GENERIC SPECIFICATION OF INFORMATION
ON PRODUCTS BY PROPERTIES –

Part 1: Principles and methods

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62569-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 3:
Information structures and elements, identification and marking principles, documentation and
graphical symbols.
This first edition cancels and replaces IEC PAS 62569-1:2009. This edition constitutes a
technical revision.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:

INTRODUCTION
This document establishes general principles and methods required for all parts of IEC 62569,
to manage the product-related information as described in the following parts along the life
cycle of an object, e.g. a product during its operational use.
IEC 62569-2 provides a generally applicable structure of a generic specification of information
on products presenting those common clauses which are independent of any specific
equipment, component and device. It serves as a guide for the preparation of technical
specifications for various objects. Due to its generic type, particular issues referring to
specific product groups are excluded. These need to be obtained from the specific product
descriptions within product standards.
IEC 62569-3 provides a collection of generally applicable object properties used in
conjunction with the predefined structure in IEC 62569-2, being the basis for, for example, an
XML-based electronic template, serving as generic template for the development of product-
specific specifications of information by product committees within IEC and ISO, industrial
consortia or other industrial organizations.
Figure 1 provides an overview of the intention of this standard. The generic specification for
information of objects represents an overall approach for those mainly technical information
issues which are generally required by users of an object, and being independent of any
specific product class, such as identification, classification or accessibility information for
logical or physical interconnection to other products. It provides sets of object properties
which may contain quantitative, non-quantitative or conditional types, containing predefined
value sets for the non-quantitative, or units for the quantitative types.
The next step is the application of the available generic information on a specific product
class such as motor, transformer or resistor. In this step the previously available generic
information is aggregated by additional information focusing on that information which is
typically applicable for the considered specific class. The result is applicable only for that
considered class, and named product-class-specific blank detail specification. For each
further class, such a step is repeated. The object properties contained in a blank detail
specification for a specific product class are either of the quantitative or non-quantitative type
and also foreseen with predefined value sets for the non-quantitative, or units for the
quantitative types.
These blank detail specifications should be made available (e.g. as a web-based collection),
allowing users to establish the detail specifications (instantiate or populate with data) for
automated and controlled use by industry in the business process.
The next step is the application of blank detail specifications in daily practice in industry,
when a user populates the object properties of the blank detail specification with required
values for his specific application. Depending on the needs, further object properties may be
added, marked as not applicable or complemented by qualifiers, etc.
The result may be used, for example, as a functional specification for a specific object within
a system or plant, or used for an inquiry.
From this perspective it is easy to deduce that a prerequisite for an economic implementation
of the above specifications is the existence of an internationally available data dictionary with
public access, providing internationally standardized collections of (dictionary) properties
following common methods as defined in the IEC 61360 series.
Referring from object descriptions to previously defined standardized semantic (dictionary)
property descriptions is the key issue of an effective, reliable and secure electronic business.
For the relations among (dictionary) properties, the associated data dictionary and the
different specifications, see Figure 1.

IEC 62569-1:2017 © IEC 2017 – 7 –
Within this document two main concepts are differentiated:
A. a specification concept for “real or abstract” objects;
B. a data dictionary containing predefined information elements, each described by a
rigorous set of attributes and unambiguously identified, so that its information elements
can be used as a reference when preparing the concept A. Such a data dictionary is an
optional tool to make the descriptions for concept A. It is of course a “real world” object
but a quite different one and separated from the “real world” intended to be described.
For concept A, the term object property and set of object properties will be applied. For issues
relating to concept B, the term (dictionary) property and set of (dictionary) properties will be
applied to indicate that here a property or set of properties residing in a data dictionary is
meant.
The purpose of this document is to describe how real world specifications or descriptions are
to be prepared by making use of the data dictionary defined in IEC 61360.
The IEC 62569 series is a companion standard providing methods of expanding the use of
existing standardized (dictionary) properties as provided in the IEC CDD (Common Data
Dictionary) along the life cycle periods without the need to define additional (dictionary)
properties or to redefine such supporting economic engineering and data management.
NOTE 1 As the referred data dictionary of IEC 61360 is quite different from a dictionary, the term "data dictionary"
is consistently used within this document.
NOTE 2 Such a data dictionary is available as a data base application to be found under
http://std.iec.ch/iec61360 [retrieved 2016-05-03].
