IEC 60477-1:2022
(Main)Laboratory resistors - Part 1: Laboratory DC resistors
Laboratory resistors - Part 1: Laboratory DC resistors
IEC 60477-1:2022 applies to resistors intended for use as laboratory DC resistors (hereinafter referred to as "resistors") comprising standard resistors, single or multiple resistors of accuracy Classes 0,000 05 to 10 and single or multi-dial resistors of accuracy Classes 0,000 5 to 10.
This document does not apply to:
1) resistors which are intended for use solely as permanently mounted circuit components,
2) resistors used on alternating current or on pulsed current,
3) active resistors,
4) series resistors and shunts which are considered as accessories of electrical measuring instruments in the relevant IEC document (examples of these are as follows).
IEC 60477-1:2022 cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 60477 published in 1974, and its Amendment 1:1997. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) extended the resistor accuracy classes;
b) deleted the resistor accuracy class expression in parts per million (ppm);
c) excluded the active resistor from the scope of this document;
d) updated the terms and definitions according to new IEC 60050 series;
e) changed the term "resistance decade" to "resistance dial" to cover the multi-dial resistors with other resistance step values;
f) updated the intrinsic error to intrinsic uncertainty according to IEC 60359;
g) added the limits of relative stability for resistors of classes 0,000 05 to 0,01;
h) added the requirements of high voltage resistors;
i) updated the safety symbols and requirements according to the new IEC 61010 series;
j) updated the insulation resistance requirements of resistors;
k) added the requirements of temperature coefficient;
l) updated the temperature requirements for transport and storage of resistors.
Résistances de laboratoire - Partie 1: Résistances de laboratoire à courant continu
L'IEC 60477-1:2022 s’applique aux résistances destinées à être utilisées comme résistances de laboratoire à courant continu (ci-après désignées "résistances"), comprenant des résistances étalons, des résistances simples ou multiples des classes de précision 0,000 05 à 10 et des résistances à commutateurs simples ou multiples des classes de précision 0,000 5 à 10.
Le présent document ne s’applique pas:
1) aux résistances qui sont destinées à être utilisées seulement comme composants, branchées de façon permanente dans des circuits;
2) aux résistances utilisées en courant alternatif ou en courant impulsionnel;
3) aux résistances actives;
4) aux résistances additionnelles et aux shunts qui sont considérés comme accessoires des appareils de mesure électriques dans le document correspondant de l’IEC (en voici des exemples).
L'IEC 60477-1:2022 annule et remplace la première édition de l’IEC 60477 parue en 1974 et son Amendement 1:1997. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
a) extension des classes de précision des résistances;
b) suppression de l’expression classe de précision d’une résistance en parties par million (ppm);
c) exclusion de la résistance active du domaine d’application du présent document;
d) mise à jour des termes et définitions conformément à la nouvelle série IEC 60050;
e) remplacement du terme "résistance à décade" par "commutateur de résistance" pour couvrir les résistances à commutateurs multiples avec d’autres valeurs d’échelon de résistance;
f) mise à jour de l’erreur intrinsèque à l’incertitude intrinsèque conformément à l’IEC 60359;
g) ajout des limites de stabilité relative pour les résistances de classes 0,000 05 à 0,01;
h) ajout des exigences relatives aux résistances haute tension;
i) mise à jour des symboles de sécurité et des exigences conformément à la nouvelle série IEC 61010;
j) mise à jour des exigences de résistance d’isolement d’une résistance;
k) ajout des exigences relatives au coefficient de température;
l) mise à jour des exigences de température pour le transport et le stockage des résistances.

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) Attention is drawn to the p
