Overview
EN 61753-058-2:2013 (CLC adoption of IEC 61753-058-2:2013) is a performance standard for single mode fibre pigtailed style optical power limiter for Category C – Controlled environment. It defines the minimum initial test and measurement requirements and severities that an in‑line type optical power limiter must meet to be classified for controlled‑environment use. The standard focuses on pigtailed, single‑mode devices and covers test sequencing, sample sizing and required measurements rather than detailed design rules.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope and purpose: Establishes baseline performance criteria so manufacturers and test labs can determine compliance for single mode fibre pigtailed style optical power limiter used in controlled environments. Applicable only to in‑line configuration power limiters.
- Performance requirements: Specifies acceptance criteria for optical limiting behavior (output limited power P_limit), stability, and wavelength independence across the specified spectral range.
- Tests and measurement procedures: References and relies on IEC/EN test methods (IEC 61300 series and IEC 60869-1) covering:
- attenuation, return loss, polarization dependent loss
- environmental stress tests: vibration, shock, cold, dry heat, damp heat, change of temperature
- high optical power exposure and static mechanical loads
- Test program structure: Defines sample size, sequencing and grouping, test reporting, dimensional checks and normative annexes for:
- sample sourcing (Annex A)
- definition and measurement of P (Annex B)
- response time definition (Annex C)
- maximum allowed input power for single‑mode limiters (Annex D)
- example dimensions and test set‑ups (Annexes E & F)
- Documentation: Requires clear test reports and conformity information for product categorization.
Practical applications and users
- Who uses this standard:
- Manufacturers of optical power limiters and fibre‑optic components
- Test laboratories and certification bodies performing initial compliance testing
- System integrators and OEMs specifying protective components for fibre systems
- Procurement and compliance engineers requiring controlled‑environment rated limiters
- Typical use cases:
- Protecting power‑sensitive receivers and instrumentation from high optical input
- Placing limiters at outputs of high‑power transmitters and amplifiers
- Deployment in telecom/datacom racks, lab environments and controlled optical subsystems where environmental conditions are stable (Category C)
Related standards
- IEC 60869-1 (generic optical power control devices)
- IEC 61300 series (basic test and measurement procedures: attenuation, return loss, vibration, shock, damp heat, high optical power, temperature change, etc.)
This standard is essential when specifying or testing single‑mode, pigtailed optical power limiters intended for controlled environments; it provides the initial test and measurement requirements needed to demonstrate reliable limiting performance and environmental robustness.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.

indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) draws attention to the fact that it is
claimed that compliance with this document may involve the use of a patent concerning
power limiters, registered as follows:
Country Patent number

European Union EP 1467239 A2
USA USP110/398'859
Japan 4587695

IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of this patent right.
The holder of this patent right has assured the IEC that he/she is willing to negotiate
licences under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants
throughout the world. In this respect, the statement of the holder of this patent right is
registered with IEC. Information may be obtained from:
KiloLambda technologies, Ltd.

Tel-Aviv 69719, Israel
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the
subject of patent rights other than those identified above. IEC shall not be held
responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO (www.iso.org/patents) and IEC (http://patents.iec.ch) maintain on-line data bases of
patents relevant to their standards. Users are encouraged to consult the data bases for
the most up to date information concerning patents.
2) The optical power limiter is a passive device that regulates the optical power in fibres,
, as a result of varying input power
producing a controlled, constant output power P
limit
higher than P , and has no influence at powers below P . Under normal operation,
limit limit
when the input power is low, the optical power limiter has no effect on the system.
However, when the input power is high, the optical output power is limited to a
predetermined level (P ).The optical limiter is wavelength independent over its entire
limit
specified spectral range. IEC 60869-1 contains the generic information of the optical
power limiter. The optical power limiter is used at the input of power-sensitive equipment
and at the output of high power devices, such as amplifiers, or wherever power regulation
is required. The optical power limiter can serve as an eye safety device. The optical power
limiter has a maximal allowed optical power P . Above this power the optical limiter
in max
can melt down and open a through path for light. Numerical values for P are given in
in max
