IEC 62264-2:2026 specifies interface content exchanged between manufacturing control functions and other enterprise functions as interrelated information models. The information models are represented as an interrelated collection of conceptual object models which can be used for the implementation of applications with logical data and physical data models. The data exchanges in interfaces are scoped as between Level 3 manufacturing operations and Level 4 business systems in the hierarchical model defined in IEC 62264-1. The purpose of this document is to reduce the risk, cost, and errors associated with interface implementation. Since this document covers many manufacturing operations and enterprise domains and there are many different standards for those domains, the semantics of this data exchange standard are described at a conceptual level intended to enable the other standards to be mapped to these semantics. To this end, this document defines a set of elements contained in the generic interface, together with a mechanism for extending the interface content for implementations. The scope is limited to the definition of object models and attributes of the exchanged information defined in the IEC 62264-1. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2013. It is published as a double logo standard. This edition constitutes a technical revision. Due to the extent of the changes and updates, this document cannot ensure backward compatibility to implementations based on older editions. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition and ANSI/ISA 95.00.02-2018 (ED3): a) object models are added for the use of interactive communications to notify subscribers about the occurrence of events and to provide context information about the event, making the information exchange more efficient and consistent. The added object models were the operations event model and operations record model. b) operations location model and spatial definition attribute added to allow the description of operation locations. c) operations test model added to define how test specifications and test results are related to testable objects, operations test requirements, actual resource, and work definitions. d) definition of possible measurement uncertainty sub-attributes for all value, quantity and duration attributes defined in this document. e) updated hierarchy scope model. f) removed as separate models in this edition were the models for product definition, production schedule, production performance, and production capability. Their content is covered for all manufacturing operations management categories under operations models. g) object model was added for the operations segment capability as a collection of resources related to other operations models. h) updated relationship name and role name conventions established in 3.3.4 and implemented across all models and associated tables. i) updated all objects’ relationship role table with explicit source and target names. j) updated common header attributes for objects and property objects established in 4.5 and implemented across all models and associated tables. k) updated explanation of the ‘relationships between resource reference objects in operations management information models and resource models.

IEC 62541-100:2025 defines the information model associated with Devices. This document describes three models which build upon each other as follows:
• The (base) Device Model is intended to provide a unified view of devices and their hardware and software parts irrespective of the underlying device protocols.
• The Device Communication Model adds Network and Connection information elements so that communication topologies can be created.
• The Device Integration Host Model finally adds additional elements and rules required for host systems to manage integration for a complete system. It enables reflecting the topology of the automation system with the devices as well as the connecting communication networks.
This document also defines AddIns that can be used for the models in this document but also for models in other information models. They are:
• Locking model – a generic AddIn to control concurrent access,
• Software update model – an AddIn to manage software in a Device.

This part of IEC 62541 defines the OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) Services. The Services defined are the collection of abstract Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) that are implemented by OPC UA Servers and called by OPC UA Clients. All interactions between OPC UA Clients and Servers occur via these Services. The defined Services are considered abstract because no particular RPC mechanism for implementation is defined in this document. IEC 62541-6 specifies one or more concrete mappings supported for implementation. For example, one mapping in IEC 62541-6 is to UA-TCP UA-SC UA-Binary. In that case the Services described in this document appear as OPC UA Binary encoded payload, secured with OPC UA Secure Conversation and transported via OPC UA TCP.
Not all OPC UA Servers implement all of the defined Services. IEC 62541-7 defines the Profiles that dictate which Services must be implemented in order to be compliant with a particular Profile.
A BNF (Backus-Naur form) for browse path names is described in Annex A.

IEC 62541-17:2025 provides a definition of AliasNames functionality. AliasNames provide a manner of configuring and exposing an alternate well-defined name for any Node in the system. This is analogous to the way domain names are used as an alias to IP addresses in IP networks. Like a DNS Server, an OPC UA Server that supports AliasNames provides a lookup Method that will translate an AliasName to a NodeId of the related Node on a Server. An aggregating Server can collect these AliasNames from multiple Servers and provide a lookup Method to allow Client applications to discover NodeIds on a system wide basis. An aggregating Server could also define AliasNames for Nodes in other Servers that do not support AliasNames. A GDS can be constructed that would automatically aggregate all AliasNames that are defined on any Server that has registered with the GDS. In this case, the GDS also provides the lookup mechanism for Clients at a well-known endpoint and address.

This document defines the syntax and semantics of a file format for the 3D visualization and interrogation of lightweight geometry and product manufacturing information derived from CAD systems, using visualization software tools that do not need the full capability of a CAD system. This document has been adopted as a 3D visualization capability in addition to the ISO 10303 series. The ISO 10303 series are the ISO standards adopted for the engineering data exchange, sharing and long-term archiving of product definition information throughout the product lifecycle. In this document 3D visualization is defined as the visual presentation on a screen or another media of graphical and textual 3-dimensional representations of a set of data representing an object, information or results of a computational process in order to enable decision process by a human looking at the data visualized in a medium. The ISO 14306 file format specification for 3D visualization includes data descriptions that can represent the following data: facet information (triangles), stored with geometry compression techniques; visual attributes such as lights, textures and materials; product manufacturing information (PMI); boundary representation (b-rep) solid model shape representation and associated metadata; configuration representations; and delivery methods such as asynchronous streaming of content. The file format specification for 3D visualization does not specify the implementation of, or definition of a run-time architecture for viewing and/or processing ISO 14306 data.

