AMENDMENT 1
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of 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, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). 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. 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 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 IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s), which
may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent
the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at https://patents.iec.ch [and/or]
www.iso.org/patents. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to IEC 61300-1:2022 has been prepared by subcommittee 86B: Fibre optic
interconnecting devices and passive components, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics.
The text of this Amendment is based on the following documents:
Draft Report on voting

The language used for the development of this Amendment is English.
This document was drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, and developed in
accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 and ISO/IEC Directives, IEC Supplement, available
at www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs. The main document types developed by IEC are
described in greater detail at www.iec.ch/publications/.
A list of all parts in the IEC 61300 series, published under the general title Fibre optic
interconnecting devices and passive components, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under webstore.iec.ch in the data related to the
specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn, or
• revised.

Add the following new subclause:
4.2.3 Requirements for test sample configuration in environmental test chamber
Annex C defines example configuration of the test sample, and specifies the fibre, pigtail, or
cable length inside the environmental test chamber for different test sample types.
Add the following new Annex C
– 4 – IEC 61300-1:2022/AMD1:2024
© IEC 2024
Annex C
(normative)
Test sample configuration in environmental test chamber
C.1 General
Annex C defines the configurations of the test samples and the fibre, pigtail, or cable lengths
inside the environmental test chamber for the different test sample types, such as:
• pigtail,
• hardened connector pigtail,
• patchcord,
• non-connectorized passive component,
• connectorized passive component,
• plug-receptacle style passive component,
• fibre management system,
• protective housing without looped cable,
• protective housing with looped cable,
• combined protective housing test sample with looped cable,
• mechanical splice or fusion splice.
An environmental test chamber is used for temperature cycling, dry heat, cold, damp heat, and
similar tests.
The test sample configuration and the fibre, pigtail, or cable lengths inside the environmental
test chamber shall be as given in clauses C.2 to C.12, unless otherwise specified in the relevant
IEC 61753 performance standard and IEC 62005 reliability document.
The method of storage shall not affect the optical fibre with respect to expansion or contraction.
Tight coiling on a rigid cable reel shall not be used. The overlength of the fibres, pigtails, or
cables of the sample inside the chamber shall be routed in large diameter loose coils or bends.
The diameter of the coils or bends shall be larger than the minimum bending diameter specified
for the cable in service. The fibre, pigtail, or cable coils shall be loosely fixed in a way that the
cable elements are not under stress and are free to move.
The test sample or the additional pigtails should have unterminated leads of sufficient length to
allow termination (splicing, connecting, etc.) to the optical monitoring equipment located outside
of the environmental test chamber. The deployment of the fibre, pigtail, or cable outside the
chamber shall not affect the results.
The configurations are shown with one incoming and one outgoing fibre, pigtail, or cable of a
test sample in Figure C.1 to Figure C.12 for illustrative purposes. Different types of test samples
exist having one or more incoming and one or more outgoing fibres, pigtails, or cables, or even
an incoming fibre, pigtail, or cable only. The test sample configurations and length specifications
for such test samples shall be applied analogously.
When several test samples are tested in the same chamber, the test samples shall be placed
in such a way that they do not influence each other and do not exert any load on other test
samples. The test samples can be placed side-by-side or on different height levels. Care should
be taken to ensure that either the specified temperature or humidity, or both, is present for all
samples. The test sample configuration and length specification for multiple test samples shall
be applied analogously.
