Kennzeichnung von Widerständen und Kondensatoren
Codes de marquage des résistances et des condensateurs
L'IEC 60062:2016 spécifie des codes de désignation et de marquage pour les condensateurs et les résistances. Elle fournit des méthodes de codage pour les valeurs de résistance et de capacité et leurs tolérances, y compris le codage par couleurs des résistances. Elle fournit également des systèmes de code de date pour le marquage de petits composants. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: - introduction de la nouvelle couleur de codage rose pour le facteur multiplicateur 10-3; - introduction de nouveaux paragraphes: 3.2 Prescription de couleurs de codage, 3.3 Méthodes de marquage de la valeur d'une résistance et de la tolérance, 3.4 Méthodes de marquage du coefficient de température de résistance. Pour plus de clarté, l'attribution des couleurs, le codage de la valeur d'une résistance et de la tolérance et le codage du coefficient de température de résistance sont traités dans des articles distincts; - ajout d'illustrations sur le marquage du coefficient de température de résistance par une bande de couleur interrompue; - ajout d'un nouveau paragraphe sur un marquage de code de longueur fixe, un marquage de code de longueur fixe des valeurs de résistance comportant jusqu'à 3 chiffres significatifs, donc un code de longueur fixe de 4 chiffres et un marquage de code de longueur fixe des valeurs de capacité comportant jusqu'à 2 chiffres significatifs, donc un code de longueur fixe de 3 chiffres; - introduction de deux articles, l'Article 6, Codage des propriétés spécifiques aux condensateurs et l'Article 7, Codage des propriétés spécifiques aux résistances; - introduction de l'Annexe A, Codage spécial à trois caractères de la valeur d'une résistance avec trois chiffres significatifs.
