Fire hazard testing - Part 7-1: Toxicity of fire effluent - General guidance
IEC 60695-7-1:2010 provides guidance on the factors which affect the toxic hazard from fires involving electrotechnical products, and provides information on the methodologies recommended by ISO TC 92 (SC 3) for estimating and reducing the toxic hazard from fires, as expressed in ISO 19706, ISO 13344 and ISO 13571. There is no single test to realistically assess toxic hazard in fires. Small-scale toxic potency tests are not capable on their own of assessing the toxic hazard in fires. Current toxicity tests attempt to measure the toxic potency of a laboratory generated fire effluent. Toxic potency should not be confused with toxic hazard. The main changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows: - minor editorial and technical changes throughout; - references to the ISO 9122 series have been deleted and the text throughout has been updated; - definitions have been updated in accordance with ISO/IEC 13943:2008; - dispersal volume is stated to be an important parameter in the assessment of toxic hazard; - table 2 has been updated; - figures 1 and 2 have both been updated. This document has the status of a basic safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51.

Essais relatifs aux risques du feu - Partie 7-1: Toxicité des effluents du feu - Lignes directrices générales
La CEI 60695-7-1:2010 fournit des lignes directrices sur les facteurs qui affectent le danger toxique des feux impliquant des produits électrotechniques, et fournit des informations sur les méthodologies recommandées par le TC 92 (SC 3) de l'ISO concernant l'estimation et la réduction du danger toxique des incendies, tel qu'exprimé dans l'ISO 19706, dans l'ISO 13344 et dans l'ISO 13571. Il n'y a pas d'essai unique pour évaluer de façon réaliste le danger toxique des incendies. Les essais de potentiel toxique à petite échelle ne sont pas capables en eux-mêmes d'évaluer le danger toxique des incendies. Les essais de toxicité actuels tentent de mesurer le potentiel toxique d'un effluent du feu généré en laboratoire. Il convient de ne pas confondre potentiel toxique et danger toxique. Les principales modifications par rapport à l'édition précédente sont:< - modifications rédactionnelles et techniques mineures dans toute la norme; - les références à la série ISO 9122 ont été supprimées et l'ensemble du texte a été mis à jour; - les définitions ont été mises à jour, conformément à l'ISO/CEI 13943:2008; - le volume de dispersion est spécifié comme étant un paramètre important dans l'évaluation du danger toxique; - le Tableau 2 a été mis à jour; - les Figures 1 et 2 ont été mises à jour. Ce document a le statut d'une publication fondamentale de sécurité, conformément au Guide CEI 104 et au Guide ISO/CEI 51.
Preskušanje požarne ogroženosti - 7-1. del: Toksičnost dimnih plinov - Splošno navodilo (IEC 60695-7-1:2010)
Ta del IEC 60695 podaja navodila glede dejavnikov, ki vplivajo na nevarnost zastrupitve (zaradi požarov, pri katerih so vključeni elektrotehnični izdelki, ter podaja informacije glede metodologij, ki jih priporoča ISO TC 92 (SC 3) za ocenjevanje in zmanjševanje nevarnosti zastrupitve zaradi požara, kot so navedene v ISO 19706, ISO 13344 in ISO 13571. Ne obstaja en sam preskus, ki bi stvarno ocenil nevarnost zastrupitve pri požarih. Preskusi učinkovitosti strupa v majhnem obsegu sami ne zadoščajo za ocenjevanje nevarnosti zastrupitve pri požaru. Trenutni preskusi toksičnosti si prizadevajo meriti učinkovitost strupa, ki nastane pri požaru, ustvarjenem v laboratoriju. Učinkovitosti strupa se ne sme mešati z nevarnostjo zastrupitve. Ta osnovna varnostna publikacija je namenjena uporabi s strani tehničnih odborov pri pripravi standardov v skladu z načeli, opredeljenimi v IEC Guide 104 in ISO/IEC Guide 51. Ena od odgovornosti tehničnega odbora je, če je primerno, uporabiti osnovne varnostne publikacije pri pripravi svojih publikacij. Zahteve, preskusne metode ali preskusni pogoji te osnovne varnostne publikacije se ne uporabljajo, razen če se ustrezne publikacije nanje izrecno sklicujejo ali jih vključujejo.

General guidance
FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
