Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www​.iso​.org/​directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

4 Classification by surface appearance

4.1 Appearance classes


Assessment of characteristics and defects for determination of appearance class shall be carried out in
accordance with ISO 2426-1. Surface classification shall be based on the permissible characteristics and
defects within each of the appearance classes as specified in 4.2.

4.2 Permissible characteristics and defects

4.2.1 General

Each surface shall be individually assigned to one of the appearance classes E, I, II, III or IV, as defined
by the permissible characteristics according to Table 1 and permissible defects according to Table 2.

1) Conventionally, broadleaved species.
