliably under benign or moderate environmental conditions where the major design priority is functionality.

Developed by the CLC/TC 40XB committee, this document is a blank detail specification intended to guide manufacturers and developers in drafting detailed product specifications. It establishes test schedules and performance requirements aligned with the quality assessment procedures in IEC 60115-1:2020, Annex Q, supporting consistency and quality assurance in resistor manufacturing.

Key Topics

  • Scope of Application
    Covers fixed power resistors with axial leads for THT on PCBs used in general electronic equipment meeting classification level G.

  • Classification Level G
    Defined by IEC 60115-1:2020, level G applies to resistors intended for environments with moderate stresses, such as consumer and telecom electronics where functional reliability is paramount.

  • Test Schedules and Performance Requirements
    Specifies standardized tests needed to assess resistor quality and compliance, facilitating product certification and quality control.

  • Detail Specification Framework
    Provides a blank template for drafting specific part specifications based on component type or construction, such as wirewound resistors, enabling clear differentiation within product lines.

  • Cross-References and Normative Documents
    References related IEC standards including IEC 60115-1 (generic specification), IEC 60115-4 (sectional specification), IEC 60062 (marking codes), and others to ensure alignment across resistor specifications.

Applications

  • General Electronic Equipment
    Suitable for devices requiring fixed power resistors installed through holes on printed circuit boards, predominantly in everyday consumer electronics and telecom devices.

  • Consumer Products
    Includes household electronics, audio/video equipment, and user terminals, where cost-effective, reliable resistors are essential.

  • Telecommunication Equipment
    User terminals and related devices benefit from level G resistors that maintain function under normal operating conditions.

  • Through-Hole Technology (THT) Assembly
    Designed specifically for insertion and soldering through PCB holes, ensuring robustness and durability in physical mounting.

Related Standards

  • IEC 60115-1:2020
    Generic specification for fixed resistors, defining classification levels, common requirements, and quality assessment methods.

  • IEC 60115-4:2022
    Sectional specification focusing on power resistors for through-hole assembly or chassis mounting.

  • IEC 60062 and IEC 60063
    Standards defining marking codes and preferred number series for resistors facilitating component identification and standardization.
