INTRODUCTION
Replace the sixth paragraph of the Introduction by the following:
Fires involving electrotechnical products can also be initiated from external non-electrical
sources. Considerations of this nature should be dealt with in the overall fire hazard
assessment.
Replace the seventh paragraph of the Introduction by the following:
This part of IEC 60695 describes a glow-wire ignition temperature test method for materials. It
should be used to measure, describe, and rank the properties of materials in response to heat
caused by contact with an electrically heated wire under controlled laboratory conditions. This
may be useful for the evaluation of materials for use in products that may be exposed to
excess thermal stress such as a fault current flowing through a wire, overloading of
components, and/or bad connections. It should not be used to solely describe or appraise the
fire hazard or fire risk of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions.
However, results of this test may be used as elements of a fire hazard assessment which
takes into account all of the factors which are pertinent to a particular end use.
1 Scope
Replace item b) of the second paragraph of the Scope by the following:
b) sustained flaming combustion does not occur for a time longer than 5 s for any single
flame event and the specimen is not totally consumed.

2 Normative references
Remove the dates from the following existing references:
IEC Guide 104, The preparation of safety publications and the use of basic safety publications
and group safety publications

Fire hazard testing - Part 1-10: Guidance for assessing the fire hazard of electrotechnical products - General guidelines

IEC 60695-1-10:2016 provides general guidance with respect to fire hazard testing on how to reduce to a tolerable level the risk of fire and the potential effects of fires involving electrotechnical products. It also serves as a signpost standard to the other guidance publications in the IEC 60695 series. It does not give guidance on the use of fire-resistant compartment boundaries or on the use of detection and suppression systems for the mitigation of fire risk. It describes the relationship between fire risk and the potential effects of fire, and provides guidance to IEC product committees on the applicability of qualitative and quantitative fire tests to the fire hazard assessment of electrotechnical products. Details of the calculation of fire risk are not included in the scope of this document. It emphasises the importance of the scenario approach to fire hazard and risk assessment and discusses criteria intended to ensure the development of technically sound hazard-based fire test methods. It discusses the different types of fire tests, in particular the nature of qualitative and quantitative fire tests. It also describes the circumstances under which it is appropriate for IEC product committees to maintain or develop qualitative fire tests. This standard is intended as guidance to IEC committees, and is to be used with respect to their individual applications. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2009.

Fire hazard testing - Part 10-3: Abnormal heat - Mould stress relief distortion test

IEC 60695-10-3:2016 specifies a mould stress relief distortion test. It is applicable to electrotechnical equipment including parts made from polymeric materials. This test method is intended to evaluate the effects caused by relief of the residual process-induced stress, set in a moulded polymeric assembly of an end product. This stress relief occurs when the sample (energized or not), is exposed to conditioning at a defined temperature for a defined period of time. The test specimen is considered to have satisfactorily withstood the test if, after conditioning to room temperature, it meets defined test criteria. This basic safety publication is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51. It is not intended for use by manufacturers or certification bodies. This second edition of IEC 60695-10-3 cancels and replaces the first edition issued in 2002. It constitutes a technical revision.
