52 FOREWORD
53 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
54 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
55 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
56 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
57 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
58 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
59 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
60 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
61 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
62 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
63 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
64 interested IEC National Committees.
65 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
66 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
67 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
68 misinterpretation by any end user.
69 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
70 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
71 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
72 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
73 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
74 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
75 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
76 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
77 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
78 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
79 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
80 Publications.
81 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
82 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
83 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
84 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
85
86 International standard IEC 61558-2-14 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 96:
87 Transformers, reactors, power supply units and combinations thereof.
88 This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2012. This edition
89 constitutes a technical revision.
90 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
91 edition:
92 a) Adjustment of structure and references in accordance with IEC 61558-1:2017;
93 b) Description of constructions moved to IEC 61558-1:2017;
94 c) New symbols for power supply units with linearly regulated output voltages and required
95 current collector position changes.

134 INTRODUCTION
135 IEC/TC 96 has group safety function in accordance with IEC Guide 104 for transformers other
136 than those intended to supply distribution networks, in particular transformers and power supply
137 units intended to allow the application of protective measures against electric shock as defined
138 by TC 64, but in certain cases including limitation of voltage and horizontal safety function for
139 SELV in accordance with IEC 60364-4-41.
140 The group safety function (GSF) is necessary because of responsibility e.g. for safety extra-low
141 voltage (SELV) in accordance with IEC 61140:2016 5.2.6 and IEC 60364-4-41:2017 414.3.1 or
142 control circuits in accordance with IEC 60204-1: 2016, 7.2.4.
143 The group safety function is needed for each part of IEC 61558-2 because different standards
144 of the IEC 61558 series can be combined in one construction but in certain cases with no
145 limitation of rated output power.
146 For example an auto-transformer in accordance with IEC 61558-2-13 can be designed with a
147 separate SELV-circuit in accordance with the particular requirements for IEC 61558-2-6 relating
148 to the general requirements of IEC 61558-1.
