Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 18278-2:2004), which has been
technically revised.
ISO 18278 consists of the following parts, under the general title Resistance welding — Weldability:

Introduction
This document describes procedures for evaluating the resistance spot welding weldability by
determining the welding current range and electrode life.
These procedures can be used to evaluate the following:
a) the effect of electrode material, shape, dimensions and electrode cooling;
b) the effect of material types and thicknesses and coatings being welded;
c) the effect of welding conditions;
d) the effect of welding equipment.
