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.
IEEE Standards documents are developed within IEEE Societies and Standards Coordinating Committees of the
IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. IEEE develops its standards through a consensus
development process, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the
final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of IEEE and serve without compensation. While IEEE
administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus development process, IEEE
does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the information contained in its standards.
Use of IEEE Standards documents is wholly voluntary. IEEE documents are made available for use subject to
important notices and legal disclaimers (see http://standards.ieee.org/IPR/disclaimers.html for more information).
IEC collaborates closely with IEEE in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions 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. The formal decisions of IEEE on technical matters, once consensus within IEEE Societies and
Standards Coordinating Committees has been reached, is determined by a balanced ballot of materially interested
parties who indicate interest in reviewing the proposed standard. Final approval of the IEEE standards document is
given by the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board.
3) IEC/IEEE Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees/IEEE Societies in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content
of IEC/IEEE Publications is accurate, IEC or IEEE 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
(including IEC/IEEE Publications) transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional
publications. Any divergence between any IEC/IE
