Scope

IEC/IEEE 62395-1:2024 specifies requirements for electrical resistance trace heating systems and includes general test requirements. This first edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes, apart from general revisions of IEC 62395-1 and harmonization with IEEE 515 [1] and IEEE 515.1 [2], with respect to the previous edition: a) Added control and monitoring requirements for fire sprinkler systems and safety showers. b) Provided a supplemental ice bath method for verification of rated output. c) Provided constructional and type test requirements for glands used to terminate heating devices to an exposed enclosure.

Purpose

To adopt, in line with IEC, the new edition of IEC/IEEE 62395-1:2024 as a European Standard.
