FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60695-2-11 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 89: Fire
hazard testing.
The first edition of IEC 60695-2-11 cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 60695-2-1/1
published in 1994. It also constitutes a technical revision.
This standard has the status of a basic safety standard in accordance with IEC Guide 104.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
89/413/FDIS 89/432/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
The contents of the corrigendum of January 2001 have been included in this copy.

This standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 60695-2-10.
Annex A is for information only.
IEC 60695-2, under the general heading Fire hazard testing – Part 2: Glowing/hot-wire based
test methods, consists of the following parts:
Part 2-10: Glowing/hot-wire based test methods – Glow-wire apparatus and common test procedure
Part 2-11: Glowing/hot-wire based test methods – Glow-wire flammability test method for end-products
Part 2-12: Glowing/hot-wire based test methods – Glow-wire flammability test method for materials
Part 2-13: Glowing/hot-wire based test methods – Glow-wire ignitability test method for materials
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until 2006.
At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed;
• withdrawn;
• replaced by a revised edition; or
• amended.

1 Scope
This part of IEC 60695 specifies the details of the glow-wire test to be applied to end-products
for fire hazard testing.
For the purpose of this standard, end-product means electrotechnical equipment, its
subassemblies, and components.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
basic safety publications in the preparation of its publications.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text,
constitute provisions of this part of IEC 60695. For dated references, subsequent amendments
to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements
based on this part of IEC 60695 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the
most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated references, the
latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of IEC and ISO maintain
registers of currently valid International Standards.

parts, where each surface lies completely within a circle of 15 mm diameter or where some of
the surface lies outside the 15 mm diameter circle but in such a way that it is not possible to
place a circle of 8 mm diameter on any of this remaining surface
NOTE When checking a surface, projections on the surface and holes which are not greater than 2 mm on the
