AMENDMENT 1
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s), which
may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent
the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at https://patents.iec.ch. IEC
shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

AMENDEMENT 1
AVANT-PROPOS
1) La Commission Électrotechnique Internationale (IEC) est une organisation mondiale de normalisation composée
de l'ensemble des comités électrotechniques nationaux (Comités nationaux de l'IEC). L'IEC a pour objet de
favoriser la coopération internationale pour toutes les questions de normalisation dans les domaines de
l'électricité et de l'électronique. À cet effet, l'IEC - entre autres activités - publie des Normes internationales, des
Spécifications techniques, des Rapports techniques, des Spécifications accessibles au public (PAS) et des
Guides (ci-après dénommés "Publication(s) de l'IEC"). Leur élaboration est confiée à des comités d'études, aux
travaux desquels tout Comité national intéressé par le sujet traité peut participer. Les organisations
internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'IEC, participent également aux
travaux. L'IEC collabore étroitement avec l'Organisation Internationale de Normalisation (ISO), selon des
conditions fixées par accord entre les deux organisations.
2) Les décisions ou accords officiels de l'IEC concernant les questions techniques représentent, dans la mesure du
possible, un accord international sur les sujets étudiés, étant donné que les Comités nationaux de l'IEC intéressés
sont représentés dans chaque comité d'études.
3) Les Publications de l'IEC se présentent sous la forme de recommandations internationales et sont agréées
comme telles par les Comités nationaux de l'IEC. Tous les efforts raisonnables sont entrepris afin que l'IEC
s'assure de l'exactitude du contenu technique de ses publications; l'IEC ne peut pas être tenue responsable de
l'éventuelle mauvaise utilisation ou interprétation qui en est faite par un quelconque utilisateur final.
4) Dans le but d'encourager l'uniformité internationale, les Comités nationaux de l'IEC s'engagent, dans toute la
mesure possible, à appliquer de façon transparente les Publications de l'IEC dans leurs publications nationales
et régionales. Toutes divergences entre toutes Publications de l'IEC et toutes publications nationales ou
régionales correspondantes doivent être indiquées en termes clairs dans ces dernières.
5) L'IEC elle-même ne fournit aucune attestation de conformité. Des organismes de certification indépendants
fournissent des services d'évaluation de conformité et, dans certains secteurs, accèdent aux marques de
conformité de l'IEC. L'IEC n'est responsable d'aucun des services effectués par les organismes de certification
indépendants.
6) Tous les utilisateurs doivent s'assurer qu'ils sont en possession de la dernière édition de cette publication.
7) Aucune responsabilité ne doit être imputée à l'IEC, à ses administrateurs, employés, auxiliaires ou mandataires,
y compris ses experts particuliers et les membres de ses comités d'études et des Comités nationaux de l'IEC,
pour tout préjudice causé en cas de dommages corporels et matériels, ou de tout autre dommage de quelque
nature que ce soit, directe ou indirecte, ou pour supporter les coûts (y compris les frais de justice) et les dépenses
découlant de la publication ou de l'utilisation de cette Publication de l'IEC ou de toute autre Publication de l'IEC,
ou au crédit qui lui est accordé.
8) L'attention est attirée sur les références normatives citées dans cette publication. L'utilisation de publications
référencées est obligatoire pour une application correcte de la présente publication.
9) L'IEC attire l'attention sur le fait que la mise en application du présent document peut entraîner l'utilisation d'un
ou de plusieurs brevets. L'IEC ne prend pas position quant à la preuve, à la validité et à l'applicabilité de tout
droit de brevet revendiqué à cet égard. À la date de publication du présent document, l'IEC n'a pas reçu
notification qu'un ou plusieurs brevets pouvaient être nécessaires à sa mise en application. Toutefois, il y a lieu
d'avertir les responsables de la mise en application du présent document que des informations plus récentes
sont susceptibles de figurer dans la base de données de brevets, disponible à l'adresse https://patents.iec.ch.
L'IEC ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne pas avoir identifié de tels droits de brevet.

