Frequently Asked Questions
MT 17 is a Technical Committee within the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is named "TC 23/SC 23A/MT 17". This committee has published 53 standards.
MT 17 develops IEC standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 53 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 62275:2022 specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices as a means used for managing or securing the wiring systems in electrical installations. Cable ties and associated fixing devices can also be suitable for other applications, such as support of wiring systems, and where so used, additional requirements can apply. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- scope clarification,
- new definitions,
- deletion of the exception for the stabilization of the moisture content,
- possibility to carry out tensile strength tests with dead weights,
- differentiation of rubber and acrylic adhesive fixings,
- clarification for mechanical testing of integral devices,
- clarifications on Table 6,
- clarifications in 9.1,
- the minimum installation temperature test for cable ties is carried out only when the declared minimum temperature is lower than 0 °C,
- a requirement that metallic cable ties be classified according to 6.2.3,
- definition of colours to be tested for contribution to fire,
- addition of a "some countries" note in Clause 10,
- clarification of the mounting of fixing devices in the resistance to ultraviolet light test,
- clarification on the testing of integral devices in the resistance to ultraviolet light test.

IEC 62275:2013 specifies requirements for metallic, non-metallic and composite cable ties and their associated fixing devices used for the management and support of wiring systems in electrical installations. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006 and constitutes a technical revision. It incorporates additional tables, an annex and figures as well as revisions to such that appeared in the first edition. In places the text has been substantially altered including:
- revised and updated normative references,
- integral cable ties and fixing devices,
- change in the range of the diameter of the test mandrel,
- general notes on tests,
- mechanical properties and associated tests as well as tests for resistance to ultraviolet light and corrosion.
