101 FOREWORD
102 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
103 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
104 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
105 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
106 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
107 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
108 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
109 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
110 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
111 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
112 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
113 interested IEC National Committees.
114 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
115 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
116 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
117 misinterpretation by any end user.
118 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
119 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
120 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
121 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
122 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
123 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
124 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
125 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
126 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
127 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
128 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
129 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
130 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
131 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
132 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
133 International Standard IEC 60393-3 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 40:
134 Capacitors and resistors for electronic equipment.
135 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1992 and constitutes a
136 technical revision.
137 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
138 edition:
139 a) revised all parts of the document based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2018 (eighth
140 edition) and harmonized with other similar kinds of documents.
141 b) The document structure has been organized to follow new sectional specification structure
142 decided in TC 40
143 c) revision of the information on the assessment level EZ (zero nonconforming);
144 The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:

245 The drawing shall give the following details:
246 – the dimensions of the shaft and bush. These may be given either on the outline drawing or by
247 reference to IEC 60915;
248 – any locating devices;
249 – the total mechanical travel;
250 – the effective electrical travel;
251 – the angle of ineffective mechanical travel;
252 – the dimensions and the location of terminals;
253 – the dimensions which shall be measured in accordance with IEC 60393-1:2008, 4.4.2;
254 – any other dimensional information which will adequately describe the potentiometer.
255 All dimensions shall preferably be stated in millimetres, however, when the original dimensions
256 are given in inches, the converted metric dimensions in millimetres shall be added.
257 When the potentiometer is not designed for use on printed boards, this shall be clearly indicated
258 in the detail specification.
259 4.3 Preferred climatic categories
260 The potentiometers covered by this specification are classified into climatic categories
261 according to the general rules given in IEC 60068-1:2013, Annex A.
262 The lower and upper category temperature and the duration of the damp heat, steady state test
263 shall be chosen from the following:
264 Lower category temperature: -55 °C, -40 °C and -10 °C.
265 Upper category temperature: +85 °C, +100 °C and +125 °C.
266 Duration of the damp heat, steady state test: 21 and 56 days.
267 The severities for the cold and dry heat tests are the lower and upper category temperatures
268 respectively. Because of the construction of some potentiometers these temperatures will occur
269 between two of the preferred temperatures given in IEC 60068-2-1:2007 and IEC 60068-2-
270 2:2007. In this case the nearest preferred temperature within the actual temperature range of
271 the potentiometer shall be chosen for this severity.

315 that special mounting fixtures are required. In this case, the detail specification shall describe
316 the mounting fixtures that shall be used for the voltage proof and the insulation resistance tests
317 and for the application of the vibration and bump or shock tests. For the latter tests the mounting
318 shall be such that there shall be no parasitic vibration.
