IEC 61346

The standard EN 81346 Industrial systems, installations and equipment and industrial products - Structuring principles and reference designations shows ways of structuring information about systems and the formation of reference designations: on (formerly device tag ). It is also published as DIN standard. Previously, the standard was performed as EN 61346 or IEC 61346, with the new edition in May 2010 was a renumbering of EN 81346 and IEC 81346th

Structure

The standard consists of two parts and two supplementary sheets:

  • EN 81346-1: General rules (IEC 81346-1:2009 )
  • EN 81346-2: Classification of objects and codes for classes (IEC 81346-2:2009 )

The supplementary sheets application guidelines (IEC / TR 61346-3:2001 ) and considerations of concepts and their interrelationships (IEC 61346-4:1998 ) DIN EN 61346 to have been withdrawn without replacement in May 2010.

There are translations of the International Standard IEC 81346, issued by the IEC. The IEC 1997, the numbering of IEC publications changed and added to the standard numbers each 60000 used until 1997. Thus, the IEC 61346 has been published in 1996 still under the number IEC 1346, but was performed under IEC 61346.

As of 2010, the standards for reference designations as a joint IEC / ISO standard 80000 in - he issued ID band and then released under the number 81346.

Scope

Within the CV of industrial plants and systems a uniform reference indicator system is needed to all objects can always be clearly identified within the system for planning, design, implementation, operation, maintenance and disassembly.

The scope of the standard goes beyond the purely electrical engineering, with the aim to describe technical systems as a whole. Objects without electrical relevance ( eg mechanical elements) are thus considered as well as typical electrical properties ( eg, fuses, switches).

EN 81346-1

The first part shows how you can go about structuring. There are examples of structuring criteria, " aspect " mentioned pointed out. However, it is also possible to use other non -mentioned criteria. The structure obtained should allow for easy embedding into an overall system.

A strength of the defined in the standard concept of " aspect - objects" is that objects can be arranged simultaneously in different hierarchies and object identity is still guaranteed. Typically, a system is separated both from the functional aspect, and under the structure or product components aspect. Another useful aspect could be the spatial position of the components. One component, for example, has to fulfill two different functions f1 and f2, therefore, four aspects were assigned: one for the position within the product -component hierarchy, one for the mounting position and one for each of the functions f1 and f2. Computer-aided modeling tools that implement the concept of " aspect - objects" shall ensure that object identity is preserved, is no matter what hierarchy out access the " object occurrences ."

The requirements of the standard are very general to cover a wide range of applications. The terms used are abstract and are defined as follows:

In the standard, three different aspects ( perspectives ) of objects are distinguished.

  • What does the system or the object? (Functional aspect )
  • How is the system or the object made ​​of? (Product aspect )
  • Where is the system or the object? (Local aspect )

With regard to these three aspects of the standard describes the corresponding structures:

  • Function-related structural
  • Product-related structure
  • Location-based structure

For the identification of the aspects referred to by a reference indicator, the following signs are defined in the standard:

EN 81346-2

The second part shows how objects are classified and which letters are to be applied. The code letters are valid for both mechanical as well as electrical properties.

In EN 81346-2, code letters of the main classes are defined for the purpose and task objects. In addition, the code letters for sub-classes from the retracted DIN 6779-2 have been adopted. In contrast to DIN 40719-2 of 1978, the letters describe the function rather than the nature of the components.

Application of the standard

The standard is so far been slow, although compared to the previous standard IEC 750 offers distinct advantages. One of the reasons for this is that the previous fixed assignment of letters to device types (F for backup, K contactor, Q for circuit breakers, etc. ) has been changed and therefore the same unit could receive according to their function different letters (F for breaker as cable protection, Q for circuit breaker as a power switch ).

In CAx systems has the consequence that the code letters for symbols can not be assigned.

The standard is basic standard for other standards that are based on the principles of the standard, and this concrete for special applications:

  • In the ISO / TS 16952-1 ( Technical product documentation - Reference designation system - General application rules ) are rules on labeling for technical objects, ports, signals and their documents set.
  • In the RDS -PP ( Reference Designation System for Power Plants) proposals for EN 81348 similar label, while maintaining KKS keys for power plants to be defined.
