EN-IEC 62321-3-1 describes the screening analysis of five substances, specifically lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), total chromium (Cr) and total bromine (Br) in uniform materials found in electrotechnical products, using the analytical technique of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry. It is applicable to polymers, metals and ceramic materials. The test method may be applied to raw materials, individual materials taken from products and “homogenized” mixtures of more than one material. Screening of a sample is performed using any type of XRF spectrometer, provided it has the performance characteristics specified in this test method. Not all types of XRF spectrometers are suitable for all sizes and shapes of sample. Care should be taken to select the appropriate spectrometer design for the task concerned.

EN-IEC 62321-2 provides strategies of sampling along with the mechanical preparation of samples from electrotechnical products, electronic assemblies and electronic components. These samples can be used for analytical testing to determine the levels of certain substances as described in the test methods in other parts of IEC 62321. Restrictions for substances will vary between geographic regions and from time to time. This Standard describes a generic process for obtaining and preparing samples prior to the determination of any substance which are under concern. This standard does not provide: - full guidance on each and every product that could be classified as electrotechnical equipment. Since there is a huge variety of electrotechnical components, with various structures and processes, along with the continuous innovations in the industry, it is unrealistic to attempt to provide procedures for the disjointment of every type of component; - guidance regarding other routes to gather additional information on certain substances in a product, although the information collected has relevance to the sampling strategies in this standard; - safe disassembly and mechanical disjointment instructions related to electrotechnical products (e.g. mercury-containing switches) and the recycling industry (e.g. how to handle CRTs or the safe removal of batteries). See IEC 62554 [2] for the disjointment and mechanial sample preparation of mercury-containing fluorescent lamps; - the definition of a “unit” as the sample; - sampling procedures for packaging and packaging materials; - analytical procedures to measure the levels of certain substances. This is covered by other standards (for example other parts of IEC 62321), which are referred to as the "test standard" in this standard; - guidelines for assessment of compliance.

EN-IEC 62321-4 describes test methods for mercury in polymers, metals and electronics by CV-AAS, CV-AFS, ICP-OES and ICP-MS. This standard specifies the determination of the levels of mercury (Hg) contained in electrotechnical products. These materials are polymers, metals and electronics (e.g. printed wiring boards, cold cathode fluorescent lamps, mercury switches). Batteries containing Hg should be handled as described in [1]1. The interlaboratory study has only evaluated these test methods for plastics, other matrices were not covered. This standard refers to the sample as the object to be processed and measured. What the sample is or how to get to the sample is defined by the entity carrying out the tests. Further guidance on obtaining representative samples from finished electronic products to be tested for levels of regulated substances may be found in IEC 62321-2. It is noted that the selection and/or determination of the sample may affect the interpretation of the test results. This standard describes the use of four methods, namely CV-AAS (cold vapour atomic absorption spectrometry), CV-AFS (cold vapour atomic fluorescence spectrometry) ICP-OES (inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry), and ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) as well as several procedures for preparing the sample solution from which the most appropriate method of analysis can be selected by experts. Analysis by CV-AAS, CV-AFS, ICP-OES and ICP-MS allows the determination of the target element, mercury, with high precision (uncertainty in the low per cent range) and/or high sensitivity (down to the μg/kg level). The test procedures described in this standard are intended to provide the highest level of accuracy and precision for concentrations of mercury in the range from 4 mg/kg to 1 000 mg/kg. The procedures are not limited for higher concentrations. For direct analysis, using thermal decomposition-gold amalgamation in conjunction with CV-AAS (TD(G)-AAS) can be also applied for mercury analysis without sample digestion, although the detection limits are higher than other methods due to the reduced sample size.

This part of IEC 62321 refers to the sample as the object to be processed and measured. The nature of the sample and the manner in which it is acquired is defined by the entity carrying out the tests and not by this standard. It is noted that the selection of the sample may affect the interpretation of the test results. While this standard provides guidance on the disassembly procedure employed for obtaining a sample, it does not determine or specify:
• the level of the disassembly procedure required for obtaining a sample;
• the definition of a “unit” or “homogenous material” as the sample;
• conformity assessment procedures.
NOTE Further guidance on assessment procedures may be found in IEC/TR 62476 [2].

This International Standard covers personal computing products. It applies to desktop and notebook computers as defined in 4.1 that are marketed as final products and that are hereafter referred to as the equipment under test (EUT) or product. This standard specifies: - a test procedure to enable the measurement of the power and/or energy consumption in each of the EUT's power modes; - formulas for calculating the typical energy consumption (TEC) for a given period (normally annual); - a majority profile that should be used with this standard which enables conversion of average power into energy within the TEC formulas; - a system of categorisation enabling like for like comparisons of energy consumption between EUTs; - a pre-defined format for the presentation of results. This standard does not set any pass/fail criteria for the EUTs. Users of the test results should define such criteria.

