FIXED RESISTORS FOR USE IN ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT –

Part 2-10: Blank detail specification: Low-power film resistors with leads
for through-hole assembly on circuit boards (THT), for general electronic
equipment, classification level G

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 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.
IEC 60115‑2‑10 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 40: Capacitors and resistors
for electronic equipment. It is an International Standard.
This first edition cancels and replaces IEC 60115-2-1:1982. This edition constitutes a technical
revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) it employs the product classification based on application requirements as defined in the
generic specification IEC 60115‑1:2020;
b) it permits the specification of additional dimensional requirements concerning the
eccentricity of termination wires and the coating extending onto wires;
c) it provides for a tabulated presentation of resistance ranges in relationship to the
temperature coefficient and the tolerance;

– 6 – IEC 60115-2-10:2023 © IEC 2023
d) it supports solderability testing for both traditional lead-bearing soldering and up-to-date
lead-free soldering, as required;
e) it introduces a test for the specimens’ robustness to electrostatic discharge;
f) it introduces a test for the specimens’ resistance to solvents;
g) it introduces a test for the flammability of the specimens;
h) it employs consistent stability requirements grouped in stability classes;
i) it supports the provision of detailed visual acceptance criteria;
j) it includes the requirement for a visual examination of the primary and proximity packaging;
k) it provides the correlated test schedules for a qualification approval and for subsequent
quality conformance inspections side by side;
l) it employs quality assessment procedures which meet the requirements of a zero-defect
approach, which evades the use of historic AQL levels and the permission of non-conforming
specimens in test groups;
m) it provides for the inclusion of specific visual acceptance criteria, to be applied in addition
to those given in Annex B of the sectional specification IEC 60115-2:2023;
n) it provides for the optional coverage of 0 Ω resistors (jumpers) within the scope of the drafted
detail specification;
o) furthermore, it employs a new document structure, for which a transition guidance is
provided in Annex X.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
Draft Report on voting
40/2944/CDV 40/3002/RVC
Full information on the voting for its approval can be found in the report on voting indicated in
the above table.
The language used for the development of this International Standard is English.
A list of all parts in the IEC 60115 series, published under the general title Fixed resistors for
use in electronic equipment, can be found on the IEC website.
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.
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,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

0 Introduction to the template provided by this blank detail specification
COMMENT This introduction is not intended to be copied into the drafted detail specification. Therefore, it is
positioned in front of the conventional document structure and clause numbering range. It nevertheless contains
normative requirements to the drafted detail specification.
0.1 Scope of this blank detail specification
This part of IEC 60115‑2 is applicable to the drafting of detail specifications for low-power film
resistors with leads, classified to level G, based on the definition of the product classification
levels in IEC 60115‑1:2020, 3.4.
Another part of IEC 60115‑2 provides a separate blank detail specification for the drafting of
detail specifications for low-power film resistors with leads, classified to level P and to level R.
Yet other parts of IEC 60115‑2 may be issued to provide blank detail specifications for the
drafting of detail specifications for low-power film resistors with leads, of other technologies or
of other classification levels.
0.2 Function of this blank detail specification
A blank detail specification is a supplementary document to the sectional specification and
contains requirements for style, layout and minimum contents of detail specifications. Detail
specifications not complying with these requirements shall not be accepted as being in
accordance with IEC specifications nor shall they be described as such.
Detail specifications complying with the requirements of this blank detail specification are a
legitimate basis for the quality assessment of leaded fixed low-power film resistors under an
adequate quality assessment system, e.g. the IEC Quality Assessment System for Electronic
Components (IECQ System), whereas the plain blank detail specification is not a suitable basis.
The detail specification should contain a table of contents prior the first page of the actual
specification.
In the preparation of the detail specification, the content of IEC 60115-2:2023, 8.2 shall be
taken into account. The detail specification should be written by using the preferred values
given in IEC 60115‑2.
Units, graphical symbols and letter symbols shall, whenever possible, be taken from those
specified in the following standards:
– IEC 60027-1, Letter symbols to be used in electrical technology – Part 1: General
– IEC 60617, Graphical symbols for diagrams
– IEC 80000 (all parts), Quantities and units
– ISO 80000 (all parts), Quantities and units
This blank detail specification uses for its purpose two different kinds of notes:
– NOTE For notes which give additional information intended to assist the
understanding or use of the resulting document and therefore shall be copied
as NOTE into the drafted detail specification. As outlined in the ISO/IEC
directives, these notes shall not contain any requirement, instruction,
recommendation or permission.
– COMMENT For editorial notes which are intended to aid and direct the specification
writer and therefore shall not be copied into the drafted detail specification.
In order to accomplish their function, editorial notes require the use of
instructions, recommendations and permissions addressed to the writer of
the detail specification.
– 8 – IEC 60115-2-10:2023 © IEC 2023
0.3 Identification of the detail specification and the resistor
The first page of the detail specification should have a layout starting with a title block as
recommended on the following page.
The numbers in square brackets are editorial references, which are not intended to be copied
into the drafted detail specification, and which correspond to the following information on the
contents which shall be inserted in the indicated fields.

