General Information
Frequently Asked Questions
WG 3 is a Technical Committee within the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is named "TC 121/WG 3". This committee has published 696 standards.
WG 3 develops IEC standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 696 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 62683-2-2:2025 specifies the building information modelling (BIM) with the physical characteristics and technical services of low-voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies to be used mainly for the construction phase of the building and also for delivering data for operation.
This document covers all types of assemblies covered by the IEC 61439 series which can be installed in a building.
Busbar trunking systems defined by IEC 61439-6 are under consideration for a next edition.
These BIM object models, registered in IEC CDD, are intended to supply the process defined by ISO 16739 series.
This document does not cover:
– the build-in components included within the assembly such as switchgear and controlgear,
– safety related control system of machinery,
– the detailed electrical and mechanical configuration of the assembly
– logistic information.

IEC 62683-2:2024 specifies the functional safety and reliability data model descriptions for low‑voltage switchgear and controlgear to be used by engineering tools for the design of safety related control systems according to IEC 62061, IEC 61508-2 and ISO 13849-1, and for dependability analysis of electrotechnical systems.
This dictionary is used to facilitate the exchange between computers of data characterizing low-voltage switchgear and controlgear.
Each property has an unambiguously defined meaning and naming, and where relevant, a defined value list, a defined format and a defined unit.
The data models described in this document are intended to complement the product catalogue data defined by IEC 62683-1.
This document does not cover:
- exchange format such as defined in VDMA 66413,
- explosive atmosphere applications,
- manufacturer specific features.
