TC 98 - Electrical insulation systems (EIS)
Standardization of Electrical Insulation Systems (EIS) evaluations: - to formulate principles of test methods to evaluate the condition and performance of EIS, including relevant environmental and safety aspects, - to develop standards of broad application for single- and multi-factor ageing tests and methods of evaluation of EIS, - to provide uniform principles to develop cost effective means of qualifying EIS, - in co-operation with or at the request of product committees to develop guidance and methods for the functional testing, evaluation and qualification, according to the needs of the product committee, of EIS for specific applications. NOTE: An EIS is an insulating structure containing one or more Electrical Insulating Materials (EIMs) together with associated conducting parts employed in an electrotechnical device.
Systèmes d'isolation électrique (SIE)
Normalisation de l'évaluation des Systèmes d'Isolation Electrique (SIE): - formuler les principes des méthodes d'essai qui servent à évaluer l'état et l'aptitude à la fonction des SIE, y compris les aspects relevant de l'environnement et de la sécurité, - développer des normes d'application large concernant les essais de vieillissement à un ou plusieurs facteurs et les méthodes d'évaluation des SIE, - établir des principes uniformisés permettant de développer les moyens économiques propres à la qualification des SIE, - en collaboration avec les comités de produits ou sur leur demande, développer des directives et des méthodes pour effectuer les essais fonctionnels, l'évaluation et la qualification de SIE prévus pour des applications spécifiques en fonction des besoins des comités de produits. NOTE: Un SIE est une structure d'isolation comprenant un ou plusieurs matériaux d'isolement électrique (MIE) associée à des parties conductrices utilisées dans un appareil électrique.

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.
