This part of IEC 62656 specifies a web service interface to exchange data parcel(s)
conformant to IEC 62656-1, between a parcel server and a parcel client or between parcel
servers. This interface comprises three basic services: a registration service, resolution
service and subscription service.
This document includes the following:
– holistic use scenario;
– detailed specification of the three basic services;
– JSON [1] and XML [5] notation schemas for data parcel(s).
The following items are outside the scope of this document:
– user identification and authorization;
– query language for a data parcel;
– transportation protocol;
– data and communication security techniques.

This International Standard establishes minimum requirements and general rules on marking
electric equipment with ratings and other characteristics to enable the proper and safe
selection and installation of electric equipment related to any supply of electricity.
The object of this document is to:
• provide general requirements for the marking of the characteristics related to any supply
system, such as voltage, current, frequency and power, without any restrictions;
• provide technical committees with uniform methods for the marking of electrical ratings of
products.
This document is primarily intended for application by technical committees when specifying
minimum markings of ratings related to any electrical supply of equipment, sub-assemblies
and components, but it is also for application by product manufacturers for marking their
products.
NOTE For further markings see ISO/IEC Guide 51.
This horizontal standard is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
horizontal standards in the preparation of its publications. The contents of this horizontal
standard will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

Transfer of the IEC/IEEE 82079-1 (replacement of IEC 82079-1:2012) to an equivalent EN (replacement of EN 82079-1:2012).

This Standard establishes classification schemes with defined object classes and their associated letter codes, and is primarily intended for use in reference designations and for designation of generic types. The classification schemes are applicable for objects in all technical disciplines and all branches of industry. This document is a horizontal publication also intended for use by technical committees in preparation of publications related to reference designations in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.

This part of IEC 61360 specifies principles for the definition of the properties and associated
attributes and explains the methods for representing verbally defined concepts with
appropriate data constructs available from IEC 61360-2. It also specifies principles for
establishing a hierarchy of classification from a collection of classes, each of which
represents a technical concept in the electrotechnical domain or a domain related to
electrotechnology.
The use of this document facilitates the exchange of technical data through a defined
structure for the information to be exchanged in a computer-sensible form. Each property to
be exchanged has an unambiguously defined meaning and consistent naming, where relevant
a defined value list, a prescribed format and defined units of measure for all quantitative
values. There is also provision for:
a) control of changes to definitions of the properties through version and revision numbers;
b) inclusion of notes and remarks to clarify and help in the application of the definitions;
c) indication of the sources of definitions and value lists;
d) associated figures and formulae.
NOTE IEC TCs and SCs, or other organizations can take this document as a basis for the development of their
own dictionaries.
Out of scope of this document are subjects concerning the information technology
infrastructure such as:
– security;
– database locking mechanisms;
– access rights management.

This document 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), and also applies to the
identification of terminations of certain designated conductors. It also provides general rules
for the use of certain colours or alphanumeric notations to identify conductors with the aim of
avoiding ambiguity and ensuring safe operation. These conductor colours or alphanumeric
notations are intended to be applied in cables or cores, busbars, electrical equipment and
installations.
This basic safety publication is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and
ISO/IEC Guide 51.
It is not intended for use by manufacturers or certification bodies. One of the responsibilities
of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of basic safety publications in
the preparation of its publications. The requirements of this basic safety publication will not
apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

