Go to http://www.iec.ch and search diligently. You will find out how to
get access to IEC60417 on line (not free!).

RE: What happened to the IEC60417 symbol library?

2001-12-17 Thread POWELL, DOUG

Hello all,

On this topic, there's a fair amount of confusion going on in this group.
Which surprises me, since for the most part, people who are involved with
regulatory issues are more careful in their reading.  My questions was not
about IEC60617 the Graphical symbol library for use on diagrams (drawings
and schematics).  Instead it was about the IEC60417 Graphical symbols for
use on equipment (labels).  The new online 60617 is not the same as the
online 60417 once was.

As for copyright, I purchased this document long ago and I make use of it.
It's just that it is cellulose-based and not electronic.  I often find it
much easier to explain myself to various drafting and design types if I can
forward a pictorial of the symbol in question.  


In my original question, I was hoping to find the online resource somewhere
else since Dr. Ikeda discontinued his.

Hello Doug,

Dr. Ikeda, the Secretary of IEC SC/3C (the committee responsible for
symbols), has decommissioned his private site.  That is the bad news.  

The good news is that IEC has placed this information on the web,
officially, but you must pay for it.  The bureaucrats are protecting their
revenue stream!

http://www.iec.ch/  and look in the upper right for: 

IEC 60617 online

Hello all,

Today it came to my attention the IEC website in Japan is down.  I checked
with InterNIC and their domain name is no longer registered.  I checked with
GOOGLE.COM and search results are:

- 
Graphical Symbols Compliant to IEC Standard 417 -
http://w3.hike.te.chiba-u.ac.jp/iec417/ver2.0/html/index.html 
a database by Ikeda Lab., Chiba University. IEC 417 has been renumbered to
IEC 60417.
-
But of course the link is dead.  Does anyone know if it moved?

RE: What happened to the IEC60417 symbol library?

2001-12-15 Thread ggarside


Surely  IEC 60417-1 and ..617 are different standards?  The former is
Graphical Symbols for use on EQUIPMENT... (my emphasis). Whereas:

IEC 60617-1GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS FOR DIAGRAMS  [about 13 parts, -1 to -13]
IEC 60617-1same title
(Still interesting, I'd missed that announcement about IEC 60617.)

By the way, if you do buy (PDF available from ANSI or IEC) IEC 60417, part
1 is now all you need to browse the thumbnail images, descriptions, etc.
Part 2 (IEC 60417-1) has the full-size images for reproduction purposes.

While I have my index open, some other possibly relevant documents:
ISO 3864  Safety Colours and Safety Signs
ISO 7000  Graphical Symbols for use on Equipment.
EN 61310-1 SAFETY OF MACHINERY - INDICATION, MARKING AND ACTUATION -
REQUIREMENTS FOR VISUAL, AUDITORY AND TACTILE SIGNALS
 [symbols for operation, prohibition, warning, mandatory, escape, fire
fighting]
EN 61310-2 [...]-REQUIREMENTS FOR MARKING
 [symbols for: Ground(earth), ac, dc, +, -, class II, III, !, dangerous
voltage]
92/58/EEC MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PROVISION OF SAFETY AND/OR HEALTH
SIGNS AT WORK
ANSI Z535.1SAFETY COLOR CODE
ANSI Z535.2 ENVIRONMENTAL AND FACILITY SAFETY SIGNS
ANSI Z535.3 CRITERIA FOR SAFETY SYMBOLS
ANSI Z535.4PRODUCT SAFETY SIGNS AND LABELS
ANSI Z535.5 ACCIDENT PREVENTION TAGS


PS: I don't have an answer to the original question. (I always assumed the
w3.hike.te.chiba-u.ac.jp site was an unofficial [and useful] resource; it
did not appear to be an official IEC site (although, a Prof. Ikeda is
listed in the IEC committee documents).) Maybe the site is just temporarily
down?

However, Google also lists other sites, such as:
http://www.geda.seul.org/symlibrary/IEC417/small.html
http://www.geda.coelacanth.com/symlibrary/IEC417/small.html   [mirror]

What symbols are included in the database?
. Conductors and connecting devices
. Basic passive components
. Semiconductors and electron tubes
. Production and conversion of electrical energy
. Switchgear, controlgear and protective devices
. Measuring instruments, lamps and signalling devices
. Telecommunications transmission, switching and peripheral equipment
. Architectural and topographical installation plans and diagrams
