30 FOREWORD

31 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising

32 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international

33 co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and

34 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,

35 Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their

36 preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with

37 may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising

38 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for

39 Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.

40 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international

41 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all

42 interested IEC National Committees.

43 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National

44 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC

45 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any

46 misinterpretation by any end user.

47 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications

48 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between

49 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.

50 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
