Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2017. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: a) alignement sur la dernière édition de l'ISO IEC 60068-2-52:2017 concernant le traitement en atmosphère au brouillard salin; b) alignement sur la nouvelle édition de l'ISO 22479:2019 concernant le traitement en atmosphère sulfureuse humide; c) nouvelle annexe normative concernant l'applicabilité d'essais précédents.
Elementi sistema za zaščito pred strelo (LPSC) - 4. del: Zahteve za pritrdilne elemente (IEC 62561-4:2023)
Standard IEC 62561-4:2023 je na voljo kot IEC 62561-4:2023 RLV, ki vsebuje mednarodni standard in njegovo različico z revizijami, ki prikazujejo vse spremembe tehnične vsebine v primerjavi s prejšnjo izdajo. Standard IEC 62561-4:2023 obravnava zahteve in preskuse za kovinske ter nekovinske pritrdilne elemente, ki se uporabljajo za ohranitev in podporo lovilnega, odvodnega ter ozemljitvenega sistema. Tretja izdaja razveljavlja in nadomešča drugo izdajo, objavljeno leta 2017. Ta izdaja je tehnično popravljena izdaja. Ta izdaja v primerjavi s prejšnjo vključuje naslednje pomembne tehnične spremembe:
a) uskladitev z najnovejšo izdajo standarda ISO IEC 60068-2-52:2017 v zvezi s preskusom v atmosferi s slano meglo;
b) uskladitev z novo izdajo standarda ISO 22479:2019 v zvezi s preskusom v vlažni žveplasti atmosferi;
c) nov normativni dodatek v zvezi z uporabnostjo prejšnjih preskusov.