This part of IEC 62656 specifies a method for representing activities and relations among the
activities by a tabular ontology representation, called “parcellized activity model” or PAM for
short, which is a specialized use of a generic tabular ontology data model, known as the
parcellized ontology model (POM) defined in Part 1 of the IEC 62656 series. The activities
that can be described by this document include part or whole of an enterprise, an organization
or a collection of services, a set of events or processes which interact with each other by
exchanging physical or non-physical entities. This part of IEC 62656 also defines a method for
uniquely identifying activities, or their homologues happenings in a certain sequence. In
addition, this document identifies flows of information, objects or materials exchanged among
activities, where each of the activities is represented by a class and each flow by a relation.
Consequently, this document enables characterization, classification, and identification of a
set of activities as part of a normalized ontology. And this enables registering of a pattern of
activities as a set of metadata and uploading it onto the IEC 61360 Common Data Dictionary
(CDD), maintained as an online database of the electrotechnical concepts.
Additionally, this part of IEC 62656 provides a method to integrate ontologies of products and
activities including services, in a single model. This means a product can be analyzed in its
operational context for service. Such an integrated view will help people of different technical
backgrounds to see and share knowledge about the extent of an enterprise that requires the
products and services as indispensable resources. Such a data representation will also help
analyse the key functionalities of an enterprise and its available resources, with clear
definitions, limitations and interactions among them, when people are required to respond or
react to a new external condition or situation in a short time frame, in particular, at an
emergency or natural hazard.
Meanwhile, this part of IEC62656 does not intend to provide a detailed algorithmic description
of a flow of information, timing chart of processes, or sequential ordering of events that will be
necessary in a software design or programming phase of an information system that handles
activities or events. These detailed specifications of the algorithms and associated
construction of the data structures are left to the realm of software engineering methodology
and tools where there are so many schools and styles already, such as UML (Unified
Modelling Language), BPMN, SysML, DFD, IDEF, and other CASE (Computer Aided Software
Engineering) tools.
This International Standard neither intends to standardize nor introduce a new method of
graphic description for activities or processes. Ideally, an ontology of activities modelled by
this International Standard must be expressible by a number of existing graphical presentation
tools and process description languages for activities.
Nevertheless, some graphical presentations in the style of such tools or languages are helpful
for making the people understand the content of the PAM, and therefore, they are used in this
International Standard. In most of the cases, IDEF-0 is preferred for the purpose, because it
describes both activities and flows of things among the activities, but any other choices of
tools or languages can be made, wherever they are appropriate and relevant.

The IEC 62569 series defines principles and methods for the specification of objects by object
properties, for example in data sheets, by utilizing predefined and internationally standardized
(dictionary) properties residing in the data dictionary of IEC 61360.
The IEC 62569 series is being developed to transfer the former paper-based applications of
blank detail specifications or product descriptions towards supporting electronic business
allowing the evaluation and management of described items by computers.
This part of IEC 62569 specifies several qualifiers to be used with object or (dictionary)
properties and their values indicating life cycle and other aspects of the property. It is a
prerequisite for the usage of the other parts of IEC 62569.

This part of IEC 61360 provides guidance for the definition of concepts that are used to
describe classes and properties submitted for update of the content of IEC Common Data
Dictionary (IEC CDD). This includes
– a basic understanding of key concepts and procedures used within IEC CDD;
– a binding reference for quality control of IEC 61360 compliant dictionary content;
– guidance on documents where necessary in-depth knowledge can be acquired (see
Clause 2 and Annex D).
This part of IEC 61360 includes the following subjects:
– basic overview about fundamental concepts of IEC 61360;
– formulating definitions and other textual elements;
– overview of IEC maintenance procedure for IEC CDD;
– checklist for providing input to the IEC CDD content.

This part of IEC 61175 provides rules for the composition of designations for the identification
of signals and signal connections. This includes the designation of power supply.
This part of IEC 61175 is applicable to all types of signals within an industrial system,
installation and equipment and industrial products. It deals with the information aspect of
signals and not with their physical implementation.
Excluded from the scope are general rules for the presentation of information in human
machine interfaces. This part of IEC 61175 is also not applicable for the identification of
wiring, terminals, piping and other hardware connections.
NOTE For the purpose of marking of wires, see IEC 62491.
This horizontal standard is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
horizontal standards in the preparation of its publications. The contents of this horizontal
standard will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

