EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 is Amendment 2 to the IEC specification for paper tape covered rectangular copper wire, prepared by IEC technical committee 55, Winding wires. It updates the parent part 27-3 document by changing the clause on resistance to hydrolysis and transformer oil and by adding packaging label information. For manufacturers, suppliers and users of winding wire, it shows what changes in the product specification and how packaged wire units are to be identified.
What does EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 specify?
EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 specifies amendments to IEC 60317-27-3:2019 for paper tape covered rectangular copper wire. It is an amendment document, so it is read together with the parent standard rather than as a full standalone product specification.
The document is organized as a foreword followed by the amendment text. The amendment changes clause 20 and extends clause 30.
| Part of the amendment | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Clause 20 | Resistance to hydrolysis and to transformer oil |
| Clause 30 | Packaging and label information for each packaging unit |
What are the key requirements of EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026?
EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 changes only two technical points, both of which affect how the wire is specified and identified in practice. One point removes a test requirement for this product, and the other adds a minimum set of label data for packaged wire.
Clause 20 - Resistance to hydrolysis and to transformer oil
The clause is replaced with “Test inappropriate.” In practice, this means the amendment removes that test from the product description for this wire type.Clause 30 - Packaging
Labels shall be attached to each packaging unit as agreed between supplier and user. This makes packaging identification part of the commercial and quality agreement, not just an internal packing choice.Manufacturer identification
The label shall include the manufacturer’s name and/or trade mark. In practice, this lets buyers trace the package back to the producer.Wire and paper identification
The label shall state the type of wire and paper, for example by trade name and/or IEC specification number. This helps users verify that the delivered material matches the ordered wire construction.Net mass of wire
The label shall state the net mass of wire. In practice, this supports receiving inspection, stock control and order checking.Nominal conductor diameter and number of paper layers
The label shall state the nominal conductor diameter of the wire and the number of layers of paper. This gives the key construction data needed to match the package to the intended winding application.Date of manufacture
The label shall include the date of manufacture. This helps with traceability and inventory rotation.
What terms does EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 define?
- Winding wires - The product family covered by the IEC 60317 series, used for electrical windings.
- Paper tape covered rectangular copper wire - Rectangular copper wire insulated with paper tape, as named in the title.
- Packaging unit - The individual package that receives the label information required by clause 30.
- Trade mark - The maker’s brand name, which may be used instead of or alongside the manufacturer’s name.
- Net mass of wire - The mass of the wire in the package, excluding the packaging itself.
- Nominal conductor diameter - The declared conductor size used to identify the wire dimension.
- IEC specification number - The IEC document reference used to identify the wire type on the label.
Who uses EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026?
EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 is used by winding wire manufacturers, suppliers and buyers who need a common product description for paper tape covered rectangular copper wire. Quality managers and receiving inspectors use it to check packaging identification and traceability. Test and conformity personnel use it to see which clause has been changed and which test is no longer applicable for this product. It is also relevant to engineering teams specifying winding materials for electrical equipment.
What changed in EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 from the previous edition?
EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 is Amendment 2 to IEC 60317-27-3:2019.
- Clause 20 is replaced with the statement that the resistance to hydrolysis and to transformer oil test is inappropriate.
- Clause 30 is expanded to require label information on each packaging unit, including the manufacturer, the wire and paper type, the net mass, the nominal conductor diameter, the number of paper layers, and the date of manufacture.
Which standards are used with EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026?
- IEC 60317-27-3:2019 - The parent part 27-3 standard that this amendment modifies and with which it is used.
What does the EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 document contain?
EN IEC 60317-27-3:2019/prA2:2026 contains front matter, a foreword, and the amendment instructions to the parent standard. The foreword identifies IEC, the technical committee, the drafting basis, the stability date, and the patent notice. The amendment text then gives the exact replacement for clause 20 and the added wording for clause 30. It is a short change document focused on specification and packaging identification, not a full restatement of the underlying wire standard.

10 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
11 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
12 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
13 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
14 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
15 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
16 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
17 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
18 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
