IEC 63208:2025 This document applies to the main functions of switchgear and controlgear and their assemblies, called equipment, in the context of operational technology (OT 3.1.34). It is applicable to equipment with wired or wireless data communication means and their physical accessibility, within their limits of environmental conditions. It is intended to achieve the appropriate physical and cybersecurity mitigation against vulnerabilities to security threats. This document provides requirements on the appropriate: – security risk assessment to be developed including the attack levels, the typical threats, the impact assessment and the relationship with safety; – levels of exposure of the communication interface and the determination of the equipment security level; – assessment of the exposure level of the communication interfaces; – assignment of the required security measures for the equipment; – countermeasures for the physical access and the environment derived from ISO/IEC 27001; – countermeasures referring to IEC 62443-4-2 with their criteria of applicability; – user instructions for installation, operation and maintenance; – conformance verification and testing, and – security protection profiles by family of equipment (Annex E to Annex I). In particular, it focuses on potential vulnerabilities to threats resulting in: – unintended operation, which can lead to hazardous situations; – unavailability of the protective functions (overcurrent, earth fault, etc.); – other degradation of main function. It also provides guidance on the cybersecurity management with the: – roles and responsibilities (Table 4); – typical architectures (Annex A); – use cases (Annex B); – development methods (Annex C); – recommendations to be provided to users and for integration into an assembly (Annex D); – bridging references to cybersecurity management systems (Annex K). This document does not cover security requirements for: – information technology (IT); – industrial automation and control systems (IACS), engineering workstations and their software applications; – critical infrastructure or energy management systems; – network device (communication network switch or virtual private network terminator), or – data confidentiality other than for critical security parameters; – design lifecycle management. For this aspect, see IEC 62443-4-1, ISO/IEC 27001 or other security lifecycle management standards.

IEC 61496-3:2025 specifies additional requirements for the design, construction and testing of non‑contact electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE) designed specifically to detect persons or parts of persons as part of a safety-related system, employing active opto-electronic protective devices responsive to diffuse reflection (AOPDDRs) for the sensing function. Special attention is directed to requirements which ensure that an appropriate safety-related performance is achieved. An ESPE can include optional safety-related functions, the requirements for which are given both in Annex A of this document and in Annex A of IEC 61496‑1:2020. NOTE "Non-contact" means that physical contact is not required for sensing. This document does not specify the dimensions or configurations of the detection zone and its disposition in relation to hazardous parts for any particular application, nor what constitutes a hazardous state of any machine. It is restricted to the functioning of the ESPE and how it interfaces with the machine. AOPDDRs are devices that have either - one or more detection zone(s) specified in two dimensions (AOPDDR-2D), or - one or more detection zone(s) specified in three dimensions (AOPDDR-3D) wherein radiation in the near infrared range is emitted by an emitting element(s). When the emitted radiation impinges on an object (for example, a person or part of a person), a portion of the emitted radiation is reflected to a receiving element(s) by diffuse reflection. This reflection is used to determine the position of the object. Opto-electronic devices that perform only a single one-dimensional spot-like distance measure­ment, for example, optical proximity switches, are not covered by this document. This document is limited to ESPE that do not require human intervention for detection. It is limited to ESPE that detect objects entering into or being present in a detection zone(s). This document does not address those aspects required for complex classification or differentiation of the object detected. This document does not address requirements and tests for outdoor application. Excluded from this document are AOPDDRs employing radiation with the peak of wavelength outside the range 820 nm to 1 100 nm, and those employing radiation other than that generated by the AOPDDR itself. For sensing devices that employ radiation of wavelengths outside this range, this document can be used as a guide. This document is relevant for AOPDDRs having a minimum detectable object size in the range from 30 mm to 200 mm. This document can be relevant to applications other than those for the protection of persons, for example, for the protection of machinery or products from mechanical damage. In those applications, different requirements can be appropriate, for example when the materials that are recognized by the sensing function have different properties from those of persons and their clothing. This document does not deal with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) emission requirements. 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: a) some requirement clauses and test procedures have been adapted or removed because they have been consolidated in IEC 61496-1:2020 (e.g. 5.4.6.2 Light sources and Clause A.9); b) change of the minimum probability of detection and fault detection requirements for Type 2 AOPDDR;
