List of IEC standards

This is an incomplete list of standards published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

The numbers of older IEC standards were converted in 1997 by adding 60000; for example IEC 27 became IEC 60027. IEC standards often have multiple sub-part documents; only the main title for the standard is listed here.

IEC 61400

IEC 61400 is an International Standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission regarding wind turbines.

Purpose and function

The 61400 is a set of design requirements made to ensure that wind turbines are appropriately engineered against damage from hazards within the planned lifetime. The standard concerns most aspects of the turbine life from site conditions before construction, to turbine components being tested, assembled and operated.

Wind turbines are capital intensive, and are usually purchased before they are being erected and commissioned.

Some of these standards provide technical conditions verifiable by an independent, third party, and as such are necessary in order to make business agreements so wind turbines can be financed and erected.

IEC started standardizing international certification on the subject in 1995, and the first standard appeared in 2001.

The common set of standards sometimes replace the various national standards, forming a basis for global certification.

IEC 62264

IEC 62264 is an international standard for enterprise-control system integration. This standard is based upon ANSI/ISA-95.

Current Parts of IEC 62264

IEC 62264 consists of the following parts detailed in separate IEC 62264 standard documents:
