IEC Standards
Use the search BOX to find the right IEC standard.
IEC Standards are technical standards developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). These standards focus on electrical, electronic, and related technologies, ensuring safety, compatibility, and performance across global markets.
What Are IEC Standards?
IEC standards set requirements and best practices for:
-
Power generation, transmission, and distribution (e.g., grid systems)
-
Electronic components and systems (e.g., semiconductors, batteries)
-
Consumer electronics (e.g., TVs, smartphones)
-
Industrial automation (e.g., control systems, robotics)
-
Renewable energy (e.g., solar, wind)
- Safety and performance in electrical equipment
Popular IEC Standards:
Standard Description
IEC 61000 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards
IEC 60364 Low-voltage electrical installations
IEC 61508 Functional safety of electrical/electronic systems
IEC 60601 Safety and performance of medical electrical equipment
IEC 61400 Wind turbine systems – design and safety standards
IEC 61850 Communication networks and systems for power utility automation
Why IEC Standards Matter:
-
Ensure safety of electrical and electronic devices
-
Promote international trade by standardizing product specs
-
Reduce risk of electrical failures and hazards
-
Support sustainability in energy and automation systems
-
Encourage innovation by providing clear design and testing criteria
