105 FOREWORD
106 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
107 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
108 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
109 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
110 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
111 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
112 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non -
113 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
114 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
115 agreement between the two organizations.
116 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
117 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
118 interested IEC National Committees.
119 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
120 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
121 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
122 misinterpretation by any end user.
123 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
124 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
125 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
126 the latter.
127 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
128 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
129 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
130 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
131 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
132 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
133 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
134 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
135 Publications.
136 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
137 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
138 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
139 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
