General Information
Frequently Asked Questions
MT 20 is a Technical Committee within the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is named "TC 33/MT 20". This committee has published 25 standards.
MT 20 develops IEC standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 25 published standards from this technical committee.
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is the world's leading organization for the preparation and publication of international standards for electrical, electronic, and related technologies. Founded in 1906, the IEC provides a global platform for companies, industries, and governments to meet, discuss, and develop the international standards they require.
A Technical Committee (TC) in IEC is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
IEC 60358-1:2025 is available as IEC 60358-1:2025 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
IEC 60358-1:2025 This part of IEC 60358 applies to:
Coupling capacitors and capacitor dividers, with rated voltage > 1 000 V, connected line to ground with the low-voltage terminal either permanently earthed or connected to devices, for applications listed hereunder and other similar uses.
This document serves as a basic standard for the coupling capacitors and capacitor dividers.

IEC 60358-4:2018 applies to DC or AC single-phase capacitor-dividers connected between line and ground used for manufacturing Voltage Transformers as well as for other applications. IEC 60358-4:2018 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60358-1 and its amendments. IEC 60358-4:2018 was established on the basis of the IEC 60358-1:2012. IEC 60358-4:2018 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60358-1:2012. This standard cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60358 (1990), and constitutes a technical revision.

IEC 60358-3:2013 applies to AC or DC single-phase coupling capacitor, with rated voltage higher than 1 000 V, connected line to ground with the low voltage terminal either permanently earthed or connected to a tuning device for harmonic-filters applications. It replaces Clause 1 of IEC 60358-1:2012. Keywords: AC or DC single-phase coupling capacitor
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60358-1:2012.

IEC 60358-2:2013 applies to AC or DC single-phase coupling capacitors, with rated voltage > 1 000 V, connected between line and ground with a low voltage terminal either permanently earthed or connected to a device for power line carrier-frequency (PLC) applications at frequencies from 30 kHz to 500 kHz or similar applications (DC or AC) at power frequencies from 15 Hz to 60 Hz. The transmission requirements for coupling devices for power line carrier (PLC) systems are defined in IEC 60481. Keywords: AC or DC single-phase coupling capacitors, power line carrier-frequency (PLC). This standard cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60358 (1990), and constitutes a technical revision.

IEC 60358-1:2012 applies to capacitors, with rated voltage >1 000 V, connected line to ground with the low voltage terminal either permanently earthed or connected to devices, for applications listed hereunder and other similar uses. This standard serves as basic standard for the coupling capacitor, the different parts of this standard will present the supplementary specifications and tests, for example IEC 60358-2, IEC 60358-3 or IEC 60358-4. This standard cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60358 (1990), and constitutes a technical revision. This edition of IEC 60358-1 includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the former edition of IEC 60358:
- the standard has been split into different parts; Part 1 is the general rules and Parts 2, 3, 4 will be specific to the PLC, filters and dividers applications.
- the routine and type test have been reviewed and are presented in Figure 2.
Keywords: coupling capacitor, capacitor dividers The contents of the corrigendum of July 2013 have been included in this copy.
