IEC/TC 89 is a Technical Committee within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is named "Fire hazard testing" and is responsible for: To prepare international standards, technical specifications and technical reports in the areas of: Fire hazard assessment, fire safety engineering and terminology as related to electrotechnical products. Measurement of fire effluent (e.g. smoke, corrosivity, toxic gases and abnormal heat), and reviews of the state of the art of current test methods as related to electrotechnical products. Widely applicable small scale test methods for use in product standards and by manufacturers and regulators. Horizontal safety function: Guidance and test methods for assessing fire hazards of electrotechnical equipment, their parts (including components) and electrical insulating materials. Note: Terms and definitions in the field of fire tests from ISO/IEC 13943 are used wherever appropriate. This committee has published 83 standards.

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.
