IEC 62223: Insulators – Glossary of terms and definitions

Publication Date: Jun 1, 2009
SDO: IEC: International Electrotechnical Commission
 DOD Adopted   ANSI Approved Approved

This International Standard specifies terms defined in standards that fall under the scope of technical committee TC 36: Insulators. It covers terms that can be found in IEC 60050-471 as well as terms not appropriate for inclusion in IEC 60050-471 but used widely in the standards of IEC TC 36.

IEC 60050-471 is not intended to cover all the terms used in the various IEC standards but provides rather a general purpose vocabulary giving the basic terms and reference terms to be used by all technical committees. This glossary is intended to harmonize terms not listed in IEC 60050-471 but used in the publications of committee TC 36.
