IEC 62561-4:2017

IEC 62561-4:2010 deals with the requirements and tests for metallic and non-metallic conductor fasteners that are used in conjunction with the air termination, down conductor and earth termination system. This standard does not cover the fixing of conductor fasteners to the fabric/membrane/gravel roofing of structures due to the vast number and types used in modern day construction. LPSC may also be suitable for use in hazardous atmospheres. Regard should then be taken of the extra requirements necessary for the components to be installed in such conditions.

IEC 62561-4:2023 deals with the requirements and tests for metallic and non-metallic conductor fasteners that are used to retain and support the air-termination, down-conductor and earth-termination systems. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) alignment with the latest edition of ISO IEC 60068-2-52:2017 relating to salt mist atmosphere treatment; b) alignment with the new edition of ISO 22479:2019 relating to humid sulphurous atmosphere treatment; c) new normative annex for the applicability of previous tests.
