TA 8 - Multimedia home systems and applications for end-user network
To develop International Standards for the requirements, functions and protocols for multimedia home systems and applications, as well as specifications addressing total system connected in end-user networks. This includes the system interface, the application programming interface, the modeling for system structure, system functionality specifications and interface specifications to cloud server. End-user networks include all personal networks, e.g., home networks, vehicular networks and other networks controlled by an individual for audio, video and multimedia applications.

Préparer et coordonner, en coopération avec les autres TC/SC, le développement de normes internationales et d’autres livrables en insistant sur les aspects système généraux des systèmes d'alimentation électrique et l’équilibre acceptable entre coût et qualité pour les utilisateurs de l’énergie électrique. Le système d’alimentation électrique comprend les réseaux de transmission et de distribution, les générateurs et charges ainsi que leurs interfaces au réseau. Ce domaine d’application comprend, sans s’y limiter, la normalisation pour : - La terminologie pour le secteur de la fourniture d’électricité, - Les charactéristiques de l’énergie fournie par les réseaux publics, - La gestion du réseau du point de vue système, - La connexion des consommateurs (générateurs et charges) et l’intégration au réseau, - Les conception et gestion des systèmes de fourniture d’électricité décentralisée, comme les microgrids, les systèmes pour l’électrification rurale. Tout en s’appuyant sur une communication et un échange de données efficaces et sécurisés, le domaine d’application du TC 8 ne comprend pas la normalisation de la communication avec les appareils et l’équipement connecté au réseau électrique, ou les infrastructures de communication au service du réseau électrique. Le TC 8 est responsable de la maintenance des publications de base (normes horizontales) sur les tensions, courants et fréquences normalisés, assurant ainsi la cohérence des publications IEC dans ces domaines. Le TC 8 coopère également avec plusieurs organisations actives dans le domaine de la fourniture d’électricité comme le CIGRE, le CIRED, l’IEEE, l’AFSEC, l’IEA.

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.
Specifies an application program interface (API) for reading and writing the files which conform to the Universal Disk Format (UDF) specification revision 2.00 developed by the Optical Storage Technology Association (OSTA) and its security extension.

IEC 60038:2009 specifies standard voltage values which are intended to serve as preferential values for the nominal voltage of electrical supply systems, and as reference values for equipment and system design. This seventh edition supersedes the sixth edition (1993), its Amendment 1 (1994) and its Amendment 2 (1997). It constitutes a technical revision. The significant technical changes are:
- the addition of the values of 230 V (50 Hz) and 230/400 V (60 Hz) to Table 1;
- the replacement of the utilization voltage range at LV by a reference to the relevant standard and an informative annex;
- the addition of the value of 30 kV to Table 3;
- the replacement of the value of 1 050 kV by 1 100 kV in Table 5.
It has the status of a horizontal standard in accordance with IEC Guide 108.

This technical report IEC/TR 62510:2008(E) outlines the way in which electricity is now described as a product. Particularly, in Europe and several other areas, for example Brazil and Argentina, as well as in some states in the United States of America. It is, however, rather a unique product because of its intangible and transient nature. Strictly, it is a product that exists only for an instant at a given point of delivery, comes into existence at the same instant at which it is being used and is replaced immediately by a new product with rather different characteristics. Its characteristics are different at each separate point of delivery. Moreover, it is a product whose quality depends not only on the elements that go into its production, but also in the way in which it is being used at any instant by the equipment of multiple users.

This Publicly Available Specification (PAS) defines a methodology for power system domain experts to determine and describe their user requirements for automation systems, based on their utility business needs. This methodology was originally developed as part of the IntelliGrid Architecture developed by the Electrical Power Research Institute (EPRI), as a means to implement the 'IntelliGrid vision' of the automated, self-healing, and efficient power system of the future.
