Mechanical structures for electronic equipment - Tests for IEC 60917 and IEC 60297 - Part 2: Seismic tests for cabinets and racks
IEC 61587-2:2011 specifies seismic tests for cabinets and racks accommodated with IEC 60917 and 60297 series. It applies, in whole or in part, only to the mechanical structures of cabinets and racks for electronic equipment according to the above cited series of standards, while it does not apply to the electronic equipment or systems deemed to be installed within these mechanical structures. This standard does not apply either to a cabinet or a rack having an anti-seismic isolation structure, either external or internal. This standard aims to provide test conditions and criteria that constitute a reference to evaluate the ability of the mechanical structure of the cabinets or racks to acceptably withstand specified seismic intensities. For this purpose, this standard specifies test specimen conditions, such as dimensions (i.e. height, width and depth) of the cabinet and the rack, load distribution, structural test condition and the RRS (required response spectra) of single-axis or tri-axis acceleration as the seismic test wave condition. The single-axis or tri-axis acceleration is selectable. The second edition of this standard replaces the first edition published in 2000 and constitutes a technical revision. The main technical changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows: Edition 1.0 specified the test condition with one size of the cabinet, and one load distribution. The specified acceleration condition for the test specimen was single-axis and one of the RRS (required response spectra) specified in the standard was selected. The test was aimed to obtain the reference for the structural strength of the enclosure against the specified seismic intensity. Earthquakes are actually random phenomena that are much more carefully simulated by tri-axial simultaneous operation. The demand of tri-axial excitation has emerged as a more accurate representation of an earthquake.

Structures mecaniques pour équipements électroniques - Essais pour la CEI 60917 et la CEI 60297 - Partie 2: Essais sismiques pour baies et bâtis
La CEI 61587-2:2011 spécifie les essais sismiques pour les baies et les bâtis des séries CEI 60917 et 60297. Elle s'applique, totalement ou partiellement, seulement aux structures mécaniques des baies et des bâtis pour les équipements électroniques conformes aux séries de normes précitées, mais elle ne s'applique pas aux équipements ou systèmes électroniques destinés à être installés à l'intérieur de ces structures mécaniques. La présente norme ne s'applique pas non plus à une baie ou un bâti équipé d'une structure d'isolation anti-sismique, qu'elle soit externe ou interne. La présente norme est destinée à fournir des conditions et des critères d'essai qui constituent une référence pour évaluer l'aptitude de la structure mécanique des baies ou des bâtis à résister de manière acceptable à des intensités sismiques spécifiées. Dans ce but, la présente norme spécifie des conditions pour le spécimen en essai, comme les dimensions (c'est-à-dire hauteur, largeur et profondeur) de la baie et du bâti, la répartition de charge, la condition de l'essai structurel et le SRS (spectre de réponse spécifié) de l'accélération à axe unique ou sur les trois axes comme condition d'onde d'essai sismique. Il est possible de choisir entre accélération à axe unique ou sur les trois axes. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2000, dont elle constitue une révision technique. Les principaux changements techniques par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivants: L'édition 1.0 spécifiait la condition d'essai avec une taille de baie et une répartition des charges. La condition d'accélération spécifiée pour le spécimen soumis à l'essai était monoaxiale et un des SRS (spectre de réponse spécifié) spécifiés dans la norme était choisi. L'essai était destiné à obtenir la référence pour la résistance structurelle de l'enveloppe par rapport à l'intensité sismique spécifiée. Les tremblements de terre sont réellement des phénomènes aléatoires qui sont bien mieux simulés par un fonctionnement sur les trois axes simultané. Le besoin d'une excitation sur les trois axes a émergé pour une évaluation plus approfondie des tremblements de terre.

Overview
EN 61587-2:2011 (IEC 61587-2:2011) defines seismic test procedures for the mechanical structures of electronic equipment cabinets and racks built to the IEC 60297 (19 in) and IEC 60917 modular series. The standard addresses how to set up test specimens, apply seismic excitation (single‑axis or tri‑axis), and evaluate structural performance. It applies only to the mechanical enclosure or rack structure - not to the electronic equipment installed inside - and excludes cabinets with anti‑seismic isolation systems.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and applicability: Seismic qualification for cabinet/rack mechanical structures in accordance with IEC 60917 and IEC 60297; exclusion of anti‑seismic isolation designs and installed equipment.
- Test specimen conditions: Specification of specimen dimensions (height, width, depth) and load distribution to represent realistic installation conditions.
- Seismic excitation modes: Option to perform single‑axis or tri‑axis acceleration tests. The second edition adds formal tri‑axial excitation to better simulate real earthquake behavior.
- Required Response Spectra (RRS): Defines RRS waveforms and time‑history shapes used as input acceleration for seismic testing (selectable per test plan).
- Test setup and measurements: Guidance on mounting cabinets/racks to vibration tables, sensor placement, and measurement items to monitor structural response during and after tests.
- Assessment criteria: Post‑test inspection and evaluation procedures to determine whether the mechanical structure has acceptably withstood the selected seismic intensity.
Practical applications
EN 61587-2:2011 is used for:
- Manufacturers of racks, enclosures and 19‑inch cabinet systems to demonstrate structural robustness in seismic regions.
- Test laboratories performing seismic qualification and vibration testing for mechanical structures.
- Design and compliance engineers specifying cabinet/rack performance requirements for data centers, telecom shelters, industrial control rooms and other critical infrastructure.
- Procurement and specification teams requiring objective test references for supplier acceptance in earthquake‑prone locations.
Benefits include standardized test conditions, repeatable evaluation criteria and improved realism when using tri‑axial excitation to replicate earthquake effects.

