Ensuring electrical safety by detecting dangerous DC residual currents in electric vehicle charging infrastructure Electric vehicle (EV) charging introduces a unique electrical safety challenge: rectifier circuits in on-board chargers can generate smooth DC residual currents that standard Type A residual…
Computerised injection-based testing as a complement to traditional radiation instrument qualification Performance evaluation of radiation detection and radionuclide identification instruments traditionally requires extensive laboratory testing with certified radioactive sources, specialised facilities, and significant logistical resources. IEC 62957-1 introduces a semi-empirical…
Standardised test methodology for evaluating hygiene performance of laundry appliances Consumer demand for hygiene-enhancing laundry appliances has grown significantly, with many washing machines now offering antibacterial or sanitisation programmes. IEC PAS 62958 provides a standardised, reproducible test method for measuring…
IEC TS 62950, published in October 2017 as a Technical Specification, establishes a reference framework for specifying and evaluating the smart capabilities of household and similar electrical appliances. As smart grids, demand response programs, and home energy management systems become…
IEC 62951-1, published in April 2017, establishes a standardized bending test method for evaluating the mechanical and electrical reliability of conductive thin films deposited on flexible substrates. As flexible electronics — including foldable displays, wearable sensors, flexible solar cells, and…
IEC 62952-2, published in October 2016, defines standardized profiles for battery-based power modules used in wireless communication devices, particularly those deployed in industrial wireless sensor networks, process automation, and IoT applications. This standard works in conjunction with IEC 62952-1 (the…
Standardised communication protocol elements for real-time industrial automation networks Industrial automation systems demand deterministic, real-time communication between controllers, drives, I/O devices, and sensors. IEC PAS 62953 addresses this need by defining the complete communication stack for ADS-NET (Automation Device Specification…
IEC 62946-02, published in January 2017, is a detail specification within the IEC 62946 connector series that defines the mechanical, electrical, and transmission characteristics of 8-way unshielded high-density free and fixed connectors rated for frequencies up to 250 MHz and…
IEC 62948, published in July 2017, defines the WIA-FA (Wireless Industrial Automation — Factory Automation) wireless communication network standard tailored for industrial automation environments. Developed by the IEC Technical Committee 65, WIA-FA is a high-reliability, low-latency wireless networking protocol specifically…
IEC 62949, published in January 2017, establishes safety requirements for equipment designed to be connected to information and communication technology (ICT) networks. This standard fills a critical gap in the safety framework for networked equipment by addressing hazards that arise…
