Principles of Electrotechnical standardization

• Formally recognized bodies
• International (cf ISO)
• Regional (for Europe) (cf CEN)
• National National Standardization Bodies and
  National Committees entrusted with national
  standardization

4
1) International Electrotechnical Commission

• Founded in 1906
• IEC is a global organization that prepares and
  publishes International Standards for all
  electrical, electronic and related technologies.
• 72 Members (end of 2008)
• They are National Committees which may include
• manufacturers, providers, distributors and
  vendors
• consumers and users
• all levels of governmental agencies
• professional societies and trade associations
• standards developers
• The Full members participate in international
  standardization activities each having equal
  voting rights

5
International Electrotechnical Commission

• The Associate Members may participate in
  international standardization activities, may
  comments on the texts and may vote as P members
  in a maximum of 4 TCs/SCs each having equal
  voting rights
• 83 Affiliate Members (end of 2008)
• They are newly-industrializing countries. They
  participe in the IEC without the financial burden
  of actual membership, making full use of IEC 100
  electronic environment. The Affiliate Country
  Programme has three principal aims
• To encourage greater awareness and use of IEC
  international standards in developing countries
• To help those countries to understand and to
  participate in the work of the IEC
• To facilitate the adoption of IEC International
  Standards as national standards.
• NOTA 1)The three official languages of the IEC
  are English, French and Russian, but the
  administrative language of the Commission is
  English.
• 2) At the end of 2008, 6 027 documents are
  published in IEC .

Technical Committees and Sub-Committees in IEC

• IN IEC THE TECHICAL WORK IS DONE IN TECHNICAL
  COMMITTEES OR IN SUB-COMMITTEES
• 94 TCs and 80 SCs are registered
• Note the hereunder important ones related to our
  activity without exclusivity

TC18 Electrical installations of ships and of mobile and fixed offshore units SC18A Electric cables for ships and mobile or fixed offshore units

2) CENELEC

• European Committee for Electrotechnical
  Standardization
• Founded in 1973 (merge of CENELCOM and CENEL )
• Its mission is to prepare voluntary
  electrotechnical standards that help to develop
  the Single European Market/European Economic Area
  for electrical and electronic goods and services,
  removing barriers to trade, creating new markets
  and cutting compliance costs.
• 30 Members (end of 2008)
• They are National Committees from the European
  Union (27) and from EFTA (3)

8
CENELEC

• 10 Affiliates Members (end of 2008)
• The ultimate goal of an affiliate is to become a
  full member once they fulfill the required
  membership conditions.
• 45 Cooperating Partners
• They represent the interest of major European
  industries. They advise on and state
  standardization priorities, propose drafts as a
  contribution to the European standardization
  process and may deliver expert advice on
  legislative consequences of new standards.
• 75 TCs and SCs are registered
• NOTA 1) The three official languages of CENELEC
  are English, French and German, but the
  administrative language of the Commission is
  English.
• 2) At the end of 2008 5 257 documents are
  published in CENELEC

NEW APPROACH

• In EUROPEAN UNION the following New Approach
  Directives concern our work in electrotechnical
  domain

2004/108/EC (EMC) ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
2006/95/EC LOW VOLTAGE
94/9/EC (ATEX) EQUIPMENT EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
The European Commission may  mandate  CENELEC
to write standards giving  Presumption of
Conformity  with the Essential Safety
Requirements of any of the New Approach
Directives (as above). Those standards are
voluntary and prepared by the stakeholders,
checked by special New Approach CONSULTANTS and
then published on the European official
Journal. At the end of 2008, 1 457 standards were
harmonized to the Directives (25,37)
10
3) DRESDEN AGREEMENT

• It is an agreement between the two organizations

In February 2009 78 of ENs/HDs identical to IEC
and 4 based on IEC standards

5) USE OF ELECTROTECHNICAL STANDARDS IN OIL GAS
SECTOR

• ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
• In the Company specifications, the OGP benchmark
  initiative shows that on an average of 57 specs
  are electrical on an total of 460 (12,4). It
  shows also that electrical is the sector with the
  2nd highest numbers of specs.
• USE OF IEC STANDARDS BY OIL AND NATURAL GAS
  INDUSTRY
• In the updated OGP catalog of International
  standards used in the Industry, we may see that
  421 IEC standards are mentionned and amongst them
  the following

TC20 Electric cables 47 TC86 Fibre optics 22
TC65 Industrial-process measurement and control 44 TC17 Switchgear and control gear 22
TC31 Electrical apparatus for explosive atmospheres 27 TC22 Power electronics 19

5-1) IEC/TC18

• Title Electrical installations of ships and
  mobile and fixed offshore units (Established in
  1927)
• Eighteen (20) Participating Members (including
  Russian federation)
• Eleven (10) Observing Members
• Scope This TC prepare standards for electrical
  installations and equipments of ships and of
  mobile and fixed offshore units including good
  practice.
• The standards concern
• Factors promoting the safety of the units
• Factors promoting safety of life.
• The standards form
• A code of practical interpretation and
  amplification of the requirements of the
  International Convention of life at sea
• A guide for future regulations by administrations
• A statement of practice for builders and others
• The standards, between purchaser and supplier
• 1. foster Interchangeability of parts
• 2. ease the procurement of following
  equipments cables for transport of
  energy, signals and data

14
IEC/TC18

• In addition to the requirements of SOLAS in
  respect of some mobile units, at the request of
  the offshore industries of many countries, work
  commenced many years ago on a system standard for
  offshore units. The work taking into
  consideration the Trends in technology and trade
  for Offshore Units is now proceeding at a fast
  pace.
• Concerning the Ecological environment,, the
  ultimate disposal of the installation on board
  the ship or offshore unit is beyond the scope of
  the committee TC18.
• However, the committees is conscious of the
  need to protect the environment and thus strive
  to ensure that the materials employed in the
  installations are ecologically friendly and cause
• the minimum of pollution possible.

15
IEC/TC18

• TC18 is developing a seven part standard

• SC18A is developing for ships a new standard
  (Guidance on the selection of cables for
  telecommunications and data transfer including
  radio-frequency cables) including fibre optic
  cables
• for offshore platformsSC18A is merging IEC
  60092-351 (Electrical installation in ships.
  Insulating materials for shipboard offshore
  units power, control, instrumentation, telecom
  data cables) and IEC 60092-359 (Electrical
  installation in ships. Sheathing materials for
  shipboard power telecommunication cables.in
  including Mud resistant material for sheathing)
• Other interesring standard worked in SC18A is
• IEC 60092-370 Electrical installation in ships
  of mobile fixed offshore units. Guidance on
  selection of cables

18
5-4) IEC/TC18/SC18A/MT

   Maintenance teams 
• MT 1 Maintenance of IEC 60092-350, -351, -352 and
  -359
• MT 2 Maintenance of IEC 60092-353, -354, -373,
  -374, -375, -376, -377 and -390
