IEC 61225:2019 specifies the performance and the functional characteristics of the low voltage static uninterruptible power supply (SUPS) systems in a nuclear power plant and, for applicable parts, in general for nuclear facilities. An uninterruptible power supply is an electrical equipment which draws electrical energy from a source, stores it and maintains supply in a specified form by means inside the equipment to output terminals. A static uninterruptible power supply (SUPS) has no rotating parts to perform its functions. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2005. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) the principal objective of this edition is to address the requirements on the static uninterruptible power supplies in nuclear power plants; b) in addition to Instrumentation and Control (I&C) power supplies include all static uninterruptible power supplies; c) emphasize that the static uninterruptible power supplies shall protect the connected equipment (loads) from transients on the on-site AC distribution system (the immunity concept); d) in accordance with the defence-in-depth concept, this standard applies to static uninterruptible power supplies for all equipment, not only for equipment important to safety, with a graded approach to verification and validation; e) addition of the requirement that, when batteries are connected in parallel under abnormal operating conditions, they shall be properly protected with isolation devices to avoid any failure that may impair more than one division of the uninterruptible power supply.

IEC 60947-5-2:2019 applies to inductive and capacitive proximity switches that sense the presence of metallic and/or non-metallic objects, ultrasonic proximity switches that sense the presence of sound reflecting objects, photoelectric proximity switches that sense the presence of objects and non-mechanical magnetic proximity switches that sense the presence of objects with a magnetic field. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2007 and Amendment 1:2012. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:  update of the scope; adaptation and update of the construction requirements according to IEC Guide 116 (e.g. material requirements, artificial optical radiation, instruction requirements, hot surface, unattended operation, foreseeable misuse…); modification of the specifications concerning the sensing range and operating distance; new definitions for photoelectric proximity switch type D with background suppression; integration of the requirements and test procedures of photoelectric proximity switch type D with background suppression; update of EMC requirements in Table 9 and Table 10; integration of environmental information requirements and environmental condition by referencing Annexes O, W and Q of IEC 60947-1:2007, IEC 60947-1:2007/AMD1:2010 and IEC 60947-1:2007/AMD2:2014; modification of impulse withstand voltage test (5.3.1.3, 9.3.3.4.5); modification of the references in the (normative) standard body to the (informative) Annex A; major update of Annex A (definitions update, new dimensions and shapes); update of C.9.1.1; update of Annex D in order to consider new connector types and normative references; update of Annex F (additional symbols for photoelectric proximity switches).
