INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION ____________
ELECTROMECHANICAL ELEMENTARY RELAYS –
Part 7: Test and measurement procedures
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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 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 possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 61810-7 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 94: All-or-nothing electrical relays. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1997. This second edition constitutes a technical revision. This new edition has been revised in order to – update all normative references, – adapt its contents to the newest issues of the other parts of this series of basic relay standards (IEC 61810-1 and IEC 61810-2), – establish coherence with other IEC standards (for example of the IEC 60068-2 series), – improve test and measurement procedures where appropriate, – delete those tests no longer used in case of elementary relays for industrial application.

The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 94/226/FDIS 94/231/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 2. IEC 61810 consists of the following parts, under the general title Electromechanical elementary relays: Part 1: General and safety requirements Part 2: Reliability Part 7: Test and measurement procedures The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed; • withdrawn; • replaced by a revised edition, or • amended.
A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date.

ELECTROMECHANICAL ELEMENTARY RELAYS –
Part 7: Test and measurement procedures
1 Scope This part of IEC 61810 states the test and measurement procedures for electromechanical elementary relays. It covers basic considerations which are, in general, common to all types of electromechanical elementary relays. Supplementary requirements may be necessitated by specific designs or application. The test and measurement procedures of this standard are described as individual provisions covering a specific requirement. When combining them in a test programme, care must be taken (for example by suitable grouping of tested relays) to ensure that preceding tests do not devalue subsequent ones.
Where in this standard the term “specified” is used, this means a prescription in the appropriate documentation for the relay, for example manufacturer’s data sheet, test specification, customer detail specification. For application within the IECQ system such prescriptions are contained in the detail specification as defined in Clause A.7 of QC 001001. NOTE 1 To improve the readability of this standard, the term “relay” is generally used in place of “electromechanical elementary relay”. NOTE 2 Requirements and tests related to the type testing of electromechanical elementary relays are contained in IEC 61810-1. For that purpose, the generally described test and measurement procedures of this standard have been prescribed in a more restricted and stringent form in IEC 61810-1. NOTE 3 Standards covering relays subjected to quality assessment in accordance with IECQ are compiled in the IEC 61811 series of publications. 2 Normative references
