Overview

SIST EN IEC 60255-26:2025/FprA1:2026 is an Amendment to the established standard for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for measuring relays and protection equipment. Developed by CLC and the IEC Technical Committee 95, this amendment refines and clarifies EMC test procedures, port definitions, and compliance criteria for relays and associated protection devices. It aims to ensure that protection equipment continues to function correctly in environments affected by electromagnetic disturbances, supporting reliability in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution.

Key Topics

• Updated Definitions: New terminologies, such as DC power output port and analogue input signal port, are introduced to better specify the interfaces subjected to EMC tests.
• Clarified Emission and Immunity Tests: The amendment revises tables for radiated and conducted emission tests, as well as immunity tests for various ports. Corrections address emission limits, source impedances, and environmental conditions for testing.
• Port-Specific Requirements: Immunity and emission requirements are updated for new and existing port categories, including DC power output ports and analogue signal ports, ensuring each interface is tested appropriately for real-world use.
• Adoption of EMC Basic Standards: The amendment aligns testing procedures with referenced standards (e.g., CISPR 11, CISPR 32, IEC 61000-4 series), increasing harmonization and reliability of test methods.
• Realistic Use Scenarios: Exemptions and clarifications are included for ports or cables under specific length or shielding conditions, preventing unnecessary testing while maintaining robust EMC performance.

Applications

SIST EN IEC 60255-26:2025/FprA1:2026 is critical in the following areas:

• Power System Protection: Ensures that relays and related equipment remain immune to electromagnetic interference, safeguarding critical infrastructure.
• Component Testing and Certification: Manufacturers of measuring relays and protection equipment use this standard to validate products for EMC compliance, supporting certification and market access.
• System Integration: Engineers in grid automation or industrial automation integrate compliant relays to ensure reliable operation throughout the system lifecycle.
• Quality Assurance: Utilities and service providers rely on EMC-compliant devices to maintain service quality and operational reliability in harsh electromagnetic environments.

Related Standards

Users of SIST EN IEC 60255-26:2025/FprA1:2026 often rely on the following international standards:

• IEC 61000-4 Series: Core EMC testing methodologies covering immunity and emission measurements.
• CISPR 11 & CISPR 32: Standards for radiated and conducted emissions for industrial, scientific, and multimedia devices.
• IEC 60255 Series: General requirements for measuring relays and protection equipment, including functional tests and performance criteria.
• IEC 60050-447: International Electrotechnical Vocabulary for definitions related to protective relays.

Practical Value

Adhering to this amendment ensures:

• Consistent Product Performance: Through clearly defined EMC testing boundaries and acceptance criteria.
• Regulatory Compliance: Facilitates conformity with European and international EMC directives, enhancing marketability and legal certainty.
• Reduced Risk of Malfunction: Systematic EMC testing ensures that protection equipment operates correctly under typical and extreme electromagnetic conditions.
• Optimized Test Procedures: Eliminates ambiguities and unnecessary tests, streamlining product development and approval cycles.

For manufacturers, engineering professionals, and operators in the electrical utilities and industrial automation sectors, adopting SIST EN IEC 60255-26:2025/FprA1:2026 is essential to deliver safe, robust, and high-performance protection solutions in the context of growing electromagnetic challenges.

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