40 FOREWORD

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

42 national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-

43 operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to

44 other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available

45 Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical

46 committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work.

47 International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation.

48 IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions

49 determined by agreement between the two organizations.

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

51 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC

52 National Committees.

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

54 in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate,

55 IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user.

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

57 to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication

58 and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.

59 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment

60 declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.

61 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.

62 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of

63 its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any

64 nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the

65 publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.

66 8) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is

67 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

68 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights.

69 IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

70 International Standard IEC 61318 Ed.4 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 78: Live

71 working.

72 This fourth edition cancels and replaces the first edition which was issued as a technical report in

73 1994 with its Corrigendum 1 (2000), the second edition, withdrawn, which was issued as a standard in

74 2003 and the third edition issued as a standard in 2007. It includes the following significant technical

75 changes from the previous edition:

76 Change of the purpose of the document from a prescriptive testing standard to a standard assisting

77 the project team and the user in the conformance to respective product standards;

78 The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
78/xxx/FDIS 78/xxx/RVD

79 Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting

80 indicated in the above table.

81 This standard has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

102 1 Scope

103 This standard defines assessment methods for products to assure that they conform to the

104 requirements of the corresponding product.

105 The principles of conformity assessment for live working products are detailed in this standard to

106 assist product standard developers in prescribing the best means to achieve suitable quality of every

107 finished tool, device and piece of equipment.

108 The following elements are not covered by the present document, but are included in each product

109 standard:
110 - type tests;
111 - provisions and description for routine, sampling and acceptance tests;
112 - identification and classification of defects;
113 - risk analysis.

114 This standard does not cover conformity assessment of commercial shipments or certifications.

115 This standard is not a quality management system standard nor to be used for regulatory purposes.

184 4 General

185 Principles of conformity assessment for live working products are detailed in this standard to assist

186 product standard developers (manufacturers, users, etc.) in prescribing the best means to achieve

187 conformance to the standard requirements of every finished tool, device and piece of equipment.

188 Non-conformance to product standards may results in defects. Product defects are categorized into

189 three levels; critical, major and minor defects as defined in 3.

190 Conformity assessment involves tests, records of processes, sampling plans and quality control

191 documentation. The required records are determined through risk analysis, classification of defects

192 and corresponding methods of preventing these defects.

193 Conformity assessment records shall be kept by the manufacturer for at least five years and in

194 accordance with national or regional regulations.
195 5 Determination of defect type

196 In the application of this standard, every significant defect shall be determined and then classified

197 according to type.

198 In order to determine the type of defects applicable to each product, it is necessary to understand the

199 intended functionality. The properties required in the finish product relate to the application of the

200 product. Where these prope
