2Technical data2.1Units and symbols
For the purposes of this part of lEC 60115, the following definitions apply. In addition,units,graphical symbols, letter symbols and terminology shall, whenever possible, be taken from thefollowing publications:
– IEC 60027;
-IEC 60050;- ISO 1000.
When further items are required they shall be derived in accordance with the principles of thedocuments listed above.
2.2Definitions
For the purposes of this part of lEC 60115, the following definitions apply.
2.2.1
type
group of components having similar design features, the similarity of whose manufacturingtechniques enables them to be grouped together either for qualification approval or for qualityconformance inspection; they are generally covered by a single detail specification
NOTE 1 Components described in several detail specifications, may, in some cases, be considered as belongingto the same type and may therefore be grouped for quality assessment purposes.
NOTE 2 Mounting accessories are ignored, provided they have no significant effect on the test results.NOTE 3 Ratings cover the combination of
– electrical ratings,
-sizes,
– environmental category.
The limits of the range of ratings are to be given in the detail specification.
2.2.2
style
subdivision of a type, generally based on dimensional factors; a style may include severalvariants, generally of a mechanical order
2.2.3
grade
term indicating additional general characteristics concerning the intended application,forexample long-life applications.
The term “grade” may be used only in combination with one or more words (for example, long-life grade) and not with a single letter or number.
The figures to be added after the term “grade” should be arabic numerals
2.2.4
family (of electronic components)
group of electronic components which predominantly displays a particular physical attributeand/or fulfils a defined function
2.2.5
subfamily (of electronic components)
group of components within a family manufactured by similar technological methods