___________
2 Normative references
Add the following new reference to the existing list:
IEC 60404-8-11, Magnetic materials - Part 8-11: Specifications for individual materials - Fe-
based amorphous strip delivered in the semi-processed state
4.3.2.2.3 Basis of subclassification
Add, at the end of the subclause, the following new text:
With the revision of IEC 60404-8-7 in 2020, an additional subclassification has been introduced
in order to distinguish between high-permeability grades with and without magnetic domain
refinement.
4.3.2.2.5 Physical characteristics
Add, after the existing first bulleted item of the list, the following new list item:
• Domain Refined (DR) state: whether or not the material has been treated with a technology
for magnetic domain refinement;
Add, before the existing final paragraph, the following new note:
NOTE According to IEC 60404-8-7, the magnetic properties of non-heatproof magnetic domain refined
high-permeability grades are determined according to IEC 60404-3 without applying a supplementary heat treatment,
and in the case of heatproof magnetic domain refinement grades, these properties are determined in accordance
with IEC 60404-2 after the required heat treatment.
4.9.2 Class I1 - Iron-based amorphous alloys
4.9.2.1 Reference document
Replace the existing text with the following:
These materials are covered by IEC 60404-8-11.
5.2.5 Class R7 - Rare earth-iron-boron (REFeB) alloys
Replace the existing titles and text of subclauses 5.2.5 and 5.2.5.1 with the following new titles:
5.2.5 Class R7 - Rare earth-iron-boron (REFeB) sintered magnets
5.2.5.1 Void
5.2.5.2 Chemical composition and manufacturing method
Replace the existing first paragraph including the two bullet points with the following:
The sintered magnets are based on the compound RE Fe B. RE is mainly neodymium, which
2 14
may be partially substituted by dysprosium, praseodymium or other rare earths. Iron may be
partially substituted by cobalt. The alloys consist of 28 % to 35 % total rare earth, 0 % to 15 %
cobalt, 0,85 % to 1,2 % boron, 0 % to 11 % dysprosium and terbium, 0 % to 15 % praseodymium,
cerium (Ce), etc., 0 % to 1 % vanadium, niobium, aluminium, gallium and copper and the
balance iron.
The sintered magnets are prepared by compacting milled alloy powder in a magnetic field and
sintering the compacted body for densification followed by a heat treatment, resulting in a
magnet with anisotropic magnetic properties.
Add, after the existing 5.2.5.6, the following new subclause:
5.2.6 Class R8 - Rare earth-iron-boron (REFeB) hot deformed magnets
5.2.6.1 Reference document
These materials are covered by IEC 60404-8-1.
5.2.6.2 Chemical composition and manufacturing method
The hot deformed magnets are based on the compound RE Fe B. The composition of the
2 14
magnets are the same as the REFeB sintered magnets (Class R7).
The hot deformed magnets use rapidly solidified flakes prepared by the melt-spinning process.
After obtaining isotropic pressed bodies, the pressed bodies are consolidated and subsequently
hot deformed at elevated temperatures. Alignment of grains is obtained along compression
stress during die-upsetting or extrusion.
5.2.6.3 Basis of subclassification
The recommended subclassification is based on the degree of magnetic anisotropy and
chemical compositions of the material.
5.2.6.4 Available forms
The materials are typically available in the form of rings and plates.
5.2.6.5 Physical characteristics
The physical characteristics of REFeB hot deformed magnets are the same as REFeB sintered
magnets (Class R7).
5.2.6.6 Main applications
The main applications of REFeB hot deformed magnets are the same as REFeB sintered
magnets (Class R7).
5.3.2 Chemical composition and manufacturing method
Replace the existing first paragraph with the following new paragraph:
The composition of the hard ferrites can be described by the formula MO·n Fe 0 (where M is
2 3
barium, strontium and calcium). The value of n can vary from 4,5 to 6,5. The magnetic properties
may be improved by special substitutions. This is particularly so with substitutions of lanthanum
for strontium or calcium and of cobalt for iron. The hard ferrites have a hexagonal crystal
structure with magnetic anisotropy.
5.5.4.2 Chemical composition and manufacturing method
Replace the existing paragraph with the following new paragraph:
These bonded magnets contain powdered alloys as given in class R7. There are 2 k
