53 FOREWORD
54 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
55 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
56 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
57 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
58 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
59 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
60 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
61 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
62 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
63 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
64 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
65 interested IEC National Committees.
66 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
67 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
68 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
69 misinterpretation by any end user.
70 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
71 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
72 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
73 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
74 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
75 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
76 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
77 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
78 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
79 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
80 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
81 Publications.
82 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
83 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
84 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
85 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
86 International standard IEC 61558-2-15 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 96:
87 Transformers, reactors, power supply units and combinations thereof.
88 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2011. It constitutes a

132 INTRODUCTION
133 IEC TC 96 has a group safety function in accordance with IEC Guide 104 for transformers other
134 than those intended to supply distribution networks, in particular transformers and power supply
135 units intended to allow the application of protective measures against electric shock as defined
136 by TC 64, but in certain cases including the limitation of voltage and horizontal safety function
137 for SELV, in accordance with IEC 60364-4-41.
138 The group safety function (GSF) is necessary because of responsibility for safety extra-low
139 voltage (SELV) in accordance with IEC 61140:2016, 5.2.6 and IEC 60364-4-41:2017, 414.3.1
140 or control circuits in accordance with IEC 60204-1:2016, 7.2.4.
141 The group safety function is needed for each part of IEC 61558-2 because different standards
142 of the IEC 61558 series can be combined in one construction but in certain cases with no
143 limitation of rated output power.
144 For example an auto-transformer in accordance with IEC 61558-2-13 can be designed with a
145 separate SELV-circuit in accordance with the particular requirements for IEC 61558-2-6 relating
146 to the general requirements of IEC 61558-1.
