INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – CODED GRAPHIC CHARACTER SET
FOR USE IN THE PREPARATION OF DOCUMENTS USED IN
ELECTROTECHNOLOGY AND FOR INFORMATION INTERCHANGE
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61286 has been prepared by subcommittee 3B: Documentation, of
IEC technical committee 3: Information structures, documentation and graphical symbols, in
close co-operation with subcommittee 2: Coded character sets, of ISO/IEC joint technical
committee 1: Information technology.
This second edition supersedes edition 1. It is technically identical to edition 1. It includes a
new informative annex (annex C) which was submitted as document 3B/302/CDV.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
Documents Report on voting
3B(CO)55 and 3B(CO)57 and
3B/302/CDV 3B/326/RVC
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
The committee has decided that the content of this publication will remain unchanged until
ISO/IEC 10646-1 can be considered to be sufficiently well established. At this date,
IEC 61286 will be withdrawn. For the correspondence between IEC 61286 and
ISO/IEC 10646-1, see Annex C (informative).
Annex A forms an integral part of this standard. The annexes B and C are for information
only.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – CODED GRAPHIC CHARACTER SET
FOR USE IN THE PREPARATION OF DOCUMENTS USED IN
ELECTROTECHNOLOGY AND FOR INFORMATION INTERCHANGE
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a standardized coded graphic character set for use in
drawings and diagrams, and for the design of graphical symbols.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions, which, through reference in this text,
constitute provisions of this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent
amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to
agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility
of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated
references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to apply. Members of IEC
and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.
ISO/IEC 10367:1991, Information technology – Standardized coded graphic character sets for
use in 8-bit codes
ISO 1375:1985, Data processing – Procedure for registration of escape sequences.
3 Specification of a character set
Symbols of IEC 60617, letter symbols of IEC 60027 and ISO 31 are used in characters in
texts in the preparation of documents used in electrotechnology (see IEC 61082) and for the
design of graphical symbols.
In the computer processing of electrotechnical documents, such characters should, in
accordance with the rules defined in ISO/IEC 10367, be chosen from technical character set
No. 1, with the registration number 181. Technical character set No. 1 is reproduced in
annex A.

Correspondence between Annex A and ISO/IEC 10646-1:2000
C.1 General
IEC 61286 was developed to cover the needs for graphical symbols of IEC 60617, letter
symbols of IEC 60027 and ISO 31 for use in texts appearing in documents used in
electrotechnology (see IEC 61082), and for use in labels appearing in graphical symbols.
The defined character set is primarily used in computer-aided design tools used in this area
and information exchange. At the time of publication these tools did usually not manage more
than single-octet character sets.
Since the time of publication of IEC 61286 Ed. 1 (1995), ISO/IEC 10646-1 has been
developed to cover also many of the needs in computer-aided design, and is e