This part of IEC 62656 specifies an interface between IEC 62656 series and meta-model for
CIM originally defined in IEC 61968 and IEC 61970 series of standards. The current CIM
includes IEC 62325 series and the interface specified in this part of IEC 62656 also applies to
the model defined in IEC 62325-301:2014. More specifically, this standard defines a formal
mapping between the IEC 62656 and meta-model for CIM in order to import the CIM ontology
into the IEC CDD, and to ensure the interoperability of ontologies of two standards, or even
among a wider spectrum of standards. For the basis of the mapping from CIM to the data
model defined in IEC 62656-1, the UML representation of CIM is referenced.
As a result of the interface specification available from this part of IEC 62656, the smart grid
ontology defined in CIM becomes accessible and interoperable in the midst of ontology pieces
originating in other ontology standards, encompassing material, environmental, and
mechanical, and logistic domains of information. In addition, the specification may also cover
the lifecycle of products.
This part of IEC 62656 also defines methods for transforming the IEC CDD content into the
format defined in IEC 61968 and IEC 61970 series. However, this standard does not intend
any standardization of the elements defined in IEC CDD as part of the CIM ontology, for all
the definitions of IEC CDD are already part of an acknowledged horizontal International
Standard known as IEC 61360-4-DB. Rather it makes the pieces of information stored in IEC
CDD available for further standardization or customization in power electric domains or more
specific user communities as a basic resource, in particular for the purpose of extending the
CIM series of standards.
The data model of this part is based on IEC 62656-1 which specifies the logical structure for a
data parcel, or just simply “parcel,” that is a short name for the medium of registering or
transferring of product ontology. Such a parcel may be typically implemented in a leaf of a
spreadsheet. The data model built on a set of parcels is called “parcellized ontology model”,
which is often abbreviated as “POM” in the remainder of this document.
This part of IEC 62656 specifies:
• the mapping rules and principles for importing CIM UML objects into POM;
• the syntactic and semantic requirements on the parcellized CIM objects;
• the piecewise version control mechanism in POM for the parcellized CIM objects.
The following items are outside the scope of this part of IEC 62656:
• definition of the interface between CIM UML and CIM RDF;
• specification of syntactic and semantic requirements on CIM UML;
• specification of syntactic and semantic requirements on CIM RDF.

This part of IEC 62656 specifies the logical structure for a set of spreadsheets, used as “data
parcels”, to define, transfer and register product ontologies. Such ontology descriptions in
other literatures or disciplines are sometimes called “reference dictionaries”. Thus the logical
data structure described in this standard is named “Parcellized Ontology Model” or “POM” for
short, and each vehicle of transport of the model is called a “parcel”, and may be used for
definition, transfer, and registering of a reference dictionary as a collection of metadata, or for
similar purposes for instances belonging to a certain class of the reference dictionary.
Moreover, this ontology model allows for modelling or modifying an ontology model per se as
a set of instance data, thus it enables an ontology model to evolve over time.
This part of IEC 62656 also includes a standard mapping between the meta-data of dictionary
parcels in the spreadsheet format conforming to this standard and the meta-data represented
in IEC 61360-2 compliant EXPRESS model for dictionary exchange.
It is assumed that a tool supporting this part of IEC 62656 may read and write a set of
spreadsheet data whose semantics and syntax are defined in this part of standard, where the
physical file structure of the spreadsheets may be based on the CSV (Comma Separated
Values) format, typically used in a commercial spreadsheet application, or any other tabular
formats including XML schema compatible or convertible to the CSV format.
The spreadsheet interface structure defined in this part of IEC 62656 contains the following:
– Definition and specification of the logical structure and layout of the spreadsheet interface
for definition, transfer, and registering of a reference dictionary;
– Definition and specification of library instance data belonging to a class of a reference
dictionary described by a set of spreadsheets conformant to this part of IEC 62656;
– Definition and specification of the meta dictionary that enables the definition and transfer
of a reference dictionary as a set of instance data conforming to the meta dictionary;
– Definition and specification of the meta-model as data that enables the definition and
transfer of a reference dictionary as a set of instance data conforming to the meta-metadictionary
– Specification of the mapping between the dictionary data expressed in the spreadsheet
format and the EXPRESS model specified by IEC 61360-2/ISO 13584-42 (with some
elements of ISO 13584-25);
– Description of the basic semantic mapping between the dictionary data expressed in the
spreadsheet formats defined in this part of IEC 62656 and that of DIN 4002.
The following items are outside the scope of this part of IEC 62656:
– Explanation of the CSV format per se, used in spreadsheet applications;
– Presentation of the data parcels conformant to this part of IEC 62656, such as colouring
and sizing of the spreadsheets;
– Specification of the dictionary EXPRESS model conformant to IEC 61360 or ISO 13584
series of standards;
– Normative definition of the mappings between an IEC 61360-ISO 13584 compliant
dictionary and another that is based upon a standard other than IEC 61360-ISO 13584; – Specification of the maintenance procedure of this part of IEC 62656.
This standard is closely related with ISO 13584-35, and developed as a superset or
generalisation of the latter. A major difference with the ISO 13584-35 is that this IEC standard
enables updates and evolutions in a meta dictionary consisting of meta classes, by which the
changes and evolution of an ontology model is realised as an update and modification of the
meta dictionary, just by updates and modifications of the instances of the meta-meta
dictionary. With this capability, mapping and interfacing with other ontology standards are
also facilitated.

