8 FOREWORD
9 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
10 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
11 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
12 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
13 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
14 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
15 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
16 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
17 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
18 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
19 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
20 interested IEC National Committees.21 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
22 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
23 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
24 misinterpretation by any end user.25 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
26 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
27 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
28 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
29 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
30 services carried out by independent certification bodies.31 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
32 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
33 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
34 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
35 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
36 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
37 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.38 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
39 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
40 International Standard IEC 60127-6 has been prepared by subcommittee 32C: Miniature fuses,
41 of IEC technical committee 32: Fuses.42 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2014.

65 INTRODUCTION
66 According to the wish expressed by the users of miniature fuses, all standards,
67 recommendations and other documents relating to miniature fuses should have the same
68 publication number in order to facilitate reference to fuses in other specifications, for example,
69 equipment specifications.70 Furthermore, a single publication number and subdivision into parts would facilitate the
71 establishment of new standards, because clauses and subclauses containing general
72 requirements need not be repeated.73 The new IEC 60127 series is thus subdivided as follows:
74 IEC 60127, Miniature fuses (general title)

76 fuse-links77 IEC 60127-2, Part 2: Cartridge fuse-links

85 IEC 60127-9 (free for further documents).
86 IEC 60127-10, Part 10: User guide for miniature fuses
87 This part of IEC 60127 covers requirements, test equipment and test methods for fuse-holders.
88 It is a self-standing document, which refers back to Part 1 with regard to certain definitions and
89 the atmospheric conditions for test. It also makes reference to other parts of IEC 60127 with
90 regard to dimensions and maximum power losses of fuse-links.---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
