IEC 61788-15:2026 describes measurements of the intrinsic surface impedance (Zs) of HTS films at microwave frequencies by a modified two-resonance mode dielectric resonator method. The object of measurement is to obtain the temperature dependence of the intrinsic Zs at the resonant frequency f0. The frequency and thickness range and the measurement resolution for the Zs of HTS films are as follows: - frequency: up to 40 GHz; - film thickness: greater than 50 nm; - measurement resolution: 0,01 mΩ at 10 GHz. It is crucial that the Zs data at the measured frequency, and that scaled to 10 GHz be reported for comparison, assuming the f2 rule for the intrinsic surface resistance, Rs (f < 40 GHz), and the f rule for the intrinsic surface reactance, Xs. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - informative Annex B, combined relative standard uncertainty in the intrinsic surface impedance is added; - the terms, ‘precision and accuracy’, are replaced with uncertainty; - results from a round robin test are added.

IEC 63316:2026 prescribes safeguards, test methods and compliance requirements intended to reduce the risk of electrical shock and fire associated with voltage and current at voltages greater than 60 V DC and 60 V AC. This document applies to equipment ports intended to supply and receive operating power from communications equipment ports using communication wires and cables. It covers particular requirements for circuits that are designed to transfer AC or DC power from a power sourcing equipment (PSE) (3.1.2) to a powered device (PD) (3.1.3), including repeaters, amplifiers, Optical Network Units, Remote DSLAMs, service provider terminating equipment, remote telecommunications cabinets and equipment, and midspan passive equipment connected to the PSE (3.1.2) and PD (3.1.3). The power transfer of equipment ports covered by this document uses non-mains AC voltage or non-mains DC voltage above 60 V DC classified as ES2 according to 5.2.1.2 of IEC 62368-1:2023 or, in some very controlled cases, classified as ES3 according to IEC 62368-1:2023. EXAMPLES - DC power transfer using voltages above 60 V DC but ≤ 120 V DC, classified as ES2; - Some telecommunications networks where the voltage was formerly called TNV-3 (see IEC 62368-1:2023, Table W.3), typically used for line, span or express powering outside North America, Long Range Reverse Power Feeding, HDSLx line powering ISDN, Line Powering Primary Rate E1; - Some North American telecommunications networks between the utility service providers´ PSE (3.1.2) and service providers side of the PD (3.1.3) at the PNI (3.1.8); - For DC power transfer using voltages ≥ 120 V DC at ES3: RFT circuits and the associated telecommunications network equipment and cabling used by communications service providers and communications utilities (for example, line powered E1/T1, HDSLx, SHDSLx, xDSL, repeaters, and telecommunications line powering up or line powering down converters as applicable), Optical Network Units, remote DSLAMs, etc. These RFT circuits are used between the utility service providers PSE (3.1.2) and service providers side of the PD (3.1.3) at the PNI (3.1.8). The customer facing ports of this equipment are at voltage not exceeding 60 V DC and are covered by IEC 62368-1:2023, see Annex A for deployment topologies; - For AC/DC remote powering voltage above ES1 over coaxial cable in circuits used by cable television utility service providers for repeaters, amplifiers, Optical Network Units. The customer facing ports of this equipment are at voltage not exceeding 60 V DC that are covered by IEC 62368-1:2023. NOTE 1 Any communications cable that permits power transfer between communication equipment is considered a communication cable even if communication does not take place. For example, a line powering up or line powering down converters as applicable used to power remote telecommunications equipment, can provide limited communications RFT power and not necessarily any superimposed data or signalling. This document does not cover equipment interfaces within the scope of IEC 63315. NOTE 2 IEC 63315 covers equipment intended to either supply or receive charging, or operating power from ICT interfaces using ICT wires and cables such as PoE, USB, HDMI, etc, or any of these combined. This document does not cover ringing signals that are in the scope of IEC 62368-1 or in the scope of IEC 62949:2017. This document does not cover traditional telecommunications technologies which operate at voltages not exceeding 60 V DC (circuits classified as ES1 according to 5.2.1.1 of IEC 62368-1:2023 and Tabl

This document provides requirements and recommendations related to the concepts required to associate pharmaceutical products or groups of pharmaceutical products with an appropriate set of PhPID(s) in accordance with ISO 11616. Pharmaceutical product identifiers and the related elements are intended to represent pharmaceutical products as defined within a medicinal product by a medicines regulatory authority. While the ISO standards on IDMP can be applied to off-label usage of medicinal products, such applications are currently outside of the scope of this document. Reference to ISO 11238, ISO 11239, ISO 11240, ISO 11615, HL7 V3 messaging standards (HL7 Reference Information Model (RIM)[8], HL7 Common Product Model (CPM)[9] and HL7 V3 Structured Product Labelling (SPL)[10], and HL7 FHIR[11] can be applied for pharmaceutical product information in the context of this document.