IEC 62351-7:2025 defines network and system management (NSM) data object models that are specific to power system operations. These NSM data objects will be used to monitor the health of networks and systems, to detect possible security intrusions, and to manage the performance and reliability of the information infrastructure. The goal is to define a set of abstract objects that will allow the remote monitoring of the health and condition of IEDs (Intelligent Electronic Devices), RTUs (Remote Terminal Units), DERs (Distributed Energy Resources) systems and other systems that are important to power system operations.
Power systems operations are increasingly reliant on information infrastructures, including communication networks, IEDs, and self-defining communication protocols. Therefore, management of the information infrastructure has become crucial to providing the necessary high levels of security and reliability in power system operations.
The telecommunication infrastructure that is in use for the transport of telecontrol and automation protocols is already subject to health and condition monitoring control, using the concepts developed in the IETF Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) standards for network management. However, power system specific devices (like teleprotection, telecontrol, substation automation, synchrophasors, inverters and protections) need instead a specific solution for monitoring their health.
The NSM objects provide monitoring data for IEC protocols used for power systems (IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-104) and device specific environmental and security status. As a derivative of IEC 60870-5-104, IEEE 1815 DNP3 is also included in the list of monitored protocols. The NSM data objects use the naming conventions developed for IEC 61850, expanded to address NSM issues. For the sake of generality these data objects, and the data types of which they are comprised, are defined as abstract models of data objects.
In addition to the abstract model, in order to allow the integration of the monitoring of power system devices within the NSM environment in this part of IEC 62351, a mapping of objects to the SNMP protocol of Management Information Base (MIBs) is provided.
The objects that are already covered by existing MIBs are not defined here but are expected to be compliant with existing MIB standards. For example protocols including EST, SCEP, RADIUS, LDAP, GDOI are not in scope.

IEC 61987-41: 2025 provides:
• a characterization for the integration of process analysers in the Common Data Dictionary (CDD),
• generic structures for operating lists of properties (OLOP) and device lists of properties (DLOP) of measuring equipment in conformance with IEC 61987-10,
• generic structures for Dynamic Data, e.g. for condition monitoring of process analysers.
The generic structures for the OLOP and DLOP contain the most important blocks for process analysers. Blocks pertaining to a specific equipment type will be described in the corresponding part of the IEC 61987 standard series. Similarly, equipment properties are not part of this document. Thus, OLOP, DLOPs and LOPDs for selected process analysers families will be found in the IEC CDD.

This document specifies interface requirements between charging infrastructure with dedicated contact line sections and electric traction units with onboard electric traction energy storages and current collectors.
The dedicated contact line section can be
- separated from other contact line systems of electrified railway lines and fed separately, or
- connected electrically and/or mechanically with contact line systems of electrified railway lines.
The charging infrastructure can be used for charging the traction units with onboard electric traction energy storages at a standstill and/or when moving.
This document covers the following aspects:
- supply voltages and frequencies,
- compatibility (e.g. avoidance of (unacceptable) unbalances) with the feeding grid (national 3 AC grid),
- interaction between the vehicle traction/charging system and the electric traction charging power supply system,
- transmitting required information towards driver and/or electric traction unit,
- contact line system,
- maximum load current,
- contact line protection principles,
- electrical safety,
- stray current protection (in case of DC electric traction power supply systems),
- protection against influence on signalling systems, and
- energy measurement and settlement.
This document applies to new charging infrastructure and/or new electric traction units with onboard electric traction energy storage.
Although this document is primarily applicable to railways it can also be partially applied to guided mass transport systems such as:
1) tramways, and
2) elevated and underground railways.
This document does not apply to charging with a plug or connector solution or inverted current collectors mounted on the infrastructure side.
This document does not apply to electric road systems with overhead contact line systems.

IEC 62014-4:2025 describes an eXtensible Markup Language (XML) schema for meta-data documenting intellectual property (IP) used in the development, implementation, and verification of electronic systems. This schema provides both a standard method to document IP that is compatible with automated integration techniques and a standard method (generators) for linking tools into a system development framework, enabling a more flexible, optimized development environment. Tools compliant with this standard will be able to interpret, configure, integrate, and manipulate IP blocks that comply with the IP meta-data description. The standard is independent of any specific design processes. It does not cover behavioral characteristics of the IP that are not relevant to integration. This standard enables the creation and exchange of IP in a highly automated design environment.
This standard is published as a double logo IEC-IEEE standard.

IEC 62541-15:2025 describes a safety communication layer (services and a protocol) for the exchange of SafetyData using IEC 62541 mechanisms. It identifies the principles for functional safety communications defined in IEC 61784‑3 that are relevant for this safety communication layer. This safety communication layer is intended for implementation in safety devices only.
NOTE 1 This document targets controller-to-controller communication. However, easy expandability to other use-cases (e.g. OPC UA field level communication) has already been considered in the design of this document.
NOTE 2 This document does not cover electrical safety and intrinsic safety aspects. Electrical safety relates to hazards such as electrical shock. Intrinsic safety relates to hazards associated with potentially explosive atmospheres.
This document defines mechanisms for the transmission of safety-relevant messages among participants within a network using OPC UA technology in accordance with the requirements of the IEC 61508 series and IEC 61784-3 for functional safety. These mechanisms can be used in various industrial applications such as process control, manufacturing, automation, and machinery.
This document provides guidelines for both developers and assessors of compliant devices and systems.
NOTE 3 The resulting SIL claim of a system depends on the implementation of this document within the system – implementation of this document in a standard device is not sufficient to qualify it as a safety device.
