In a particular line of the table that is mandatory in one system, the symbol for the similar electrode from the other system is indicated in parentheses. By appropriate restriction of the formulation of a particular electrode, it is often, but not always, possible to produce an electrode that can be classified in both systems, in which case the electrode, or its packaging, can be marked with the classification in either or both systems.
For system B only, electrode flux combinations for the single-run and two-run techniques are classified on the basis of the two-run technique.

This document gives guidelines for the choice of non-destructive testing (NDT) methods for welds in metals and for the evaluation of the results for quality control purposes, based on quality requirements, material, weld thickness, welding process and extent of testing.
This document also specifies general rules and standards to be applied to the different types of testing, for the selection of the method, the techniques and the acceptance levels.
Acceptance levels cannot be a direct interpretation of the quality levels defined in ISO 5817 or ISO 10042. They are linked to the overall quality of the produced batch of welds.
The requirements specified in this document for acceptance levels for NDT conform with quality levels stated in ISO 5817 or ISO 10042 (moderate, intermediate, stringent) only on a general basis and not in detail for each indication.
Annex A gives correlations between quality levels, testing levels and acceptance levels for specific testing techniques.
Annex B gives an overview on specific testing techniques of standards linked to quality levels, acceptance levels and testing methods.

IEC 60974-4:2025 specifies test procedures for periodic inspection and, after repair, to ensure electrical safety. These test procedures are also applicable for maintenance. This document is applicable to power sources for arc welding and allied processes designed in accordance with IEC 60974-1 or IEC 60974-6. Stand-alone ancillary equipment designed in accordance with other parts of IEC 60974 can be tested in accordance with relevant requirements of this part of IEC 60974. This document includes requirements for battery-powered arc welding power sources, which are given in Annex D. NOTE 1 The welding power source can be tested with any ancillary equipment fitted that can affect the test results. This document is not applicable to testing of new power sources or engine-driven power sources. NOTE 2 For a power source not built in accordance with IEC 60974-1, see Annex C. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - examples for the measurements in respect of EN 50699, - consideration of measuring equipment in respect of IEC 61557 series, - more determinations of no-load voltage for welding equipment built according to IEC 60974-1:1998 and IEC 60974-1:1998/AMD1:2000 or earlier, - new Annex D providing additional information to be considered when testing battery-powered welding power sources and connected chargers.

This document specifies the general requirements and tests for decomposition blockers downstream of pressure regulators in acetylene manifold systems (see ISO 14114). Decomposition blockers can be used in the low-pressure section (downstream of acetylene manifold system outlet) up to 0,15 MPa (1,5 bar) e.g. in pipelines, outlet points or for the protection of low-pressure sections in big pipe systems. Decomposition blockers can only be used in sections with pure acetylene. The possible backflow of oxygen or air into the section where the decomposition blocker is installed needs to be prevented by a non-return valve downstream of the decomposition blocker.
