Standards Overview
Power-One refer data to international standards for assuring world-wide common understanding. IEC and CISPR standards will therefore be applied in the first instance. For practical reasons other standards will be used for proper product specification, whereby EN (European Standards), UL and MIL standards are applied. Important note: The IEC publication numbers have changed as of 1997. All new IEC publications and parts, as well as editions and revisions will be issued with a designation in the 60000 series. It is necessary to add 60000 to the existing base number. Renumbering has taken place, but publications printed before 1997 still carry the old series of numbers. However the new numbers will appear in all bibliographic references. Therefore we have amended all IEC references to the new system in the Power-One Data Book 98.
