General Information
This part of IEC 60404 is applicable to grain-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet specified in IEC 60404-8-7 for the measurement of magnetostriction characteristics under an applied AC magnetic field at 50 Hz or 60Hz.
This document defines the general principles and technical details of the measurement of magnetostriction characteristics of grain-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet by means of a single sheet tester and an optical sensor.
NOTE 1 The accelerometer method [5] is also an established method for the measurement of magnetostriction.
However, it is more suited to the measurement of magnetostriction under an externally applied tensile or compressive stress, not zero stress, because it places a weight on the test specimen to prevent a deformation of the test specimen.
Since this document includes the measurement at zero stress, the optical sensor method is provided as the optimum method.
This document is applicable to the measurement of:
- the butterfly loop;
- the peak-to-peak value λp-p;
- the zero-to-peak value λ0-p.
The magnetostriction characteristics are determined for a sinusoidal induced secondary voltage, for a specified peak value of the magnetic polarization and at a specified magnetizing frequency.
NOTE 2 Throughout this document the term “magnetic polarization” is used as described in IEC 60050-121-11-54.
In some standards of the 60404 series, the term “magnetic flux density” is used.

IEC TR 63304:2021(E) describes the general principle and technical details of the methods of measurement of the DC magnetic properties of permanent magnet materials in an open magnetic circuit using a superconducting magnet (SCM).
This method is applicable to permanent magnet materials, such as those specified in IEC 60404-8-1, the properties of which are presumed homogeneous throughout their volume.
There are two methods:
– the SCM-Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) method;
– the SCM-Extraction method.
This document also describes methods to correct the influence of the self-demagnetizing field in the test specimen on the demagnetization curve measured in an open magnetic circuit. The magnetic properties are determined from the corrected demagnetization curve.
NOTE These SCM-methods can determine the magnetic properties of permanent magnet materials with coercivity higher than 2 MA/m. The methods of measurement in a closed magnetic circuit specified in IEC 60404-5 can lead to significant measurement error due to saturation effects in the pole pieces of yoke for the magnetic materials with coercivity higher than 1,6 MA/m (see IEC 60404-5).

This document applies to Goss textured grain-oriented electrical steel strip and sheet supplied in the final annealed condition in coils or sheets, and intended for the construction of magnetic circuits.
The grades are grouped into two classes:
– conventional grades;
– high permeability grades, including grades which may be delivered in the domain refined condition. They correspond to Class C22 of IEC 60404-1.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
– extension of the range of electrical steels to include the improved grades.

IEC TR 62981:2017(E), which is a Technical Report, provides the results of international exercises and comparisons focusing on achieving the knowledge of the statistical performance of single sheet tester (SST) measurements made on grain-oriented electrical steel. These experiments aim at specifying obligatory reference values, measured by the single sheet test method, for the grading of high permeability (P grades) grain-oriented (g.-o.) materials, independently from the Epstein classification as it is practiced today. Besides this, Epstein test measurements have been made in order to gain more up-to-date statistical performance for comparison with the SST statistical characteristics. A few experiments were carried out aiming at improved knowledge on the systematic error performance of the SST, i.e. they were to determine the correlation between the quality of insulation separating laminations in the SST yokes and the measured loss.

This part of IEC 60404 specifies the general requirements, magnetic properties, geometric
characteristics and tolerances as well as inspection procedures for pure iron, silicon-iron,
nickel-iron and cobalt-iron. The materials are in the form of bar, billet, sheet, strip or wire. The
alloys covered correspond to those defined by classes A, C1, C2, E1 to E4 and F1 to F3 in
IEC 60404-1.
Magnetic materials used primarily for relays, iron and steel products, classified only by
coercivity, are covered in IEC 60404-8-10. IEC 60404-8-10 is less restrictive in terms of
magnetic properties than the irons (class A) and the silicon steels (classes C21 and C22)
specified in this standard, but it gives more comprehensive dimensional tolerances.
Non-oriented and oriented silicon steels (C21 and C22) for industrial power frequency
applications, classified by specific total loss, are covered in IEC 60404-8-3, IEC 60404-8-4
and IEC 60404-8-7.
Non-oriented and oriented thin magnetic materials for use at medium frequencies, classified
by specific total loss, are covered in IEC 60404-8-8.

This document specifies classification rules for soft ferrite materials used in inductive
components (inductors and transformers) fulfilling the requirements of the electronic industries.
This document addresses the following issues for ferrite suppliers and users:
• cross-reference between materials from multiple suppliers;
• assistance to customers in understanding the published technical data in catalogues when
comparing multiple suppliers;
• guidance to customers in selecting the most applicable material for each application;
• setting of nomenclature for IEC standards relating to ferrite;
• establishing uniform benchmarks for suppliers for performance in new development of
materials.
The numerical values given in this document are typical values of the parameters (properties) of
the related materials. Direct translation from the material specification into the core specification
is not always easy or possible.
Every detailed material and core specification should be agreed upon between the user and the
manufacturer.

IEC 60404-1:2016 is available as IEC 60404-1:2016 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60404-1:2016(E) is intended to classify commercially available magnetic materials. The term "magnetic materials" denotes substances where the application requires the existence of ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic properties. The classification of magnetic materials is based upon the generally recognized existence of two main groups of products: - soft magnetic materials (coercivity less than or equal to 1 000 A/m); - hard magnetic materials (coercivity greater than 1 000 A/m). This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) Removal of all tables and values describing typical properties of the material to be consistent with the aim of the document to be a classification and not a specification. b) Enlargement of the Ni content for the classes E1 and E3. c) Enlargement of the Co content for the classes F3. d) Addition of a new class: U5 bonded rare earth-iron-nitrogen magnets.
