This part of IEC 60071 applies to three-phase AC systems having a highest voltage for
equipment above 1 kV. It specifies the procedure for the selection of the rated withstand
voltages for the phase-to-earth, phase-to-phase and longitudinal insulation of the equipment
and the installations of these systems. It also gives the lists of the standard withstand
voltages from which the rated withstand voltages are selected.
This document describes that the selected withstand voltages are associated with the highest
voltage for equipment. This association is for insulation co-ordination purposes only. The
requirements for human safety are not covered by this document.
Although the principles of this document also apply to transmission line insulation, the values
of their withstand voltages can be different from the standard rated withstand voltages.
The apparatus committees are responsible for specifying the rated withstand voltages and the
test procedures suitable for the relevant equipment taking into consideration the
recommendations of this document.
NOTE In IEC 60071-2, all rules for insulation co-ordination given in this document are justified in detail, in
particular the association of the standard rated withstand voltages with the highest voltage for equipment. When
more than one set of standard rated withstand voltages is associated with the same highest voltage for equipment,
guidance is provided for the selection of the most suitable set.
This horizontal standard is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
horizontal standards in the preparation of its publications. The contents of this horizontal
standard will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

This part of IEC 60401 provides a nomenclature of the most frequent surface, bulk and shape
irregularities relevant to cores made of soft ferrites (magnetic oxides). Most irregularities are
graphically exemplified as visual aids. A general recommendation is also given in Annex A for
a consistent scheme for specifying the exact location of the irregularity, combining a general
name for the location with more detailed qualifiers of the specified location. This document
can also be useful as a terminology reference when preparing technical documentation,
irregularity inspection specifications, etc.
This document also presents a method for defining the designation nomenclature for the
major physical attributes of soft ferrite core shapes. The purpose of this document is to
facilitate uniform usage of dimensional characters by manufacturers, specifiers, and users
when describing core dimensions on drawings, in tables, and on catalogue specification
sheets.
