Preparation of documents used in electrotechnology - Part 1: Rules (IEC 61082-1:2014)

This part of IEC 61082 establishes general rules and guidelines for the presentation of
information in documents, and specific rules for diagrams, drawings and tables used in
electrotechnology.
Excluded from this part of IEC 61082 are rules and guidelines for all kind of audio or video or
tactile presentations.
This horizontal standard is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
horizontal standards in the preparation of its publications. The contents of this horizontal
standard will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

Établissement des documents utilisés en électrotechnique - Partie 1: Règles (IEC 61082-1:2014)

NEW! IEC 61082-1:2014 est disponible sous forme de IEC Standards+ 61082-1:2014 qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L'IEC 61082-1:2014 définit des règles générales et sert de guide pour la présentation des informations dans les documents et  définit des règles particulières pour les schémas, les  dessins et les tableaux utilisés    en électrotechnique.  Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue   en 2006. Elle  constitue une révision technique et inclut les modifications suivantes:
- inclusion de règles de présentation pour les interconnexions sans fil;
- description de cas exceptionnels pour l'application de règles pour le positionnement des désignations de référence dans les schémas;
- correction d'erreurs et mise à jour des références normatives;
- harmonisation des définitions par rapport aux publications référencées. Cette norme horizontale est essentiellement destinée à l'usage des comités d'études dans la préparation des normes, conformément aux principes établis dans le Guide 108 de la CEI.

Priprava dokumentov za uporabo v elektrotehniki - 1. del: Pravila (IEC 61082-1:2014)

Ta del standarda IEC 61082 uvaja splošna pravila in smernice za pripravo informacij v dokumentih ter specifična pravila za diagrame, risbe in tabele, ki se uporabljajo v elektrotehniki. Ta del standarda IEC 61082 izključuje pravila in smernice za vse vrste zvočnih, video in otipnih predstavitev.
Ta horizontalni standard je namenjen predvsem tehničnim odborom za pripravo standardov v skladu z načeli vodila IEC Guide 108. Ena od pristojnosti tehničnih odborov je, da med pripravo publikacij uporabljajo horizontalne standarde, kadar je to primerno. Vsebina tega horizontalnega standarda se ne uporablja, razen če je izrecno navedena ali zajeta v ustreznih publikacijah.
