8 AMENDMENT 1
10 FOREWORD
11 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
12 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
13 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
14 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
15 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
16 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
17 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
18 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
19 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
20 agreement between the two organizations.
21 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
22 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
23 interested IEC National Committees.
24 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
25 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
26 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
27 misinterpretation by any end user.
28 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
29 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
30 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
31 the latter.
32 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
33 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
34 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
35 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
36 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
37 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
38 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
39 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
40 Publications.
41 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
42 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
43 9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
44 patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
45 respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s),
46 which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not
47 represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
48 https://patents.iec.ch. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
49 Amendment 1 to IEC 60974-10:2020 has been prepared by IEC technical committee TC 26:
50 Electric welding.
51 This amendment includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the
52 previous edition:
53 a) Alignment with the 7th edition of CISPR11
54 b) Clarification of requirements for portable equipment
55 c) more precise references to standards
56 d) Transformation of Clause 8, Documentation for the purchaser/user, into an informative
57 annex
