ISO/TC 10/SC 10/WG 10 - Reference designation system

ISO/TS 81346-3 establishes comprehensive and practice-oriented principles and rules for the designation of technical objects within a system, as well as for the designation of connections, signals and documents in accordance with the corresponding basic standards. The principles of ISO/TS 81346-3 apply to all technical fields for all industries and can be applied in all phases of the life cycle of a technical object. The designation of types, individuals, cost-centres, projects, etc. is not covered.

ISO/TS 16952-10:2008 contains sector-specific stipulations for structuring principles and reference designation rules on technical products and technical product documentation of power plants. It applies in combination with ISO/TS 16952-1, IEC/PAS 62400 and VGB B 101 for the classification of systems and objects, and for function-, product- and location-specific designation of technical products and their documentation for power plants. It specifies the designation blocks for the clear identification and localization of the technical products, which are used for their labelling in the plant, for their designation in technical documents and for the designation of the technical documents as well. ISO/TS 16952-10:2008 encompasses the process of energy conversion. The specifications in ISO/TS 16952-10:2008 apply for the power plant process, for the primary energy supply and final products distribution, as well as for auxiliary media and auxiliary energy supply, waste materials and waste energy disposal. ISO/TS 16952-10:2008 is not applicable to recovery of the primary energy and the media for supplying the process, nor to the processing of residues from process disposal (e.g. gypsum, slag products, waste water, etc.).

ISO/TS 16952-1:2006 establishes comprehensive and practice-oriented principles and rules for the designation of technical objects within a system, as well as for the designation of connections, signals and documents in accordance with the corresponding basic standards. The principles of ISO/TS 16952-1:2006 apply to all technical fields for all industries and can be applied in all phases of the life cycle of a technical object. ISO/TS 16952-1:2006 serves as the basis for sector-specific parts of ISO/TS 16952 and thus forms the connecting element between them and the basic IEC 61346 series. The designation of types, individuals, cost-centres, projects, etc. is not covered by ISO/TS 16952-1:2006.
