The assessment is made by evaluating the change of a specified property of the surface
insulation coating due to a heat treatment at a specified temperature up to 850 °C for a specified
duration time up to 2 500 h. The specified property is measured at an ambient temperature of
(23 ± 5) °C both without heat treatment and after heat treatment.
This document is applicable to the following properties of surface insulation coatings:
– adhesion;
– surface insulation resistance;
– stacking factor.
This document is not applicable to other properties of surface insulation coatings, e.g. welding
properties, or to other effects, e.g. discoloration and off-gassing, which can be caused by
exposure to elevated temperatures.
NOTE Some of the tests take a very long time to perform and therefore they are often not appropriate for acceptance
tests of material supplied on a specific order.

This part of IEC 60216 specifies the experimental and calculation procedures for deriving the thermal endurance characteristics, temperature index (TI) and relative temperature index (RTI) of an electrical insulating material (EIM) using the "fixed time frame method (FTFM)".
In this protocol, the ageing takes place for a small number of fixed times, using the appropriate number of ageing temperatures throughout each time, the properties of the specimens being measured at the end of the relevant time interval. This differs from the procedure of IEC 60216-1, where ageing is conducted at a small number of fixed temperatures, property measurement taking place after ageing times dependent on the progress of ageing.
The diagnostic tests employed in the fixed time frame method are restricted to destructive tests. The method has not yet been applied to non-destructive or proof test procedures.
Both the TI and the RTI determined according to the FTFM protocol are derived from experimental data obtained in accordance with the instructions of IEC 60216-1 and IEC 60216-2 as modified in this part of IEC 60216. The calculation procedures and statistical tests are modified from those of IEC 60216-3 and IEC 60216-5.

IEC 60216-6:2022 is available as IEC 60216-6:2022 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
IEC 60216-6:2022 specifies the experimental and calculation procedures for deriving the thermal endurance characteristics, temperature index (TI) and relative temperature index (RTI) of an electrical insulating material (EIM) using the “fixed time frame method (FTFM)”. In this protocol, the ageing takes place for a small number of fixed times, using the appro­priate number of ageing temperatures throughout each time, the properties of the specimens being measured at the end of the relevant time interval. This differs from the procedure of IEC 60216-1, where ageing is conducted at a small number of fixed temperatures, property measurement taking place after ageing times dependent on the progress of ageing. The diagnostic tests employed in the fixed time frame method are restricted to destructive tests. The method has not yet been applied to non-destructive or proof test procedures. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- clarification of definition of index properties vs. endurance properties;
- complete rework of Annex G and the corresponding program.

This document specifies a token generation mechanism and token structure for smart
prepayment functionality in markets where IEC 62055-41 compliant systems are not used, and
where a different security mechanism is required by project-specific or national requirements.
This document specifies token structure, authentication and an anti-replay mechanism, token
operating model, and protocol.
This document is informed by the STS Association key management services, and by the key
management mechanisms used within the DLMS/COSEM security model within IEC 62056‑6‑2.
Reference is made to the international STS token standards (IEC 62055-41, IEC 62055-51 and
IEC 62055-52) for payment metering systems, and interworking has been considered where
appropriate in terms of token carrier ranges in the decimal domain. IEC 62055-41 tokens and
those described in this document are not interoperable, however their domains are designed to
be mutually exclusive to ensure the two kinds of tokens do not interfere with each other.
Metering application processing and functionality, HAN interface commands and attributes,
WAN interface commands and attributes are outside the scope of this document; however,
reference is made to other standards in this regard.
The mechanism for auditing and retrieving data from the meter relating to tariffication, meter
readings, profile data and other legal metrology information is outside the scope of this
document; however, this is defined as part of any overall metering solution. Such interfaces for
retrieving data from a meter may be defined using suitable protocols such as DLMS/COSEM as
defined in the IEC 62056 series.

This part of IEC 62055 applies to newly manufactured, static watt-hour payment meters of
accuracy classes 0,5, 1 and 2 for direct connection, for the measurement of alternating current
electrical energy consumption of a frequency in the range 45 Hz to 65 Hz that include a supply
control switch for the purpose of interruption or restoration of the electricity supply to the load
in accordance with the current value of the available credit maintained in the payment meter. It
does not apply to static watt-hour payment meters where the voltage across the connection
terminals exceeds 1 000 V (line-to-line voltage for meters for polyphase systems).
It applies to payment meters for indoor application, operating under normal climatic conditions
where the payment meter is mounted as for normal service (i.e. together with a specified
matching socket where applicable).
Payment meters are implementations where all the main functional elements are incorporated
in a single enclosure, together with any specified matching socket. There are also multi-device
payment metering installations where the various main functional elements, such as the
measuring element, the user interface unit, token carrier interface, and the supply control switch
are implemented in more than one enclosure, involving additional interfaces.
Functional requirements that apply to payment meters are also defined in this document, and
include informative basic functional requirements and tests for the prepayment mode of
operation in Annex A. Allowances are made for the relatively wide range of features, options,
alternatives, and implementations that may be found in practice. The diverse nature and
functionality of payment meters prevent the comprehensive specification of detailed test
methods for all of these requirements. However, in this case, the requirements are stated in
such a way that tests can then be formulated to respect and validate the specific functionality
of the payment meter being tested.
This document does not cover specific functionality or performance requirements for circuit
protection, isolation or similar purposes that may be specified through reference to other
specifications or standards. Safety requirements removed from Edition 1.0 have been replaced
with references to the safety requirements now contained in IEC 62052-31:2015, the product
safety standard for newly manufactured electricity meters. In-service safety testing (ISST) is
not covered by IEC 62052-31:2015 and is left to national best practice usually as an extension
of existing in-service testing (IST) of metrology stability.
This document does not cover software requirements. This document covers type-testing
requirements only. For acceptance testing, the requirements given in IEC 62058‑11:2008 and
IEC 62058-31:2008 may be used.
Dependability aspects are addressed in the IEC 62059 series of standards. Additional reliability,
availability, maintenance and life cycle aspects are provided by IEC TC 56.