This part of IEC 61082 establishes general rules and guidelines for the presentation of
information in documents, and specific rules for diagrams, drawings and tables used in
electrotechnology.
Excluded from this part of IEC 61082 are rules and guidelines for all kind of audio or video or
tactile presentations.
This horizontal standard is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
horizontal standards in the preparation of its publications. The contents of this horizontal
standard will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

This international standard provides generic rules for the representation of states of objects
by graphical symbols standardized in IEC 60617, ISO 14617, IEC 60417, for example, and for
future graphical symbols included in these standards.
NOTE 1 Graphical symbols in IEC 60617, ISO 14617 and IEC 60417 are mostly presented with a single graphic,
not representing the different operational states of objects occurring during their life cycle, e.g. in operation, of the
object that the graphical symbol represents.
NOTE 2 The graphical symbols in IEC 60617 and ISO 14617 are – at the time of writing of the first edition of this
standard – generally shown in the operational state “not energized”.
NOTE 3 Within the different periods of an object within its life cycle, i.e. design, manufacturing, operation,
disposal, each period counts with different states. However, this standard focuses only on those states occurring
during the active operation period from an object put into service until it is taken out of service.
This horizontal standard has the purpose of:
• ensuring the coherence of the corpus of standardization documents;
• avoiding duplication of work and contradictory requirements.
The standard provides operational states of an object as examples that typically occur and
which need to be represented by standardized graphical symbols and defines generic rules to
be applied. It specifies which types of presentation facilities are recommended to present the
different operational states to humans.
States concerning the different types of alarm, their classification and management are not
dealt with in this standard.
This standard does neither define rules for the design of static graphical symbols for
diagrams as provided in IEC 61082 and the ISO/IEC 81714 series nor for icons and graphical
symbols for use on equipment as provided in IEC 60417, ISO 7000 and in the ISO/IEC
11581 series.
This horizontal standard is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the
preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 108.
One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of
horizontal standards in the preparation of its publications. The content of this horizontal
standard will not apply unless specifically referred to or included in the relevant publications.

This International Standard defines the GRAFCET1 specification language for the functional description of the behaviour of the sequential part of a control system. This standard specifies the symbols and rules for the graphical representation of this language, as well as for its interpretation. This standard has been prepared for automated production systems of industrial applications. However, no particular area of application is excluded. Methods of development of a specification that makes use of GRAFCET are beyond the scope of this standard. One method is for example the "SFC language" specified in IEC 61131-3, which defines a set of programming languages for programmable controllers.

This part of IEC 61360 series provides a formal model for data according to the scope as given in IEC 61360-1 and ISO 13584-42, and thus provides a means for the computersensible representation and exchange of such data. The intention is to provide a common information model for the work of IEC SC3D and ISO TC184/SC4, thus allowing for the implementation of dictionary systems dealing with data delivered according to either of the standards elaborated by both committees. The scope of this part of IEC 61360 is the common ISO/IEC dictionary schema based on the intersection of the scopes of the two base standards IEC 61360-1 and ISO 13584-42. The presented EXPRESS model represents a common formal model for the two standards and facilitates a harmonization of both. The IEC 61360-2 forms the master document. ISO 13584-42 contains a copy of the IEC 61360-2 EXPRESS model in an informative annex In a number of clauses, where the common EXPRESS model allows more freedom, IEC has defined more restrictions which are found in the methodology part of IEC 61360-1. Two schemas are provided in this part of IEC 61360 defining the two options that may be selected for an implementation. Each of these options is referred to as a conformance class.  The ISO13584_IEC61360_dictionary_schema2 provides for modelling and exchanging technical data element types with associated classification scheme used in the data element type definitions. It constitutes conformance class 1 of this part of IEC 61360.
The ISO13584_IEC61360_language_resource_schema provides resources for permitting strings in various languages. It has been extracted from the dictionary schema, since it could be used in other schemata. It is largely based on the support_resource_schema from ISO 10303-41:2000, and can be seen as an extension to that. It allows for the usage of one specific language throughout an exchange context (physical file) without the overhead introduced when multiple languages are used. When used together with ISO 10303-21, each schema defines one single exchange format. The exchange format defined by conformance class 1 is fully compatible with the ISO 13584 series.

