Introduction to this CDV for National Committees (Not part of the proposal)
This CDV has been prepared by 34D/WG1 LUMEX, supported by the SC34D Editing Team EG3 and
th
IEC Central Office editing staff. For this new 10 Edition of the standard the main task has been to
conduct a complete editorial review of the standard to align with the most recent IEC directives and
editing rules. The editing tasks associated with this work being as follows:
• Review complete standard to address correct editing of notes
• Rename ‘Sections’ to ‘Clauses’
• Review the placement of terms/definitions, together with alignment to IEV
• Review the full standard to address any issues of hanging paragraphs
• Review the numbering and placement of tables
• Review the standard for the correct formatting and placement of figures
• Review diagrams/figures and move to main body of standard
• Review of the normative references
• Review any open IEC Editor comments from preparation of Edition 9.0
• Consider any consequences for IEC 60598 Part 2’s & IEC 60570
• Check all cross referencing within the document
Particular attention is drawn to the new Annex V of the document that gives details of the structure of
this new Edition 10.0 compared to the preceding Edition 9.0. This Annex will provide an important
interim ‘translation tool’ allowing Edition 10.0 to be used immediately with the existing Part 2’s of IEC
60598 and IEC 60570. New projects to update all of the IEC 60598 Part 2 standards, and IEC 60570,
to fully align with the new Part 1 structure will commence following the publication of this Edition 10.
Due to the large number of IEC 60598 Part 2 standards parallel updating of these documents, at the
same time as establishing this new Part 1, was considered impractical.
Also introduced into this new Edition 10 are technical changes that have been listed in Annex O
considering all retest requirements introduced by different fragments These comprise of the following
proposals that have already been consulted and developed the input from the national committees:

In considering this CDV national committees are requested to limit their comments to those
associated with the editorial updating of this draft and those associated with the technical
amendment fragments detailed in this introduction. Technical comments to the wider content of
the standard are invited but should be introduced as full proposals to SC34D WG1 LUMEX,
either directly from the national committee or via the national committees’ experts assigned as
members of the working group. These proposals will then be considered in their full context for
updating of IEC 60598-1. The reason for this restriction is to keep the workload of this already
substantial project manageable, and with the possibility to deliver this revision of IEC 60598 -1
within a reasonable time period.
