FERRITE CORES – GUIDELINES ON DIMENSIONS
AND THE LIMITS OF SURFACE IRREGULARITIES –
Part 8: E-cores
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 63093-8 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 62317-8 published in 2006 and
the second edition of IEC 60424-3 published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical
revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to
IEC 62317-8:2006 and IEC 60424-3:2015:
a) This document integrates IEC 62317-8:2006 and IEC 60424-3:2015;
b) Table 4 – Allowable areas of chips for E-cores, of IEC 60424-3:2015, has been moved to
Annex C (informative) of this document.

FERRITE CORES – GUIDELINES ON DIMENSIONS
AND THE LIMITS OF SURFACE IRREGULARITIES –
Part 8: E-cores
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 63093-8 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 62317-8 published in 2006 and
the second edition of IEC 60424-3 published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical
revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to
IEC 62317-8:2006 and IEC 60424-3:2015:
a) This document integrates IEC 62317-8:2006 and IEC 60424-3:2015;
b) Table 4 – Allowable areas of chips for E-cores, of IEC 60424-3:2015, has been moved to
Annex C (informative) of this document.

FERRITE CORES – GUIDELINES ON DIMENSIONS
AND THE LIMITS OF SURFACE IRREGULARITIES –
Part 8: E-cores
1 Scope
This part of IEC 63093 specifies the dimensions that are of importance for mechanical
interchangeability for a preferred range of E-cores made of ferrite and the essential
dimensions of coil formers to be used with them, as well the effective parameter values to be
used in calculations involving them. It also gives guidelines on allowable limits of surface
irregularities applicable to E-cores.
The specifications contained in this document are useful in negotiations between ferrite core
manufacturers and customers about surface irregularities.
The use of derived standards, which give more detailed specifications of component parts
while still permitting compliance with this standard, is discussed in Annex A.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their
content constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition
cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including
any amendments) applies.

4.2 Dimensions of E-cores
4.2.1 Main dimensions
The main dimensions of E-cores with rectangular cross-section shall be those given in Table 1.
The dimensions of the cores can be checked by means of gauges, an example of which is
given in Annex B. In order to facilitate production it can be necessary to use gauges with
dimensions differing from those given in Annex B, although no relaxation of the requirements
for the dimensions of the cores given in Table 1 is thereby permitted. The dimensions
specified in Table 1 are illustrated in Figure 1.