This part of IEC 82079 provides general principles and detailed requirements for the design and formulation of all types of instructions for use that will be necessary or helpful for users of products of all kinds, ranging from a tin of paint to large or highly complex products, such as large industrial machinery, turnkey based plants or buildings. NOTE The term "product" as defined in 3.29 relates to consumer, non-consumer, electrical, electronic, electromechanical, mechanical and other products. This part is intended for all parties involved in the preparation of instructions for use, for example:
- Suppliers, technical writers, technical illustrators, software designers, translators or other people engaged in the work of conceiving and drafting such instructions for use;
This part of IEC 82079 does not specify a fixed amount of documentation that has to be delivered with a product. This is obviously not possible because this part is applicable to all kinds of products. The amount of documentation required, will depend on the nature of the product, its complexity and the skills of the intended users.

This International Standard provides rules and guidelines for the presentation of information in object lists, and specific rules for such documents. It is applicable to object lists such as parts lists, function lists and location lists used in the design and engineering process intended to be supplied with the documentation.

This international standard provides rules for applying a method of structuring technical information and documentation by using a main document (leading document) for the clustering of the information for each object.

International Standard 80416 is a multi-part standard which provides principles and guidelines for the creation and application of graphical symbols for use on equipment. This part of IEC 80416 provides guidelines for the application of graphical symbols for use on equipment in order to maintain visual clarity and overall consistency when such graphical symbols are applied. It stipulates the permissible extent by which a symbol original may be modified in reproduction for actual use on equipment.

This part of IEC 62507 specifies basic requirements for systems for the identification of objects (such as products, “items”, documents, etc., excluding human individuals). It focuses on assigning identifiers to an object for referencing purposes. The classification of objects for any and whatever reason and the verification that an object is really the object it claims to be, are excluded. This standard includes recommendations for the human readable presentation of identifiers and its machine readable representation, to be considered when constructing the identifiers and identification numbers. The standard includes also requirements for the application of identifiers in a computer sensible form in accordance with such systems, and requirements for their interchange. The specification of the physical file or transfer format (syntax) for a machine to machine information interchange is not included, nor is the specification and transfer formats for the implementation by a physical medium, e.g. file, bar code, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), used for information interchange and the identification labelling on an object included.

This International Standard establishes general principles for the identification of terminals of objects within a system, applicable to all technical areas (for example mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, construction engineering, process engineering). They can be used for systems based on different technologies or for systems combining several technologies. Requirements for marking of terminal designations on products are not part of this publication.

This part of International Standard 81346, published jointly by IEC and ISO defines classes and subclasses of objects based on a purpose- or task-related view of the objects, together with their associated letter codes to be used in reference designations. The classification is applicable for objects in all technical areas, e.g. electrical, mechanical and civil engineering as well as all branches of industry, e.g. energy, chemical industry, building technology, shipbuilding and marine technology, and can be used by all technical disciplines in any design process.

This part of IEC 81346, published jointly by IEC and ISO, establishes general principles for the structuring of systems including structuring of the information about systems. Based on these principles, rules and guidance are given for the formulation of unambiguous reference designations for objects in any system. The reference designation identifies objects for the purpose of creation and retrieval of information about an object, and where realized about its corresponding component. A reference designation labelled at a component is the key to find information about that object among different kinds of documents. The principles are general and are applicable to all technical areas (for example mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, construction engineering, process engineering). They can be used for systems based on different technologies or for systems combining several technologies.

This part of IEC 80416 provides basic principles and guidelines for the creation of graphical symbols for registration, and provides the key principles and rules for the preparation of title, description and note(s). IEC 80416-1 applies to graphical symbols used: - to identify the equipment or a part of the equipment (for example, controls or displays); - to indicate functional states or functions (for example, on, off, alarm); - to designate connections (for example, terminals, filling points); - to provide information on packaging (for example, identification of content, instructions for handling); - to provide instructions for the operation of the equipment (for example, Iimitations of use).

This standard provides rules and guidelines for the labelling of cables and cores/conductors used in industrial installations, equipment and products, in order to maintain a clear relation between the technical documentation and the actual equipment and for other purposes. The following methods are described and designated: - use of coloured cables and designated cores; - additional identification labelling; - additional connection labelling; and - additional signal labelling. The physical design of the labels, the material to be used for the labels as well as cable manufacturers' product bound marking of cables and cores are not part of this standard.

