An overview of the development process of a new IEC International Standard.
A systems approach focuses on the whole system rather than each individual part.
Standards describe the processes and methods to ensure the safety, reliability, and performance of electrical systems and information technologies. Conformity assessment verifies that the written word is applied in the real world.
