ISO 14373:2006(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 14373 was prepared by the International Institute of Welding, recognized as an international
standardizing body in the field of welding in accordance with Council Resolution 42/1999.
Requests for official interpretations of any aspect of this International Standard should be directed to the
ISO Central Secretariat, who will forward them to the IIW Secretariat for an official response.

a) pedestal welding equipment;
b) gun welders;
c) automatic welding equipment where the components are fed by robots or automatic feeding equipment;
d) multi welders;
e) robotic welders.
Information on appropriate welding equipment is given in Annex A, and information on spot welding conditions
is given in Annex B. This information is provided for guidance only. Depending on the service conditions of the
fabrication, the type of welding equipment, the characteristics of the secondary circuit, the electrode material,
and the shape, it is possible that certain modifications are necessary. In such cases, further information may
be obtained from the relevant application standard, where one exists.
The welding of organic coated or primer coated steels is not within the scope of this International Standard.
