ICS 47 is a classification code in the International Classification for Standards (ICS) system. It covers "SHIPBUILDING AND MARINE STRUCTURES". The ICS is a hierarchical classification system used to organize international, regional, and national standards, facilitating the search and identification of standards across different fields.
There are 3106 standards classified under ICS 47 (SHIPBUILDING AND MARINE STRUCTURES). These standards are published by international and regional standardization bodies including ISO, IEC, CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI.
The International Classification for Standards (ICS) is a hierarchical classification system maintained by ISO to organize standards and related documents. It uses a three-level structure with field (2 digits), group (3 digits), and sub-group (2 digits) codes. The ICS helps users find standards by subject area and enables statistical analysis of standards development activities.

The present document contains the common requirements for marine radio communications and radio determination equipment and associated ancillary equipment operating from any combination of internal batteries, DC and single phase AC, in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC). The provisions of the present document apply to marine radio equipment not covered in the scope of the Council Directive on marine equipment (the "Marine Equipment Directive" 2014/90/EU [i.4]). Product dependent arrangements necessary to perform the EMC tests on dedicated types of marine radio communications and radio determination equipment, and the assessment of test results, are detailed in the appropriate product related parts of the present document. The present document, together with the product related part, specifies the applicable EMC tests, the methods of measurement, the limits and the performance criteria for marine radio equipment and associated ancillary equipment. In case of differences (for instance concerning special conditions, definitions, abbreviation) between the present document and the relevant product related part of the present document, the product related part takes precedence. For the further content of the present document, the expression "radio equipment" is taken to mean marine radio communications or radio determination equipment, in each individual case. Technical specifications related to the antenna port of radio equipment and emissions from the enclosure port of radio equipment and combinations of radio and associated ancillary equipment are not included in the present document. Such technical specifications are normally found in the relevant product standards for the effective use of the radio spectrum. The environment classification used in the present document is maritime, as defined in EN IEC 60945 [i.3]. Marine radio communications equipment meeting the EMC requirements set out in EN IEC 61000-6-3 [i.1] and EN 61000-6-1 [i.2] is deemed to meet also the EMC requirements for the maritime environment described in EN IEC 60945 [i.3]. The EMC requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility for apparatus intended to be used in the maritime environment. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with low probability of occurrence.

This document specifies a methodology to calculate the environmental impact of operational energy use for large yachts and enables the comparative assessment of a yacht's environmental performance against a defined baseline fleet. The method established herein is robust and based on the best available data, with transparency and comparability across various yacht types and technical characteristics. This document explicitly addresses operational energy consumption during the yacht's use phase, emphasizing the efficiency of onboard systems benchmarked against the found average operational profile and the environmental emissions coming from this energy, both upstream and downstream. It excludes behavioural variables arising from individual yacht operation patterns. Additionally, the production and maintenance materials and processes (upstream impacts), as well as yacht end-of-life considerations (part of downstream impacts), are outside the scope of this document. The operational profile specified in this document assumes that the yacht is professionally crewed year-round and capable of independent transoceanic voyages. NOTE For motor yachts, this operational assumption generally aligns with IMO MARPOL requirements, which apply to ships exceeding 400 GT that must be surveyed and certified for MARPOL compliance. Sailing yachts typically exhibit lower GT for equivalent length; however, their cruising behaviours align closely with motor yachts of comparable length.

The evaluation of stability and buoyancy properties using this document will enable the boat to be assigned to a design category (C or D) appropriate to its design and maximum load.
This document is applicable to boats of hull length less than 6 m, whether propelled by human or mechanical power, except habitable sailing multihulls. Boats of hull length less than 6 m which are fitted with a full deck and quick-draining cockpit(s) complying with ISO 11812 can alternatively be assessed using ISO 12217‑1 or ISO 12217‑2 (for non-sailing and sailing boats, respectively), in which case higher design categories can be assigned.
In relation to habitable multihulls, this document includes assessment of susceptibility to inversion, definition of viable means of escape and requirements for inverted flotation.
This document excludes:
— inflatable and rigid-inflatable boats covered by the ISO 6185 series, except for references made in the ISO 6185 series to specific clauses of the ISO 12217 series;
— personal watercraft covered by ISO 13590 and other similar powered craft;
— aquatic toys;
— canoes and kayaks;
— gondolas and pedalos;
— sailing surfboards;
— surfboards, including powered surfboards;
— hydrofoils, foil stabilized boats and hovercraft when not operating in the displacement mode; and
— submersibles.
NOTE Displacement mode means that the boat is only supported by hydrostatic forces.
It does not include or evaluate the effects on stability of towing, fishing, dredging or lifting operations, which need to be separately considered if appropriate.

IEC 60092-352:2025 provides the basic requirements for the selection, installation and operating conditions of electrical cables intended for fixed electrical systems on board ships at voltages (U) up to and including Um 18/30 (36) kV, symmetrical category cables and fibre optic cables.
The reference to fixed systems includes those that are subjected to vibration (due to the movement of the ship) or movement (due to motion of the ship) and not to those that are intended for frequent flexing.
Cables subject to frequent or continual flexing use, which can withstand the mechanical stress and the environment they are exposed to, are detailed in other IEC specifications such as IEC 60227 and IEC 60245. Flexible cables are frequently used for retractable thrusters, elevators, moving decks, cranes, shore connections and other moving applications on board ships.

IEC 60092-302-2:2025 defines the specific requirements of low voltage marine power switchgear and controlgear assemblies (mpsc-assemblies) as follows:
- stationary assemblies with enclosure for which the rated voltage does not exceed 1 000 V AC or 1500 V DC;
- assemblies intended for use in conjunction with the power generation, distribution and conversion of electric energy, and for the control of electric energy consuming equipment.
Due to the marine application and the risks associated with loss of power, additional safety factors have been applied to minimise the risk of failure, such as applying an additional safety factor on clearance distances.
This document applies to all assemblies whether they are designed, manufactured and verified on a one-off basis or fully standardised and manufactured in quantity.
Either the manufacture or assembly, or both, of the MPSC assembly can be carried out by others than the original manufacturer.
This document does not apply to individual devices and self-contained components, such as motor starters, fuse switches, electronic equipment, which comply with the relevant product standards.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2019. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) amended and updated in line with, and correctly referenced to the updated clauses of IEC 61439-1:2020 and IEC 61439-2:2020;
b) explanation of the need to special consideration for marine applications added;