This International Standard provides rules  and guidelines for the classification and  designation of documents. It serves as a  basis for agreements about the preparation of  a structured documentation, primarily  required for larger installations, for example  plants with their systems and equipment.

This part of International Standard 81714 specifies requirements for graphical symbols to be included in a reference symbol library in a computer sensible form, and requirements for their interchange among computer aided tools. The reference symbol library may be used as a basis for the design and editing of documents, and for the interchange of documents and graphical symbol libraries among computer-aided tools. The specification of a physical file format required for the interchange is not included in this standard.

This part of IEC 82045 provides a comprehensive set of standardized metadata elements for document management in accordance with IEC 82045-1. To enable this, a standardized EXPRESS-based information reference model [30] is provided in Annex A. The information reference model is the basis from which the metadata elements are derived.
The information reference model also provides a standardized framework for data exchange and a basis for the implementation of a document management system. This document also provides a standardized DTD (Document Type Definition) based on the XML (eXtensible Markup Language) language for the purpose of document exchange, see Annex B. It is directed towards end users of document management systems. The Annexes are in addition directed primarily to developers of software for such systems. The document is intended as a general basic resource for document management. This part of IEC 82045 does not specify physical locations nor arrangements of labels on documents, nor layouts of drawings, documents etc. Physical implementation of the information reference model or exchange formats are not part of this standard.
NOTE Although sometimes closely related to the document management, the following items are outside of scope of this standard: planning, product data management, workflow management, configuration change management, and electronic file management. These items may, however, be referred to as external objects.

This part of IEC 61360 specifies within two dictionaries: o the definitions of data element types for electric components and materials used in electrotechnical equipment and systems; o the definitions of the component classes with associated classification scheme. These definitions are related to electric components including electronic and electromechanical components and materials used in electrotechnical equipment and systems. The object of this standard is to provide a set of uniquely-identified data element types with o an unambiguously defined meaning; o a defined value format, and o a prescribed value domain for the non-quantitative data element types. The classification scheme for components, the component class definitions (whereby the relevant and the valid characteristic properties by specific data element types are assigned to each class of components) are used to define the data element types unambiguously and to make the entire set of data element types manageable. The collection of data element types from this standard are meant for use in computerized systems for component selection and component management, parts list processing and computer-aided design, -manufacturing and -testing.

This International Standard does not specify any requirements for the encoding of colour properties, nor for their visual representation. Such requirements are under the responsibility of the different technical committees.

This part of IEC 61082 provides general rules and guidelines for the presentation of information in documents, and specific rules for diagrams, drawings and tables used in electrotechnology Excluded from this standard are rules and guidelines for all kind of audio or video presentations. Compared to the above replaced standards, the following substantial changes have been made: - the scope of EN 61082 has been gradually shifted from the rules of preparation of documents to the rules of presentation of information in documents; - the information is split in a way to establish general rules that are valid for the preparation of all document kinds, to more specific rules for specific document kinds; - terminology has been improved in a way that terms related to document kinds are clearly differentiated from those related to forms of presentations; - the publication is focusing on rules that support the legibility of a document and not on the process of developing the document; - examples in the publication are shown only to that extent necessary for the understanding of the concepts described. The use of comprehensive examples and diagrams are limited as such examples do not illustrate rules more efficiently than small sketches.

This part of IEC 61360 provides a firm basis for the clear and unambiguous definition of characteristic properties (data element types) of all elements of electrotechnical systems from basic components to sub-assemblies and full systems. Although originally conceived in the context of providing a basis for the exchange of information on electric/electronic components, the principles and methods of this standard may be used in areas outside the original conception such as assemblies of components and electrotechnical systems and subsystems. In addition, this standard provides for establishing a classification hierarchy and the allocation of applicable and relevant properties to each of the classes so established in order to describe fully the characteristics of objects belonging to that class. Use of this standard facilitates the exchange of data describing electrotechnical systems through a defined structure for the information to be exchanged in a computer-sensible form. Each property to be exchanged will have an unambiguously defined meaning and consistent naming, where relevant a defined value list, a prescribed format and defined units of measure for all quantitative values. There is also provision for:
– control of changes to definitions of the properties through version and revision numbers;
– inclusion of notes and remarks to clarify and help in the application of the definitions;
– indication of the sources of definitions and value lists;
– associated figures and formulae.
NOTE IEC TCs and SCs, or other organizations may take this part of IEC 61360 as a basis for the development of their own dictionaries.
