This identical adoption of the Third Edition is an update to the Second Edition. The changes include simplification of Clause 2 General Concepts and Presentation with a reference directly to IEC 60050-651 – International Electrotechnical Vocabulary Part 651: Live working. As well, some definitions have been moved to specific existing clauses.

This International Standard applies to the terminology used to describe tools, devices, equipment and methods used in live working. It standardizes the name of tools, devices and equipment and permits their identification by providing definitions and illustrations.

Products listed to this standard will be found in the OTHER/ IEC directoory.
