Scope

This part of IEC/IEEE 62582 contains methods for condition monitoring of optical fibres and cables in instrumentation and control systems using optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) measurements in the detail necessary to produce accurate and reproducible results. It includes requirements for the measurement system, conditions, and reporting of measured results.

The parts of IEC/IEEE 62582 are measurement standards, primarily for use in the management of ageing during initial qualification and after installation. IEC/IEEE 62582-1 includes requirements for the application of the other parts of IEC/IEEE 62582 and some elements which are common to all methods. Information on the role of condition monitoring for qualification of equipment important to safety is found in IEC/IEEE 60780-323. Detailed measurement methods of attenuation are provided in IEC 61280-4-1 [4] for multimode fibre optic cables and in IEC 61280-4-2 [5] for single-mode fibre optic cables.

Specific requirements on the qualification of fibre optic cables can be found in IEEE Std 1682™ [16]
