IEC/TC 66 - Safety of measuring, control and laboratory equipment
To prepare safety standards for test and measurement equipment, industrial-process control equipment, and laboratory equipment wherever they are used. Such equipment includes: a) equipment and systems to measure, test, generate, and analyse, simple and complex electromagnetic quantities and equipment that by electromagnetic means measure physical quantities. Note: Aspects of this equipment other than safety are covered by other technical committees. b) equipment and systems for industrial-process measurement and control. Note: Aspects of this equipment other than safety are covered by TC 65 except that SC 65A has a Horizontal Safety Function relating to the functional safety of electrical/electronic/ programmable electronic systems and SC 65B is responsible for the functional safety of programmable controllers. c) laboratory equipment for analysis, handling and preparation of materials. Note: This equipment includes measuring instruments, systems and their accessories, for preparation, treatment and analysis of materials in the fields of research, medicine, industry and education, and for environmental monitoring. TC 66 has a Group Safety Function in accordance with IEC Guide 104 for the equipment in categories a) to c) above.
Sécurité des appareils de mesure, de commande et de laboratoire
Elaborer les normes de sécurité pour les équipements d'essai et de mesure, les équipements de contrôle des procédés industriels et les équipements de laboratoire quel que soit l'endroit où ils sont utilisés. De tels équipements comprennent: a) les matériels et systèmes pour mesurer, tester, générer, et analyser des grandeurs électromagnétiques simples et complexes et des équipements qui, par des moyens électromagnétiques, mesurent des grandeurs physiques ; Note : Les aspects de ces équipements autres que la sécurité sont couverts par d'autres comités techniques. b) les matériels et systèmes pour la mesure et le contrôle des procédés industriels ; Note : Les aspects de ces équipements autres que la sécurité sont couverts par le TC 65 sauf que le SC 65A a une Fonction Horizontale de Sécurité vis-à-vis de la sécurité fonctionnelle des systèmes électriques / électroniques / électroniques programmables et que le SC 65B est responsable de la sécurité fonctionnelle des contrôleurs programmable. c) les matériels de laboratoire pour l'analyse, la manutention et la préparation de matériaux. Note : Ces équipements comprennent des instruments de mesure, des systèmes et leurs accessoires, pour la préparation, le traitement et l'analyse de matériaux dans les domaines de la recherche, de la médecine, de l'industrie et de l'éducation, ainsi que pour la surveillance de l'environnement. Le TC 66 a une fonction de groupe de sécurité conformément au Guide 104 de l'IEC pour les équipements des catégories a) à c) ci-dessus.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Technical Committee (TC) in ISO 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.
