CLC/SR 16 - Basic and safety principles for man-machine interface, marking and identification

Has the status of a basic safety publication in accordance with the principles given in IEC Guide 104 and ISO/IEC Guide 51. Provides general rules for the use of certain colours or numerals to identify conductors with the aim of avoiding ambiguity and ensuring safe operation. These conductors ma be applied in cables or cores, busbars, electrical equipment and installations. This edition has significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition. This includes addition of subclauses 5.3.4 to 5.3.6 - Use of bi-colour combinations, addition of subclause 6.2 - Identification of certain designated conductors, and addition of a new Annex A (informative) 'Identification of certain designated conductors by means of colour code and alphanumeric'.

This International Standard applies to the identification and marking of terminals of electrical equipment such as resistors, fuses, relays, contactors, transformers, rotating machines and, wherever applicable, to combinations of such equipment (e.g. assemblies). It also applies to the identification of terminations of certain designated conductors. This standard further includes general rules for an alphanumeric system. It has the status of a basic safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.

Applies to the identification and marking of terminals of electrical equipment such as resistors, fuses, relays, contactors, transformers, rotating machines and, whenever applicable, to combinations of such equipment (e.g. assemblies).
