Ferrite cores - Guidelines on dimensions and the limits of surface irregularities - Part 5: EP-cores and associated parts for use in inductors and transformers
IEC 63093-5:2018 specifies the dimensions that are of importance for mechanical interchangeability for a preferred range of EP-cores made of ferrite, the essential dimensions of coil formers to be used with them and the locations of their terminal pins on a 2,50 mm printed wiring grid in relation to the base outlines of the cores and the effective parameter values to be used in calculations involving them. It also gives guidelines on allowable limits of surface irregularities applicable to EP-cores.
The specifications contained in this document are useful in negotiations between ferrite core manufacturers and users about surface irregularities. The general considerations upon which the design of this range of cores is based are as given in Annex A.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC 62317-5:2015:
a. addition of the limits of surface irregularities.
Noyaux ferrites - Lignes directrices relatives aux dimensions et aux limites des irrégularités de surface - Partie 5: Noyaux EP et pièces associées utilisés dans les inductances et transformateurs
L'IEC 63093-5:2018 spécifie les dimensions qui jouent un rôle majeur dans l'interchangeabilité mécanique d'une gamme préférentielle de noyaux EP constitués de ferrites, les dimensions essentielles des carcasses à utiliser avec ces noyaux et les emplacements de leurs broches de sortie sur une grille de circuit imprimé de 2,50 mm par rapport aux encombrements de base des noyaux, ainsi que les valeurs des paramètres effectifs à utiliser dans les calculs qui les impliquent. Elle donne également les lignes directrices relatives aux limites admissibles des irrégularités de surface applicables aux noyaux EP.
Les spécifications du présent document sont utiles aux négociations entre les fabricants de noyaux en ferrite et leurs utilisateurs concernant les irrégularités de surface.
Les considérations générales sur lesquelles repose la conception de cette gamme de noyaux figurent à l'Annexe A.
Cette première édition annule et remplace la première édition de l'IEC 62317-5 parue en 2015. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'IEC 62317-5:2015:
ajout des limites pour les irrégularités de surface.

in inductors and transformers
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) 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.
International Standard IEC 63093-5 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 51:
Magnetic components, ferrite and magnetic powder materials.
This first edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 62317-5 published in 2015. This
edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to
IEC 62317-5:2015:
a) addition of the limits of surface irregularities.

Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts in the IEC 63093 series, published under the general title Ferrite cores –
Guidelines on dimensions and the limits of surface irregularities, can be found on the IEC
website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
