IEC/TC 112 - Evaluation and qualification of electrical insulating materials and systems
To prepare International Standards covering methods of evaluation and qualification for electrical and electronic insulating materials, and electrical insulation systems. Horizontal Safety Function: Test methods for resistance to tracking. NOTE: An electrical insulating material has negligibly low electric conductivity, used to separate conducting parts at different electrical potentials. An electrical insulating system is an insulating structure containing one or more electrical insulating materials together with associated conducting parts employed in an electrotechnical device.
Evaluation et qualification des systèmes et matériaux d'isolement électrique
Elaborer les normes internationales portant sur les méthodes d'évaluation et de qualification des matériaux isolants électriques et électroniques et les systèmes d'isolation électrique. Fonction de sécurité horizontale: Méthodes d'essai pour la résistance au cheminement. NOTE: un matériau isolant électrique a une conductibilité électrique négligeable, qui sert à séparer des pièces conductrices à des potentiels électriques différents. Un système d'isolation électrique est une structure isolante comprenant un ou plusieurs matériaux isolants électriques avec des pièces conductrices associées employées dans un appareil électrotechnique.

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.
