| IEC 60027 |
IEC 60027 (formerly IEC 27) is the International Electrotechnical Commissions standard on Letter symbols to be used in electrical technology. (references) |
| IEC 60228 |
IEC 60228 is the International Electrotechnical Commission's international standard on conductors of insulated cables. (references) |
| IEC 60309 |
IEC 309 (now IEC 60309, 1999) is an international standard from the International Electrotechnical Commission for "plugs, socket-outlets and couplers for industrial purposes". Part 1 of the standard specifies general functional and safety requirements for any form of industrial high-current power connector. Part 2 specifies a range of mains power connectors with circular housings, and different numbers and arrangements of pins for different applications. The highest voltage allowed in the standard is 690 volts DC or AC, the highest current 250 amperes, and the highest frequency 500 hertz. The temperature range is -25 °C to +40 °C. (references) |
| IEC 60364 |
IEC 60364 is the International Electrotechnical Commission's international standard on electrical installations of buildings. (references) |
| IEC 60446 |
International standard IEC 60446 defines basic safety principles for identifying electrical conductors by colours or numerals, for example in electricity distribution wiring. (references) |
| IEC 60870-5 |
IEC 60870-5-101 provides a communication profile for sending basic telecontrol messages between two systems, which uses permanent directly connected data circuits between the systems. The IEC Technical Committee 57 (Working Group 03) have developed a protocol standard for Telecontrol, Teleprotection, and associated telecommunications for electric power systems. The result of this work is IEC 60870-5. (references) |
| IEC 60906-1 |
IEC 60901-1 is the International Electrotechnical Commission's international standard for a 230 V household plug. It was intended to become the common mains plug and socket standard, to be used one day everywhere in Europe and other regions with 230 V mains. The standard was published in 1986. So far, only Brazil has adopted it [http://web.archive.org/web/20030816012756/http://www.ul.com/about/otm/otmv9n3/brazil.html]. It looks similar to the Swiss plug, but is not identical to it.

| IEC 61107 |
IEC 61107, formerly called IEC 1107 or "FLAG" is an international standard document that describes a widely-used computer protocol used to read utility meters in the European Union. The IEC considers it to be superseded by IEC 62056, but it remains in wide use because it is simple and well-accepted. It sends ASCII data using a serial port. The physical media are either modulated light, sent with an LED and received with a photodiode, or a pair of wires, usually modulated by EIA-485. The protocol is half-duplex. (references) |
| IEC 61131-3 |
IEC 61131-3 is a standard published in December 1993 by the IEC. (references) |
| IEC 62056 |
IEC 62056, also called DLM/COSEM is an international standard for a computer protocol to read utility meters. It is designed to operate over any media, including the Internet. A meter sends ASCII data to a nearby hand-held unit using a serial port. The physical media are usually either modulated light, sent with an LED and received with a photodiode, or a pair of wires, usually modulated by EIA-485. The protocol is usually half-duplex. (references) |
| IEC 62365 |
IEC 62365 is a standard that specifies a method for packing AES3 professional digital audio streams over Asynchronous Transfer Mode networks. This is an identical method to that published by the Audio Engineering Society as AES47. (references) |
| IEC connector |
IEC connector is the common name for the type C13 plug and matching C14 socket defined by International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) specification IEC 60320. (references) |
