Frequently Asked Questions

TC 16 is a Technical Committee within the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is named "Basic and safety principles for man-machine interface, marking and identification" and is responsible for: To prepare standards for general and safety application in the electrotechnical field concerning the man-machine interface, marking and identification in electrical installations and equipment, marking systems and general rules for: - the meanings of colours and alternative means, when used for marking identification, - the arrangement of indicating devices and actuators, - coding principles for indicating and actuating devices, - terminal designation of electrical and electronic components, apparatus and equipment, - the termination designation of certain designated conductors, - marking of electrical and electronic equipment with ratings related to supply and to its properties, - marking of bare and insulated conductors. These standards are principally intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of standards in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104: Guide to the drafting of Safety Standards, and the role of committees with Safety Pilot Functions and Safety Group Functions, and in ISO/IEC Guide 51: Guidelines for the inclusion of safety aspects in standards. HORIZONTAL SAFETY FUNCTION: Identification system, relevant to safety (for example, of persons, property, environment) in order to avoid ambiguity and to ensure safe operation, for general use and covering the following: - marking of terminals of electrical equipment, - identification of insulated and bare conductors, for example by marking, colours or numerals, - significance of colours and supplementary means for the coding of indicating devices and actuators, - actuating principles for man-machine interface, - minimum requirements for the marking of electrical equipment with ratings related to electricity supply. This committee has published 0 standards.

TC 16 develops IEC standards in the area of Information technology.

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is the world's leading organization for the preparation and publication of international standards for electrical, electronic, and related technologies. Founded in 1906, the IEC provides a global platform for companies, industries, and governments to meet, discuss, and develop the international standards they require.

A Technical Committee (TC) in IEC is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
