CHANGE REQUEST

Request identity number:

C00200

Applies to:

S01864

Type of request:

Technically new

Request status level:

Resolved

Proposal:

Introduce a new symbol for emergency switch for installation diagrams

Reason:

In IEC 60617 DB there is graphical symbol S00258 for presenting emergency switch or emergency stop. But the symbol is intended to applied in Circuit diagrams, Connection diagrams, Function diagrams, Overview diagrams but not in installation diagrams. This is logical because graphics in symbol S00258 is completely different than graphics in switch symbol family S00466- S00474 for installation diagrams. Graphical presentation in symbol S00258 is complex one, it applies four different symbols S00151, S00174, S00226, S00229. So it is not trivial how to construct such an unambiguous symbol for installation diagrams.

Emergency switch is device which has very important safety purpose. Therefore this object should have internationally standardized graphical symbol also for installation diagrams.

FI NC propose to standardize a new symbol for emergency switch for document kind “Installation diagrams”. In our proposal we take symbols S00466 and S00174 and combine it to have following graphical presentation.

General comments:


Comments at evaluation:

FI(ARSI): FI NC support the proposal. Normal database procedure

DE(RESC): DE NC agrees with the normal database procedure

JP(HIKE): (1) The proposed graphical symbol is for "switch". The switch should be in the standardized form.
(2) Since it is for emergency switch/stop, the existing symbol S00258 should be referred to as alternative form (Form 2) because of the same title and a simplified one.

AT(WGAS): AT NC gives the following comment: This symbol is a combination of existing symbols therefore is no need for a new symbol.

SE(TOHA): SE NC support the proposal. Normal database procedure

NO (ES): NO NC support the proposal. Normal database procedure
------------------------------------------------
Secretary comment: According the majority of the votes the CR will follow the normal procedure but before the validation starts the relation to symbol with same name and function for use in electric circuit diagram be clarified.
-------------------------------------------------
C00200 will be put "on hold" waiting for the result of C00206. The continuation will be dependant on this CR.
-------------------------------------------------Secretary comment: The voting on C00206 resulted in a decision to go to Extended Database Procedure which also includes this CR.