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 61587-2 has been prepared by subcommittee 48D: Mechanical
structures for electronic equipment, of IEC technical committee 48: Electromechanical
components and mechanical structures for electronic equipment.
The second edition of this standard replaces the first edition issued in 2000 and constitutes a
technical revision.
The main technical changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows:
Edition 1.0 specified the test condition with one size of the cabinet, and one load distribution.
The specified acceleration condition for the test specimen was single-axis and one of the RRS
(required response spectra) specified in the standard was selected. The test was aimed to
obtain the reference for the structural strength of the enclosure against the specified seismic
intensity. Earthquakes are actually random phenomena that are much more carefully
simulated by tri-axial simultaneous operation. The demand of tri-axial excitation has emerged
as a more accurate representation of an earthquake.

기사 제목: SIST EN 61587-2:2012 - 전자 장비용 기계 구조물 - IEC 60917 및 IEC 60297을 위한 시험 - 파트 2: 캐비닛 및 랙을 위한 지진 시험 기사 내용: IEC 61587-2:2011은 IEC 60917 및 60297 시리즈와 관련된 캐비닛 및 랙을 위한 지진 시험을 규정합니다. 이는 전자 장비용 캐비닛 및 랙의 기계 구조물에만 적용되며, 이러한 기계 구조물에 설치된 전자 장비나 시스템에는 적용되지 않습니다. 이 표준은 외부 또는 내부에 안진 구조를 가진 캐비닛이나 랙에도 적용되지 않습니다. 이 표준은 캐비닛이나 랙의 기계 구조물이 지정된 지진 강도를 받을 수 있는 능력을 평가하기 위한 참조 기준으로서의 시험 조건과 기준을 제공하기 위해 목적을 가지고 있습니다. 이를 위해 이 표준은 캐비닛 및 랙의 치수 (높이, 너비, 깊이), 하중 분배, 구조 시험 상태 및 단축 또는 삼축 가속도로 구성된 지진 시험 파형 조건과 같은 시험 시료 조건을 명시합니다. 단축 또는 삼축 가속도는 선택 가능합니다. 이 표준의 두 번째 판은 2000년에 발행된 첫 번째 판을 대체하며 기술 개정으로 구성됩니다. 이전 판과 비교하여 주요한 기술적 변경 사항은 다음과 같습니다: 1.0 판에서는 캐비닛의 한 가지 크기와 하중 분배를 가진 시험 조건이 명시되었습니다. 시험 시료에 대한 지정 가속도 조건은 단축 가속도이며, 표준에서 지정된 RRS(필요한 반응 스펙트럼) 중 하나가 선택되었습니다. 이 시험은 지정된 지진 강도에 대한 캐비닛의 구조적 강도에 대한 참고 자료를 얻기 위한 것이었습니다. 지진은 사실상 무작위 현상으로, 삼축 동시 작동으로 더욱 정확하게 모사됩니다. 삼축 활성화의 요구가 지진을 더 정확하게 대표하는 것으로 부상했습니다.
The article discusses the standard specification for seismic tests for cabinets and racks used in electronic equipment. The standard, IEC 61587-2:2011, applies to the mechanical structures of cabinets and racks but not to the electronic equipment inside them or any anti-seismic isolation structures. The purpose of the standard is to provide test conditions and criteria to evaluate the ability of cabinets and racks to withstand specified seismic intensities. The second edition of the standard introduces changes such as the inclusion of tri-axis acceleration as a more accurate representation of earthquakes.
記事のタイトル: SIST EN 61587-2:2012 - 電子機器のための機械構造 - IEC 60917およびIEC 60297のための試験 - パート2：キャビネットとラックのための地震試験 記事内容: IEC 61587-2:2011は、IEC 60917および60297シリーズに適合するキャビネットおよびラックのための地震試験を規定しています。この規格は、上記の規格に従って電子機器用のキャビネットおよびラックの機械構造にのみ適用され、これらの機械構造内に設置される電子機器やシステムには適用されません。また、地震対策としてのキャビネットやラックも対象外です。この規格は、キャビネットやラックの機械構造が指定された地震の力に耐える能力を評価するための参照基準となるテスト条件と基準を提供することを目的としています。そのため、この規格ではキャビネットおよびラックの寸法（高さ、幅、奥行き）、荷重分布、構造試験条件、地震試験波形としての単軸または三軸加速度の必要な応答スペクトル（RRS）などの試験試料の条件を指定しています。単軸または三軸加速度は選択可能です。この規格の第2版は、2000年に発行された第1版を置き換えており、技術的見直しとなっています。以前の版と比較して、主な技術的変更は次のとおりです：1.0版では、キャビネットの一つのサイズと荷重分布が指定された試験条件でした。試験試料の指定された加速度条件は単軸であり、規格で指定されたRRSのうちの一つが選択されました。この試験は、指定された地震の強度に対するキャビネットの構造強度の参考資料を得るためのものでした。地震は実際にはランダムな現象であり、三軸同時動作によるより正確な地震の再現が求められるようになりました。
