Fixed capacitors for use in electronic equipment - Part 14: Sectional specification - Fixed capacitors for electromagnetic interference suppression and connection to the supply mains

This part of IEC 60384 applies to capacitors and resistor-capacitor combinations which will be connected to an a.c. mains or other supply with nominal voltage not exceeding 1000 V a.c. (r.m.s.) or 1000 V d.c. and with a nominal frequency not exceeding 100 Hz.

La CEI 60384-14:2013 s'applique aux condensateurs et aux combinaisons condensateur/résistance qui sont connectés à un réseau d'alimentation en courant alternatif ou à une autre alimentation dont la tension nominale ne dépasse pas 1 000 V c.a. (efficace) ou 1 000 V c.c. et dont la fréquence nominale ne dépasse pas 100 Hz. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition publiée en 2005 dont elle constitue une révision technique. Toutes les modifications acceptées peuvent être classées comme des révisions mineures.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees i
