Standards

This standard specifies requirements and dimensions for PVC insulated cables for operation at nominal voltages up to and including 1900 V to armour or earth and 3300 V between conductors.

This standard covers thermoplastic and rubber tapes for use as electrical insulation at not more than 600 V and at 80 C (176 F) and lower temperatures on joints and splices in wires and cables in accordance with the National Electrical Code.. It is intended that rubber tape on a joint or splice be mechanically protected by a covering such as friction tape . Thermoplastic tape is acceptable without the additional mechanical protection.

BESP 100, Issue 1, November 1, 1996. This procedure describes the process for obtaining a Technical Acceptance Certificate (TAC) for Broadcasting Equipment.

These requirements cover ballasts of the resistance, reactance, and electronic (solid state) types for use with fluorescent lamps involving a potential of 2500 volts or less in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NEPA 70. A fluorescent lamp ballast may be determined by investigation to be acceptable for use, in a fixture or other device, with electric-discharge lamps of other than the fluorescent type. A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those in use when the standard was developed, and that involves a risk of fire, electric shocks, or injury to persons shall be evaluated using the appropriate additional component and end-product requirements as determined necessary to maintain the level of safety for the user of the product as originally; anticipated by the intent of this standard.

These requirements cover portable, stationary, and fixed uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) rated 600 volts or less ac or dc that are intended for installation in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70.  During intended operation, the UPS allows the utility to deliver ac and dc power to the connected load through either the power conversion portion of the UPS or a bypass source. The power conversion portion of the UPS consists of a rectifier and an inverter.  During periods of power fluctuations, or power outage, or both, the connected load receives ac and dc power from the battery supply and power conversion portion of the UPS.

This regional standard specifies requirements for a management system where a micros small and medium-sized enterprise needs to demonstrate its ability to consistently meet applicable requirements for quality, environmental and occupational safety and health; and aims to enhance its performance, through the process of continual improvement, assurance of conformity to applicable quality, environmental and occupational safety and health requirements, and the prevention of non-conformity by the application of this system.

These requirements cover temporary-use, seasonal decorative-lighting products and accessories with a maximum input voltage rating of 120 V to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Temporary-use is considered to be a period of installation and use not exceeding 90 days. 1.2 These requirements cover factory-assembled seasonal lighting strings with push-in, midget-screw, or miniature-screw lampholders connected in series for across-the-line use or with candelabra- or intermediate-screw lampholders connected in parallel for direct-connection use. These requirements also cover factory-assembled seasonal decorative outfits such as wreaths, stars, light sculptures, crosses, candles or candle sets without lamp shades, products in the shape of, or in resemblance to, Christmas trees with simulated branches and needles, products in the shape of, or in resemblance to, wreaths provided with simulated branches and needles, blow-molded figures or objects, animated figures, tree tops, controllers, tree stands, electric tree poles, and motorized decorative displays. These requirements cover products which are portable and not permanently connected to a power source.

This International Standard describes the fundamental concepts and principles of quality management which are universally applicable to the following: — organizations seeking sustained success through the implementation of a quality management system; — customers seeking confidence in an organization’s ability to consistently provide products and services conforming to their requirements; — organizations seeking confidence in their supply chain that product and service requirements will be met; — organizations and interested parties seeking to improve communication through a common understanding of the vocabulary used in quality management; — organizations performing conformity assessments against the requirements of ISO 9001; — providers of training, assessment or advice in quality management; — developers of related standards. This International Standard specifies the terms and definitions that apply to all quality management and quality management system standards developed by ISO/TC 176.
