FOREWORD
The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization
1)
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to
promote international cooperation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and
electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards.
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. The IEC
collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with
conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters, prepared by technical committees on
2)
which all the National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as
possible, an international consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with.
They have the form of recommendations for international use published in the form of standards, technical
3)
reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
4)
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
International Standard IEC 917-2-2 has been prepared by subcommittee 48D: Mechanical
structures for electronic equipment, of IEC technical committee 48: Electromechanical
components and mechanical structures for electronic equipment.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

MODULAR ORDER FOR THE DEVELOPMENT
OF MECHANICAL STRUCTURES
FOR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT PRACTICES –
Part 2: Sectional specification – Interface co-ordination dimensions
for the 25 mm equipment practice -
Section 2: Detail specification – Dimensions for subracks, chassis,
backplanes, front panels and plug-in units
1 Scope
This section of IEC 917-2 is a detail specification which is to be used in whole or in part in
all fields of electronics where devices and systems are designed according to the
sectional specification IEC 917-2.
The purpose of this publication is the specification of dimensions which will ensure
mechanical interchangeability of subracks, chassis, plug-in units, backplanes and front
panels.
The sectional specification IEC 917-2 has embodied within it a number of subrack systems
based on 25 mm three-dimensional modularity and the binary additive principle for
subrack heights.
The dimensions in the tables of this detail specification are based on one of the subrack
systems taken from the sectional specification IEC 917-2. However, all subrack systems
within the sectional specification are valid in this detail specification, provided the relation-
ship between the dimensions is maintained, i.e. the dimensional difference between the
S0 ,
co-ordination dimensions HS, W and DS and dimensions H S0 , etc.; W etc., and Dso,
etc., shown in tables 1, 2 and 3 are to be maintained.
The subrack dimensions are related to certain cabinet/rack dimensions, see IEC 917-2-1.
The front panel dimensions are related to the mounting dimensions of certain cabinets and
racks, see IEC 917-2-1.
Plug-in units are mounted in subracks. They serve as supports for electrical, electronic
and mechanical components. The electrical connection between plug-in units and
subracks is based on the use of connectors.
All dimensions are given in millimetres and the drawings are first angle projections.

5 Dimensions
The subrack, chassis, backplane, front panel and plug-in unit dimensions for height, width
and depth have been taken from the relevant tables in IEC 917-2 (see 5.1.1.1). The
subracks, chassis, plug-in units, backplanes and front panels do not need to conform with
the figures illustrated; only the specified dimensions have to be applied. In the case of
unspecified dimensions and tolerances the manufacturer is free to choose according to his
requirements.
5.1 Subracks
The detail specification standardizes three types of subracks with interchangeability of all
types of plug-in units as shown in figure 1.
5.1.1 Type A subrack, connector application with backplane
Subracks designed according to type A shall be used for connector applications with a
subrack mounted backplane.
5.1.1.1 If other co-ordination dimensions are used then they shall be taken from IEC
917-2. In such cases, the relationship between co-ordination dimensions H s, Ws and Ds
and dimensions Hso , etc., Wso , etc., and Dso , etc., shown in tables la, lb, 2a, 2b and 3
shall be maintained. See IEC 917-2-1, subclause 4.1.4.
5.1.1.2 Other or additional mounting flange positions are to be on pitches of 25 mm
(n x mpl).
