Committee EL-06, Industrial switchgear and controlgear, held a joint meeting with all its Subcommittees recently to finalise its work program for the forthcoming year. The Committee reconfirmed its approach to adopt IEC Standards and other technical publications identically wherever possible. The meeting approved projects for the production of three new Standards and the revision of six existing Standards in the AS/NZS 3947 Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear series as well development of a new Standard specifying requirements for empty enclosures intended to house low-voltage switchgear and controlgear. The Committee also approved a Technical Specification to provide important background information to the principles to be applied in the development of device profiles for the interfacing of low-voltage switchgear and controlgear products covered by the AS/NZS 3947 series using the Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear controller-device interface technologies specified in the five parts of the AS/NZS 62026 series. These projects comprise identical adoptions of the latest documents in IEC and will bring all Standards in the industrial switchgear and controlgear sector into line with the most recent International Standard.
