IEC/TC 32 - Fuses
To prepare international standards regarding specifications of all types of fuses, with the object of determining: 1. The characteristics which are essential in specifying the conditions for installation and operation of the fuses. 2. The requirements to be met by the fuses and the tests designed to ascertain their compliance with such requirements as well as the procedures to be followed for these tests; 3. Markings. To prepare for these fuses international standards for standard value of: 1. characteristics: rated voltages, currents and breaking capacities; 2. dimensions in connection with the fixing and interchangeability of high-voltage and low-voltage fuses.
Coupe-circuits à fusibles
Preparer des normes internationales concernant les spécifications des fusibles miniatures et des protecteurs thermiques qui sont principalement utilisés pour la protection des circuits dans le matériel électronique. 1. Les caractéristiques essentielles qui définissent les conditions d'installation et de fonctionnement des coupe-circuit. 2. Les conditions auxquelles doivent répondre les appareils ainsi que les essais destinés à vérifier si ces conditions sont réalisées et les méthodes à adopter pour ces essais. 3. Les marques et indications à porter sur les appareils. Pour ces mêmes coupe-circuit, établir des normes internationales concernant les valeurs normales : 1. des caractéristiques : tensions, courants et pouvoirs de coupure nominaux ; 2. des cotes de fixation et d'interchangeabilité des coupe-circuit à haute et à basse tension.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Technical Committee (TC) in ISO 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.
