- Abstract
This part of IEC 60115 is applicable to fixed power resistors with axial leads for through hole assembly (THT) on circuit boards for use in electronic equipment. The document is applicable to the drafting of detail specifications for fixed low-power film resistors with leads classified to level G, which is defined in IEC 60115-1:2020, 3.4 for general electronic equipment, typically operated under benign or moderate environmental conditions, where the major requirement is function. Examples for level G include consumer products and telecommunication user terminals. This detail specification is based upon the blank detail specification IEC 60115-4-10:202X. This detail specification establishes test schedules and performance requirements permitting the quality assessment of the resistors covered herein according to the quality assessment procedures prescribed by IEC 60115-1:2020, Annex Q.

SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 is a CENELEC amendment to the European standard for blank detail specifications for fixed power resistors with axial leads for through-hole assembly on circuit boards (THT). It updates the wording used to draft detail specifications for general electronic equipment at classification level G, and it adds the European cross-references needed to apply the document in practice.
What does SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 specify?
SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 applies to fixed power resistors with axial leads for THT on circuit boards used in electronic equipment. It is aimed at drafting detail specifications for fixed low-power film resistors classified to level G, where the main need is functional performance in benign or moderate environments.
The scope points to everyday electronics rather than harsh-duty applications. Examples for level G include consumer products and telecommunication user terminals, so the document is relevant when the resistor must fit normal equipment use and standard qualification practice.
The amendment is organized into a European foreword, four modification items, and two annexes.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex ZA | Normative references to international publications with their corresponding European publications |
| Annex ZX | Cross-references for references to the prior revision of this document |
What are the key requirements of SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026?
SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 mainly updates the drafting framework for the detail specification and the reference structure around it. In practice, it tells the user how the blank detail specification is to be identified, titled, and linked to earlier and related documents.
- Clause 0.3 changes the identification block for the detail specification. Field [4] is replaced with a title format for “Part 4-10xx: Detail specification - Power resistors with axial leads for through-hole assembly on circuit boards (THT), ..., for general electronic equipment, classification level G”. Field [6] adds a third line for “Termination plating / ...”. This matters when a manufacturer or committee prepares a component-specific detail specification.
- The title above clause 1 is replaced with a new form that keeps the “blank” concept explicit. A comment explains that the final detail specification should use wording that describes the actual component type, so parallel specifications can be distinguished clearly.
- The document states that the intended detail specification is built on the blank detail specification IEC 60115-4-10:202X. That tells the reader that this amendment is part of a drafting system, not a finished product standard by itself.
- The detail specification establishes test schedules and performance requirements for quality assessment under IEC 60115-1:2020, Annex Q. In practice, this is the link to qualification and sampling activity for the resistor family.
- Annex X is replaced by a note that it is deleted from this document and that Annex ZX now provides the cross-references to EN 140201:1996. This helps users follow old clause and table references without confusion.
- Annex ZA adds the normative reference list with corresponding European publications. That matters because the document relies on other standards for marking, preferred values, packaging, dimensions, terminations, component specification methods, and sampling plans.
- The foreword states that additions relative to IEC 60115-4-10:2023 are prefixed “Z”. This helps users tell amendment material apart from the underlying IEC text.
What terms does SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 define?
- Blank detail specification - A template for creating a product-specific detail specification for a resistor family.
- Detail specification - The document that sets the exact identification, test schedule, and performance requirements for a specific component type.
- Classification level G - The level used for general electronic equipment in benign or moderate environmental conditions where function is the main requirement.
- Through-hole assembly (THT) - Mounting components through holes in a circuit board.
- Axial leads - Leads that extend from opposite ends of the resistor body along its axis.
- General electronic equipment - The equipment category named for level G use, including consumer products and telecommunication user terminals.
- Quality assessment procedures - The procedures used to assess resistor quality, referenced here through IEC 60115-1:2020, Annex Q.
Who uses SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026?
SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 is used by component manufacturers, specification writers, and standards committees that prepare detail specifications for fixed resistors. It is also relevant to quality managers, test laboratories, and buyers who need to check how a resistor family is identified, tested, and qualified.
It is most directly relevant in consumer products, telecommunication user terminals, and other general electronic equipment using axial-lead power resistors on circuit boards. For these users, the standard helps define what to document, what to test, and how to trace the resistor family to the right European and international references.
What changed in SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 from the previous edition?
SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 modifies EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026. The amendment changes the identification in subclause 0.3, revises the proposed title, replaces the text for Annex X, and adds Annex ZA and Annex ZX.
The foreword also records the reference mapping work around the earlier revision: clause, figure, and table numbering were changed, and Annex ZX supplies cross-references from EN 140201:1996 to EN IEC 60115-4-10:2024 and its notes.
Which standards are used with SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026?

| IEC 60115-1:2020 | Generic specification for fixed resistors; Annex Q is used for quality assessment procedures |
| IEC 60115-4:2022 | Sectional specification for power resistors for through-hole assembly on circuit boards or chassis |
| IEC 60115-4-10:2023 | The earlier blank detail specification that this amendment updates |
| IEC 60286-1 | Tape packaging of components with axial leads |
| IEC 60294 | Measurement of the dimensions of a cylindrical component with axial terminations |
| IEC 60301 | Preferred diameters of wire terminations of capacitors and resistors |

What does the SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 document contain?
SIST EN IEC 60115-4-10:2026/A11:2026 contains a European foreword, four explicit modification items, Annex ZA, and Annex ZX. The main technical content is the updated title block wording, the revised proposed title for the intended detail specification, and the new cross-reference material.
Annex ZX is especially practical because it gives cross-references for clauses, figures, and tables from the prior revision. It includes mappings for clause references, a derating curve figure reference, and table references, which helps users move from older documentation to the current numbering.