The body diameter of the resistor D shall be gauged as specified in IEC 60294 (see IEC 60115-2:2023, 5.3.11).
c
The body length of the resistor L shall be gauged and measured in accordance with IEC 60294 (see IEC 60115-
2:2023, 5.3.11 and 5.3.12).
d
Nominal diameter of the lead wires d, with permissible tolerances in accordance with IEC 60301.
e
The minimum lead length l for products in tape packaging in accordance with IEC 60286-1 applies to the
min
length of the free sections of lead wire between the resistor body and each tape. For untaped resistors, it
applies to the length of each lead wire.

COMMENT 3 See IEC 60115-2:2023, 8.2.2.
COMMENT 4 The metric style designation is the normative designation used in all other places throughout this
detail specification, see IEC 60115-2:2023, 4.2.1. Column X is an optional column for additional style information,
e.g. for traditional alphabetic designations, which generally need to be marked with a respective footnote, e.g.
"Historical style code, for information only".

COMMENT 5 The dimensions for body diameter D, body length L, lead wire diameter d and minimum free lead
length l are given as examples based on the requirements for axial leaded resistors with cylindrical bodies and
min
need to correspond to the dimensions identified in Figure 1. The choice of specified dimensions needs to be adapted
to the actual requirements of the drafted detail specification and the shape of products covered therein. The
dimensions may be given in the format of nominal values plus tolerance, or by stating permissible minimum and
maximum values. Columns for additional dimensions may be inserted as required.
COMMENT 6 Column Y represents one or more optional column(s) for the specification of an additional dimension,
e.g. the permissible lead eccentricity and/or the permissible length of excessive coating on the leads, as required.
COMMENT 7 The specified minimum lead length should take account of the variety of inside tape spacing specified
as dimension B by IEC 60286-1, plus the permissible window for the lateral resistor body location, given there as
dimension K.
COMMENT 8 The component mass is not intended to be verified by an inspection procedure. It should be given as
the maximum mass of a single component and should be marked with a respective footnote as "For information only".
The wire terminations of the resistor shall emerge concentrically from the end faces of the
resistor body; see IEC 60115-2:2023, 4.2.4 with IEC 60115-2:2023, Figure 6. The real
eccentricity e, as shown in below Figure 2, shall not exceed the limit given in Table 1. For
gauging of the lead eccentricity, the effective eccentricity e’ should be used; see IEC 60115-
2:2023, 4.2.4.
Figure 2 – Lead eccentricity of the wire terminations
COMMENT 9 The above paragraph and figure are optional and given as an example for the specification of a
permissible lead eccentricity. If this specification is used in the drafted detail specification, a suitable method for
gauging and/or measuring of the lead eccentricity needs to be described, e.g. in the respective subclauses of
Clause 5. Alternatively, the deletion of this paragraph and figure will result in the need to update the numbering of
subsequent figures accordingly.
The resistor shall be properly coated in order to provide a suitable protection against
mechanical, electrical and climatic influences, e.g. by means of a conformal lacquer coating. It
is typical for such coating to also cover the end faces of the resistor body, which can lead for
some amount of excessive coating to spread onto the leads; see IEC 60115-2:2023, 4.2.2 with
IEC 60115-2:2023, Figure 4. The length of excessive coating c, as shown in below Figure 3,
shall not exceed the limit given in Table 1.

COMMENT 10 The above paragraph and figure are optional and given as an example for the specification of a
permissible length of excessive coating on the wire terminations. If this specification is used in the drafted detail
specification, a suitable method for gauging and/or measuring of the len
