This part of IEC 60268 applies to transducers converting an electrical input signal into a
mechanical or acoustical output signal. However, if the electrical input terminals and the surface
of the radiator are accessible, this document can also apply to passive and active sound
systems such as loudspeakers, headphones, TV-sets, multi-media devices, personal portable
audio devices, automotive sound systems and professional equipment. This document
describes only electrical and mechanical measurements that help assess the transfer behaviour
of the device under test (DUT). This includes operating the DUT in both the small- and largesignal
domains. The influence of the target application's acoustical boundary conditions (e.g.
car interior) can also be considered in the physical evaluation of the sound system. Perception
and cognitive evaluations of the reproduced sound and the impact of perceived sound quality
are outside the scope of this document.
NOTE This document does not apply to microphones and other sensors. Implementation of this document does not
require access to the sound pressures generated in the near or far fields of the radiator. Directivity and other
characteristics describing the electro-acoustical transfer properties are described in IEC 60268-21, which covers
acoustical measurements.The practical application of the measurements for research and development (R&D), endof-
line testing (QC) and evaluation in the final target application (TA) is discussed in Annex A.

This European Standard specifies the performance requirements for sound systems which are
primarily intended to broadcast information for the protection of lives within one or more specified
areas in an emergency. It also gives the characteristics and the methods of test necessary for the
specification of the system.
This European Standard applies to sound reinforcement and distribution systems to be used to effect
a rapid and orderly mobilization of occupants in an indoor or outdoor area in an emergency, including
systems using loudspeakers to broadcast voice announcements for emergency purposes and
attention-drawing or alarm tone signals.
This European Standard does not apply to emergency sound systems used for evacuation in case of
fire emergency, whether connected to a fire detection and fire alarm system or not.
NOTE 1 The use of the system for normal sound reinforcement and distribution systems purposes under nonhazardous
circumstances is not excluded.
It is recommended that the system, when used for emergency purposes, should form part of a
complete facility (equipment, operating procedures and training programmes) for the control of
emergencies.
NOTE 2 Sound systems for emergency purposes may be the subject of approval by relevant authorities.

This part of IEC 60958 specifies the physical and electrical parameters for different media.
This part together with IEC 60958-1, IEC 60958-4-1, and IEC 60958-4-2 specify an interface
for the serial digital transmission of two channels of periodically sampled and linearly
represented digital audio data from one transmitter to one receiver.
The transport format defined in IEC 60958-1 is intended for use with shielded twisted-pair
cable of conventional design over distances of up to 100 m without transmission equalization
or any special equalization at the receiver and at frame rates of up to 50 kHz. Longer cable
lengths and higher frame rates may be used, but with a rapidly increasing requirement for
care in cable selection and possible receiver equalization or the use of active repeaters, or
both. Provision is made in this standard for adapting the balanced terminals to use 75 Ω
coaxial cable, and transmission by fibre-optic cable is under consideration. This standard
does not cover connection to any common carrier equipment. In this interface specification,
an interface for consumer use is also mentioned. The two interfaces are not identical.

This part of IEC 60958 specifies the format for coding audio used for the audio content.
Together with IEC 60958-1, IEC 60958-4-2, and IEC 60958-4-4, it specifies an interface for
serial digital transmission of two channels of periodically sampled and linearly represented
digital audio data from one transmitter to one receiver.
It is expected that the audio data will have been sampled at any of the sampling frequencies
recognized by AES5. The capability of the interface to indicate other sample rates does not
imply that it is recommended that equipment support these rates. To eliminate doubt,
equipment specifications should define supported sampling frequencies.

IEC 62548:2016 sets out design requirements for photovoltaic (PV) arrays including DC array wiring, electrical protection devices, switching and earthing provisions. The scope includes all parts of the PV array up to but not including energy storage devices, power conversion equipment or loads. An exception is that provisions relating to power conversion equipment are covered only where DC safety issues are involved. The interconnection of small DC conditioning units intended for connection to PV modules are also included. The object of this document is to address the design safety requirements arising from the particular characteristics of photovoltaic systems. Direct current systems, and PV arrays in particular, pose some hazards in addition to those derived from conventional AC power systems, including the ability to produce and sustain electrical arcs with currents that are not greater than normal operating currents.