This International Standard specifies sample preparation methods for determining mercury levels in new tubular fluorescent lamps (including single capped, double capped, self-ballasted and CCFL for backlighting) containing 0,1 mg mercury or more. The intended resolution of the methods described in this standard is of the order of 5 %. Mercury level measurement of spent lamps is excluded, as during lamp operation, mercury gradually diffuses into the glass wall and reacts with the glass materials. The test method of this standard does not recover mercury that is diffused into or reacted with or otherwise incorporated irreversibly with the glass wall of discharge tubes. This standard does not contain information on measurement. Measurement is specified in IEC 62321.

This European Standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption, and the reporting of results, for external power supplies. This standard is applicable to external power supplies with a rated input voltage within the range 100 V ac to 250 V ac having a single output with a rated output power not exceeding 250 W and a rated output voltage not exceeding 230 V a.c. or 325 V d.c. The output voltage may be either at a fixed voltage, or at a voltage which is user selectable, or at a voltage that is automatically selectable by the external power supply so as to be compatible with one or more product-loads.

This European Standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption and the reporting of the results for a range of electrical and electronic household and office equipment, hereafter referred to as products.
This standard
−addresses issues associated with measuring electrical power, in particular low power (in the order of a few Watts or less), consumed by mains powered products,
−describes in detail the requirements for testing single phase products with a rated input voltage in the range of 100 V a.c. to 250 V a.c. but it may, with some adaptations, also be used with three phase products,
−may also be of assistance in determining the energy efficiency of products in conjunction with other, more specific, product standards.
The value of energy consumed will depend on the operating mode of the product under test, for instance whether the equipment is in an off mode, in a standby mode or in an active mode. This standard does not specify these modes and so it is not possible to use this standard on its own. Instead, it provides a method of measurement with a variety of modes which are defined elsewhere.
This standard does not
−specify safety requirements,
−specify minimum performance requirements,
−set maximum limits on power or energy consumption,
−contain limit values or procedures for verifying compliance with regulatory requirements.
NOTE Z1 This standard has been written in particular to support EC Commission Regulation n° 1275/2008 for the measurement of off mode and standby mode power consumption. This standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption in standby mode(s) and other low power modes (off mode), as applicable.
NOTE Z2 This standard is applicable to electrical products with a rated input voltage of 230 V a.c. for single phase products and 400 V a.c. for three phase products.
NOTE Z3 The measurement of energy consumption and performance of products during intended use are generally specified in more specific product standards and are not covered by this standard.
NOTE Z4 The term “products” in this standard includes household appliances or information technology products, consumer electronics, audio, video and multimedia systems, however the measurement methodology could be applied to other products.
NOTE Z5 Where this standard is referenced by more specific standards or procedures, these should define and name the relevant conditions to which this test procedure is applied.

This International Standard specifies performance tests, designations, markings, dimensions and other requirements for secondary lithium single cells and batteries for portable applications. The objective of this standard is to provide the purchasers and users of secondary lithium cells and batteries with a set of criteria with which they can judge the performance of secondary lithium cells and batteries offered by various manufacturers. This standard defines a minimum required level of performance and a standardized methodology by which testing is performed and the results of this testing reported to the user. Hence, users will be able to establish the viability of commercially available cells and batteries via the declared specification and thus be able to select the cell or battery best suited for their intended application. This standard covers secondary lithium cells and batteries with a range of chemistries. Each electrochemical couple has a characteristic voltage range over which it releases its electrical capacity, a characteristic nominal voltage and a characteristic end-of-discharge voltage during discharge. Users of secondary lithium cells and batteries are requested to consult the manufacturer for advice. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: 7.6 Endurance in cycles: addition of an accelerated test procedure.

This International Standard specifies procedures for measuring and reporting the noise emission of information technology and telecommunications equipment. The basic emission quantity is the A-weighted sound power level which may be used for comparing equipment of the same type but from different manufacturers, or for comparing different equipment. Three basic noise emission standards for determination of the sound power levels are specified in this International Standard in order to avoid undue restriction on existing facilities and experience. ISO 3741 specifies comparison measurements in a reverberation test room; ISO 3744 and ISO 3745 specify measurements in an essentially free field over a reflecting plane. Any one of these three basic noise emission standards can be selected and used exclusively in accordance with this International Standard when determining sound power levels of a machine. The A-weighted sound power level is supplemented by the A-weighted emission sound pressure level determined at the operator position(s) or the bystander positions, based on basic noise emission standard ISO 11201. This sound pressure level is not a worker's immission rating level, but it can assist in identifying any potential problems that could cause annoyance, activity interference, or hearing damage to operators and bystanders. Methods for determination of whether the noise emission includes prominent discrete tones or is impulsive in character are specified in Annexes D and E, respectively. This International Standard is suitable for type tests and provides methods for manufacturers and testing laboratories to obtain comparable results. The methods specified in this International Standard allow the determination of noise emission levels for a functional unit (see 3.1.4) tested individually. The procedures apply to equipment which emits broad-band noise, narrow-band noise and noise which contains discrete-frequency components, or impulsive noise. The sound power and emission sound pressure levels obtained can serve noise emission declaration and comparison purposes (see ISO 9296). If sound power levels obtained are determined for a number of functional units of the same production series, they can be used to determine a statistical value for that production series (see ISO 9296).
