PREFACE

This standard has been prepared by IEC Technical Committee No. 18: Electrical Installations in Ships.

It forms a part of IEC Publication 92, which deals with electrical installations in ships.

The first edition of this publication was published in 1957.

A second edition consisted of six parts and was published in 1964 (Publication 92-1) and in 1965 (Publications 92-2, 92-3, 92-4, 92-5 and 92-6).

This third edition supersedes the second edition with the exception of Chapter X of Publication 92-3: Part 3: Cables (construction, testing and installation), which is under consideration. (Please see therefore the latest edition of theCatalogue of Publications.)
