FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

6 Interface power supply
6.1 General
An interface power supply can be a stand-alone power supply unit or it can be integrated into
any control device or control gear connected to the interface.
All voltages and currents refer to the terminals of the power supply unit.
6.2 Marking of the power supply terminals
The power supply terminals shall be marked with "+ da" or "+ DA" and "− da" or "− DA"
respectively.
6.3 Insulating system of the power supply terminals
The information about the insulating system in relation to IEC 60598-1 with the classification
of
– basic insulation,
– supplementary insulation,
– double or reinforced insulation,
for the power supply terminal shall be available on the label and/or in the literature (manual)
of the power supply.

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
62386-101 © IEC:2009 – 13 –
6.4 Voltage rating
The open circuit voltage of the power supply unit shall be in the range 11,5 V to 20,5 V. The
power supply open circuit voltage shall be stated in the installation leaflet or manual.
6.5 Current rating
Under all circumstances, the interface power supply shall limit the supply current to a
maximum of 250 mA. The mininum supply current shall be 8 mA.
The power supply unit shall provide at least 2 mA for each connected control gear and also
the supply current for connected control devices without the supply voltage falling below
11,5 V.
If more than one power supply is connected to the system, the total current shall not exceed
250 mA.
The minimum current that the power supply shall be capable of providing without its output
voltage falling below 11,5 V and the maximum current that it could provide under any
circumstances shall both be stated in the installation leaflet or manual.
6.6 Timing requirements
A step change in load impedance shall cause the power supply output to be re-established
inside the valid range in accordance with 5.5 within 10 μs. This requirement applies for load
impedances which would normally result in the power supply output voltage being inside a
valid range specified in 5.5.
NOTE It follows that any control gear/device causing a change of logic level on the interface by means of
changing its own impedance, should change its impedance at a rate such that the timing requirements given in 5.7
are met.
7 Transmission protocol structure
The requirements of Clause 7 of IEC 62386-102 apply.
8 Timing
The requirements of Clause 8 of IEC 62386-102 apply.
