ITU-T K.51 (06/2016) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standa

7、rdization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), whi

8、ch meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within I

9、TU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendati

10、on is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “m

11、ust“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation m

12、ay involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of th

13、is Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent dat

29、 3 Definitions In this Recommendation, definitions introduced by ITU-T K.50, IEC 60950-1, IEC 62368-1 and IEC 60950-21 are used to maintain conformity. For convenience, they are reproduced here. Other definitions, currently under study in IEC, have been added. NOTE The definition of circuits in IEC

30、60950-1 is limited to circuits internal to equipment. In IEC 62368-1 the definition of circuits is limited to circuits external to equipment, which are normally considered to be a telecommunication network. For this Recommendation, the definition of circuits is extended to include network cable cond

31、uctors that carry the same voltages/currents. 3.1 Terms defined elsewhere This Recommendation uses the following terms defined elsewhere: 3.1.1 basic insulation IEC 60950-1: Insulation to provide basic protection against electric shock. NOTE IEC 62368-1 refers to “basic safeguard“ rather than “basic

32、 protection“ and notes “This concept does not apply to insulation used exclusively for functional purposes“. 3.1.2 double insulation IEC 60950-1 IEC 62368-1: Insulation comprising both basic insulation and supplementary insulation. 3.1.3 ELV circuit IEC 60950-1: Secondary circuit with voltages betwe

33、en any two conductors of the circuit, and between any one such conductor and earth (see clause 1.4.9), not exceeding 42,4 V peak, or 60 V d.c., under normal operating conditions, which is separated from hazardous voltage by basic insulation, and which neither meets all of the requirements for an SEL

34、V circuit nor meets all of the requirements for a limited current circuit. 3.1.4 external circuit IEC 62368-1: Electrical circuit that is external to the equipment and is not mains. NOTE An external circuit is classified as operating at ES1, ES2 or ES3, and PS1, PS2, or PS3 levels. 3.1.5 functional

35、insulation IEC 62368-1: Insulation between conductive parts which is necessary only for the proper functioning of the equipment. NOTE IEC 60950-1 adds the informative note “functional insulation by definition does not protect against electric shock. It may, however, reduce the likelihood of ignition

36、 and fire“. 3.1.6 hazardous voltage IEC 60950-1: Voltage exceeding 42,4 V peak, or 60 V d.c., existing in a circuit that does not meet the requirements for either a limited current circuit or a TNV circuit.
